One of the worst defenders? That's an overstatement. Defense isn't his calling card, but it's not far off from other SGs like Ray Allen. His assist and rebounds have really improved this year now that he's started a to train in the off season and lost about 15lbs from 2006/2007.

That being said, there's no way we trade for him w/o giving up either Roy/LMA/Oden. Still a combo of Roy & Redd would be on par with Ray Allen & Paul Pierce in terms of a matchup nightmare.
