So after two weeks you're ready to give up on a player? This is a really stupid question. If you are seriously considering making this move then you should play a different fantasy game. One that requires less patience.

I don't think it's a stupid question. I, too, bought into the Bruce hype since last year. I think Bruce is a season away before he can be considered a stud. I would take Duncan right now. At best, Bruce may end the season with similar stats or less.

try 1 year + 2 weeks.

you know, I thought I had him for 2 years, not 1. He was not around until last year, my mistake.

I was confusing him with Gordon, who I have been waiting on for 2+ years. I invest too much in promise rather than results.

Duncan is providing results now , so not really a stupid question.

thanks for your input ....

That'd be a dumb trade.....don't do it. Duncan is an FA in my league -- bruce was a keeper. Atleast try to shop him for something better.

Well, he is a FA in my league also, but I was just trimming down the post. I would actually get Maybin and a pick, and would drop Maybin for Duncan.

In our scoring ( I know its early) Bruce has 27 points, Duncan 66. That alone would move me from 11th to 8th
