My team is pretty much set for the playoffs, but I'm thinking of making one last trade for balance purposes. When it comes down to it, here are my concerns for each:

Kyle Korver:

- Once Lou Williams went down for the season, he has been on a tear. However, he was once getting 35+ minutes per game and contributing in many categories, but now he's down to about 26-33 minutes per game and no longer in the starting lineup. I'm not sure what his future outlook is, as he won't be as productive as he has been recently if he's not getting the 35+ minutes he was accustomed to during his great run.

Kawhi Leonard:

- While, his recent numbers have been stellar, a lot of those numbers were accumulated when either Duncan, Parker and/or Ginobili or all of them were out. He had a couple of games when they were all playing, but it hasn't been when either of those 3 were getting their full normal minutes (as they are being eased back from injuries). What happens to Kawhi when those 3 are giving back their full normal minutes? I still see Kawhi starting, but does he go back to the production closer to what he was getting earlier in the season and not the tear he has been on recently?

- What happens during the last couple of weeks of regular season when Popovich decides to rest his starters? Is Kawhi part of that resting rotation?

3 options:

1. Fair Trade

2. Advantage: Team getting Kawhi Leonard

3. Advantage: Team getting Kyle Korver

Who would you rather have? Both players carry some volatility and risk down the road.

It's a pretty easy solution, since they have VERY similar statlines: Does your team need steals or 3's?

I'd take whichever one helps your team to win an extra category against your main rivals. Neither one of them is going to really hurt you, that's where a lot of their value comes from as they are both extremely efficient.

Playoff sch. is your tie breaker. Who ever plays more games as a starter during your playoff sch. is the guy i would want.
