Hold your horses. West coast Sonic fan here. I will be the first to say that Ridnour is a point guard in the old school mode, crisp passer, smart, hard working. All of this works good for a team with great shooters. He is my favorite player, been following him since College. Seattle would not trade him for Marbury because of Marbury's contract, not his talent. The sonics are very cost conscious. They would never add 15 Mil to the Salary and pay the cap penalty. Never ever. That being said, Marbury would make this team elite, as in 60 wins. But then again so would Shaq.
Marbury is a nice player, not a true PG, more of a scoring PG; Rid is more of a true PG, and not the best defender, but a tireless worker and a great team guy. If you guys want to trade him to us straight across, We as the fans would love to have him. But we would also love to trade Danny Fortson for Shaq straight across too. That will never happen either.
And as an aside, we wouldn't trade a ball boy for Jerome James.
