    he's asking way more than he worth.

    let's try steal Andrei Kirilenko from Utah.
    this guy impressed me last summer. He's smart, athletic, can shoot, and plays excellent defense. he can score and rebound as well as Rashard plus he plays better D and is cheap for 3 more years.
    here's his #s for last season:

    MPG FG% 3P% FTM-A FT% OFF DEF TOT APG SPG BPG PPG
    26.2 .450 .250 285-371 .768 1.80 3.10 4.90 1.1 1.41 1.94 10.7

    transfer that into 39 min/ would be 16pt/7.3reb/1.6asi/2.1stl/2.9blk

    The Jazz just signed Matt Harpring so I think kirilenko "MAYBE" available.
    Utah needs depth behind Stockton and Malone. We are jamed at 1 and 4. therefore, a K.T.+right to Madox for Kirilenko might workout. Collier and Amaechi needs to be throw in for cap purpose:

    Houston trades:
    PF Kenny Thomas
    PF Jason Collier
    Houston receives:
    C John Amaechi
    SF Andrei Kirilenko

    Utah trades:
    C John Amaechi
    SF Andrei Kirilenko
    Utah receives:
    PF Kenny Thomas
    PF Jason Collier


    TRADE ACCEPTED

    our lineup for this season would be:

    Cato........Yao Ming..Amaechi
    Griffin......Taylor.......Morris
    Kirilenko..Nachbar...Rice
    Mobley....Torres
    Francis....Norris.......Brown

    next year trade Mobley+Griffin+Taylor for Duncan, Rice+picks for B. Barry+Booth, and sign B. Miller. we have the best team all time:

    Yao Ming, Cato
    Duncan, Miller
    Kirilenko, Nachbar
    Barry, Torres
    Francis, Norris

    yeah, having fun dreaming in the summer.

    i would like to have Andrei Kirilenko. but he isnt moving from the jazz. even for kenny, collier, and a chance to get rid of amaechi.


    i was with you on that trade, but then you just lost me with the rest. at least you can say that you are creative :p

    The Jazz and their detestful fans have the same high opinion of Kirilenko that we have of Eddie Griffin. They wouldn't trade him for just Kenny Thomas and scrub Jason Collier. Although the dreamcasting was nice though.

    I'll admit this Kirilenko is gonna be nice, dude has some skills. I agree with those that say that we have no shot at him. I gotta admit Kenny Thomas does seem like he would fit well with the Jazz though.

    TAKING HEAT, NNNOOOO!!! :mad:

    lol

    The Jazz hold Kirilenko in high esteem.They let Marshall go, thus making him their starting small forward.Harpring is a backup.
    Kirilenko is part of their foundation for the future.

    yeah kirilenko is a good player. He won't be an awsome scorer but he will be a hell of a defender. Him on the rockets would make us have the best defensive front court in the nba.

    AK is the best young defender I've seen in a LONG time
