I think the Hawks decline, even if it were Kurashev for Marino straight up (i.e., without also including a 3rd round pick to NJ)... Kurashev is younger, can play up and down the line-up, cheaper, and may still be growing his game. Who knows, he could even be a piece for the long term in the Hawks' rebuild.
I could see the Hawks being interested in Marino if they traded Murphy off (i.e., as Murph's replacement), but even then I'd want to find a different asset to trade for him.
Interesting idea, though! Thanks for posting it. Cheers
