Why isn't Blatt giving Marion a shot, especially when our defense goes south and/or Lebron needs a rest? I just don't get it.
Any updates on Marion? Did he retire and we missed it? Seems like he'd be a good fit as a third big to match up against Atlanta's small front court. Should be able to defend spots 2-5 against the Hawks.
Not sure what happened to Marion, because early in the season he seemed to have a lot of Blatt's trust. Blatt plugged him in to improve D. but since Marion's injury and Shump proved himself a D force there just hasn't seemed to be time for him. I mean there seemed to be time for him to me. but not Blatt.
This is my tidbit of news -- Marion has been staying after practice doing extra shooting the last couple times I've been there since Bulls. In comparison, Mike Miller, who I've been trying to interview is gone immediately after practice and never there when press arrives. It would seem one guy has accepted his fate and another has not.

Would love just for the heck of it to see Moz/TT, Shump, Smith, Marion, Lebron, Delly lineup. Marion definitely has shown flashes of the fountain of the youth when healthy and that lineup could have potential to best defensive lineup any team could throw out there including GS. 4 and if TT is in there each guy who could guard 3 or even 4 different positions
