Just a little idea that I'm almost positive the bucks would do and I think the suns would consider.
Redd, simmons, and villenueva
for
Marion, Bell, Skinner, and Piatkowski
Suns get a sharpshooter in redd and a young PF in CV. Maybe Simmons would benifit from a change of scenery back in the west, who knows.
Bucks gain a wing defender in Bell and a great SF. Skinner is the kind of hard worker that would be good backing up Yi. piatkowski is filler.

Mo/Ivey
R. Bell/ C. bell
Marion/dez
Yi/skinner
Bogut/ruffin
Pho
Nash
Redd (or Barbosa, with Redd at SF)
Hill
Diaw
Amare
just as a final thought, i seem to recall that marion can opt out after this year, is that correct? if so the bucks would probably ask for a #1 in return as well, so that may be a deal breaker.
feedback would be excellent

I was thinking about this deal today and various 3-way scenarios if the Suns don't want Redd back.
As a Bucks fan, the only hesitation I have is Marion's contract situation. We can't afford another Payton type trade. If we are confident (and right this time
) that we can resign Marion, I'd definitely do it.

Me neither although allegedly (by some reputable sources) the Bucks shot down a #6 pick/Simmons for Marion trade in the off-season.
