Today while I was looking at Blazers Edge, I came across a report that Cleveland was thinking about sending Wally Szcerbiak and Anderson Varejao to Miami for Shawn "The Matrix" Marion. If this trade comes to fruition, I don't understand the logic of this trade for the Cavs. Varajao is one of the Cavs' best post defenders and setter of screens. He doesn't need the ball to help the team out. Marion was in the perfect situation in Phoenix for a player with his skill set and all he could think of was how he wasn't getting the respect he deserved. Is going to Cleveland where we certainly would be in the shadow of LeBron going to make him happy? If he wasn't happy with Steve Nash throwing him alley-oops what is there to suggest that he is going to be happy watching LeBron dunk on people? I don't think there is anything to support the notion that he would.If the Cavs are concerned about improving their team, a move that is much more likely to work would be to spin Wally's contract off for a better shooter, like Michael Redd.
