I guess playing with Kidd and Nash back-to-back can give you a reputation that you're good.
Marion is an upgraded Bowen, and every team can use that. He is a two way player that can guard up to 4 positions with his strength and length.

What isn't to like?

No he isn't a superstar that can offensively create, but he is a very good player.

A list of players he belongs in the same category with:
Prince, Kirilenko, Josh Howard, Bowen, Deng, RLewis --- not quite max players, but close.
