Exactly. Someone's got to cover up Nash and Amare defensively and Raja Bell can't do it alone. Not that anyone was ever going to confuse the Suns with a good defensive team, but the Suns were actually middle of the pack last year in terms of opponents field goal percentage. Moving Marion would put them back near the bottom and even if your calling card is offense, giving up more points doesn't make you better.
