I'd trade them Marvin in a second for a 1st rounder in 2013. I don't think we could do that until mid-December though, right?

Yep. December 15. Would you do that trade because you're down on Marvin or for some other reason?

Because imo, we're too deep (Burks, Kanter and Favors need more time) and we pretty much know Marvin's ceiling and I don't think he's going to be a starter for a title team. Most importantly though, I want to stockpile picks for this draft and/or next. With three 1sts in this draft, we could really stockpile talent, maybe even move up for Shabazz.

**** no I wouldn't do that. I would rather re-sign Marvin. He is better than anything we can get with a mid-1st round pick.

I don't think we'd be able to get Shabazz unless we gave up Favors. Not that I'd be against that idea, just saying I don't think 3 first rounders would be enough to move up into the top 2.
