Would you do this?
It might take Marv + Speedy + 1t 09 for Butler and filler (to be released) .

Al - Zaza- Randolph
Smoothe - Jones - Othello
Butler - Mo
JJ -Flip-Mario
Bibby -Law

Not a bad starting 5.

Washington would be dumb to consider trading Butler. His contract is very cheap for his production. I also think trade scenarios are the farthest thing from Hawks fans minds right now.

Wizards would probably want Marvin + Law and 1st rnd, but they wont trade him anyways.

As a wizards fan, all I have to say is LOL.

It would take Josh Smith at the least, and even then I highly doubt we'd do it.

You could get Rasul Butler, Jackie Butler & Benson (Robert Guillaume).

Ummm, there's not a player on the Wizards worth Smith. (Obviously, I'm not the biggest Arenas fan).

No, its a phenomenal starting five, but its also not gonna happen.

The Hawks can't give away their 09' pick so you are asking the Wiz to trade Butler for Marvin and a potential mid-late first in two years.

And mrh is right that the Hawks would veto a Butler-Smith trade before the Wiz, but yeah, Smith for Butler+pick would probably be what is necessary to get him.

Without arguing the merits of a Butler/Marvin trade specifically I love how other fans come on RealGM boards overinflating the value of their players who happen to be playing on winless ballclubs.


RealGM.... where childish happens.

actually, looking at the way Marvin has been playing so far , I would stay put and keep our pick.

yeah, but a winless ballclub doesnt mean the player isnt worth it. Caron is an All-Star and a great player. When Joe came in we were winless, but he is still an all-star.
