The Cavs and the Heat are discussing a deal in which the Cavs would send Anderson Varejao and Wally Szczerbiak to the Heat in exchange for Shawn Marion.

This would be a great deal for the Cavs in my opinion...thoughts?

This is just a rumor!!! They just said on espnews

[nadeau01_johnson48]

...of course it's just a rumor.

But if ESPN and Yahoo Sports are talking about it, at least it's a legit rumor.

Which means it could potentially happen.

Windhorst Beat Blog: Marion trade rumor untrue
Posted by Brian Windhorst/Plain Dealer Reporter December 16, 2008 16:57PM

There's been a lot of interest today in a story from Yahoo! Sports on talks the Cavs are supposedly having with the Miami Heat over an Anderson Varejao & Wally Szczerbiak/Shawn Marion trade.

You never say never in the NBA, perhaps circumstances will change. But as of right now the Cavs and Heat are not in trade talks concerning Marion and Varejao. This is from multiple team sources. That is just so you know I'm not making it up or whatever, but it makes sense if you just think about it.

Right now the Cavs are not sure what they want to do but they don't want to mess with this team's chemistry. They are considering their options, but history tells us that teams don't really get serious about trading for expiring contracts (which is what the Cavs have to use) until near the trading deadline. That is a long way away and options will be discussed for those months.

What the Cavs need is another big man and Marion isn't a big man and Varejao is. So if they made such a deal they'd be in worse shape. Which is why I said before, it doesn't make much sense.

Also, if the Cavs are going to use Wally Szczerbiak's contract they are going to go for a home run. This next trade very well may be the most important in Cavs history. So it has to be just right. I will write about this a lot more in the coming weeks, just know that right now this rumor isn't true.

idk marion aint too good since he left the suns

I usually ALWAYS agree with Windhorst, but c'mon Brian.

Sure, Marion isn't a big, but in all actuality, neither is Varejao. He can't play center in the NBA.
