    I think he could still contribute at the nba level..

    In 2012, he led CSKA Moscow to the Euroleague Final[1], being named the competition's MVP, while earning an All-Euroleague First Team selection. He also won the Euroleague Defensive Player of the Year award the same year.

    I always liked AK47 even though he was a Jazz player lol. He says he would like to play for the Jazz or Nets. I would like for the Rockets to take a look at him but then again we really need a PG & Center which he plays neither. Besides Parsons will end up being a similar player to AK47.

    Kirilenko mulling NBA return: Free agent forward Andrei Kirilenko, who spent last season playing for CSKA Moscow, is still deciding whether he wishes to return to the United States to play in the NBA next season, according to the New York Post. Kirilenko signed a three-year contract with CSKA during the lockout, however he has an opt-out in his contract that would allow him to return to the NBA any time this summer, giving him plenty of time to make a decision. Kirilenko spent his entire NBA career with the Jazz, from 01-02 through 10-11.

    Nets should sign him for the minimuim. He wants to go there, he gets reunited with DWill and he's russians (many Russians in Brklyn)

    If Nets are smart, they'll also get Casspi for minimuim.

    Didn't he play for Utah?

    Oh, because we see how well that has worked for us in the past when we have signed players who have played for Utah.
