Shawn Marion wants out of Phoenix. How do I know? He said so himself,
“I’m tired of hearing my name in trades,” Marion said by phone from his Chicago home Tuesday night. “I love my fans in Phoenix but I think it’s time for me to move on.”
I was going to write a post on this, but the post over at True Hoop is excellent, and I suggest you go read that instead.
If Marion does leave, it will be interesting to see what kind of money he gets. Apparently his biggest suitors are the Jazz (trade for Kirilenko maybe in the works?), the Lakers (trade for Odom?), or possibly the Heat (they will definitely be contenders with Wade and Shaq, if this happens). Marion has always been a player that, when you see him, you recognize that he’s good, but his name never comes up if you’re just naming superstar players off the top of your head. I honestly believe that he feels under appreciated in Phoenix…but, will a move to the Lakers or any of the above mentioned teams going to help? I don’t think he’d truly feel good about everything until he went to a horrible team where he was the only superstar (or at least the main superstar).
Marion is represented by Dan Fegan of Fegan & Associates. His contact information can be found here.
