NY gets:
Shawn Marion, Mark Blount

Miami gets:

It seems to be the perfect fit for both teams.

Miami:

Curry
Haslem
Beasley
Wade
Marbury

NY:

Randolph
Marion
Chandler
Crawford
Duhon

I may be the only one in the world but i like Blounts game too....

how about a simple Curry for Blount?

To convince Miami to do Curry for Blount, you have to convince them that Curry is a positive on the court (or sweeten the deal). Otherwise you are asking them to take on an extra year salary commitment for a negatively valued player.

To ask Miami to include a Marion for Marbury swap as part of the deal makes matters much worse.

that's the simple trade. Marion's a player but I'd rather develop Ill Will. I'm all for Curry for Blount. Good reclamation project for Riley.

How about a 2 for 1. Curry and Rose for Marion. We get back an expiring contract for 2 players we hardly use.
