Actually Kwame's defense is surprisingly good. Look at his performances against the best bigs in the NBA's, he does very well. Certainly better than Kurt Thomas did for you.
If you look at what your team was lacking last year, it wasn't offense. I really doubt that Diaw being gone would have much impact on the team. Having some guys that can legitimately guard guys like Tim Duncan, who absolutely torched you during the playoffs, might be the move that puts you over the top. And Lamar is a far better player than Marion on the offensive end. His only negative is if he can stay healthy the whole season.
Look I think every Suns fan agrees this team could use some more defense, but putting Kwame in that category is laughable IMO. Sure the guy is big, but he's not very smart on D and we already have a guy like that. Since you bring up the Suns defensive deficiencies, than how are they improving that aspect of their game by trading Marion for Odom? I hate to break it to you, but staying healthy is not the only negative of his game. I understand you're a Laker fan and you have reason to pimp those guys, but I don't think this is the place for that.
