I'm playing a head to head fantasy keepers league in Yahoo and I need some trade advice. I don't know what to do, I'm lacking Rebounds/Blocks and I'm good in the backcourt.

Sould I trade John Wall straight up for either Marc Gasol or Al Horford, I got the opportunity to make this 1-1 trade. Wall is hyped and obviously a star in the future. But I already got Curry and need blocks. The thing is I can also play CUrry at SG often.

My team, the Boston Celtics:
- Stephen Curry
- John Wall
- Jeff Teague
- Andre Igoudala
- Carmelo Anthony
- Chris Bosh
- Jared Dudley
- Jared Sullinger
- Andrea Bargnani
- Derrick Williams
- Kosta Koufos (gonna drop him I guess)
- Kelly Olynyk
- Tayshaun Prince
- Alec Burcs

So should I swap Wall for Horford or M. Gasol!?
Thanks in advance!!

Interesting categories.  In typical leagues, I'd trade Wall for Gasol or Horford almost no matter what my roster composition was.

But I see that you don't have fg% as a category which definitely makes Wall a more favorable player.  But it also has rebounds counted twice, which leans it back toward the big men to be acquired...

How many teams in this league?  If its a 12 team league, big men can be hard to come by, especially a young keepable one like Horford or Gasol.  In which case, I'd absolutely trade for the big guy since you already have Curry and only 1 good center so far in Bosh.

A side note:  So you have fgm, 3ptm, ftm, AND points all as separate categories?  4 of your 10 categories are directly related to volume scoring.  I don't really like this set up so much.

Thanks a lot!
Yeah 4 volume scoring cats! That's what makes my team pretty dangerous as with Wall, Curry and Anthony I have guys who can put up really big numbers. And I got a lot of 3 point shooters.

The league is 14 teams.

Wall is better in this fantasyleague than any other probably. Should I trade him then for Horford or M. Gasol? Gasol is maybe the higher ranked player in yahoo but I guess he is better in leagues with %
