5/1/11- Greg Miller Interview- not looking good for AK coming back

I think AK has lowered the value of AK more than anything that Greg Miller says

This. Lol at anyone who thinks AK's value hasn't been lowered already. Greg Miller is just speaking from the hip here.
He is knocking him. Doesn't sound like he wants him back. These arent the kinds of things you say about a guy you are about to resign.

SWWEEEEETTTT!

Keep AK outta here!

I hope he either goes back to Russia...

Or goes to one of our rivals. That way, we'll get to play 5 on 4 for the games that he's actually healthy for.
 
I don't mind him in Orem. Win-win.
 
Regarding the draft, he said the team wants to get "bigger and better shooting". So we can expect one of the picks, most likely the first one, to be a C.

Our the Jazz drafting a Center or maybe trading Millsap for Peitrus/Lopez. With that trade we get better shooting and get Bigger? And it was a pretty good interview. I liked what he said about Jimmer. "Its about winning and once were doing that, were fill the seats"
 
I'm as loud a mouth as you'll find when it comes to the Jazz not re-signing the turd, but there's no (good) reason to drag the guy through the mud. But what can you expect from a guy that has inherited everything and earned nothing?
 
I would be fine if they signed AK for the veterans minimum.
Unless we can get someone that makes as much of a defensive difference for 65 games for about that price it is still worth it.
He is a great passer, and his shot is not as bad as people make it sound.
I still would much rather have him than have them take the option on CJ.
65 games of AK is better than 82 games of CJ.

How was Greg expressing concerns over AK's durability dragging him through the mud?

If he really said something to the effect of "I think AK is faking or milking injuries for some reason, probably because he's a sissy." then that is highly insulting. Even if he was a little more discrete with his language, saying you are skeptical of the severity of someone's injury TO THE PRESS is a diss or a call-out at absolute best.

Most importantly, I cannot find a purpose for it. The guy's a UFA, is it really important to get in some arbitrary parting shot? Because it's either that, or the FO is stupid enough to think this could hurt his market-value (it won't) and increase the chance they re-sign him for cheaper.

I've seen a lot of people mentioning this Millsap for Peitrus/Lopez deal. Does this idea have any credence, or is it just a popular idea that someone on JazzFanz threw out there?
 
I thought that is what the Suns offered the Jazz for Millsap at the trade deadline last year.
I doubt the Jazz would go for it now, unless they believe Favors should start over Millsap
 
If im the Jazz I call up and ask for Jared Dudley and Robin Lopez for Millsap. They both fit a need and Dudley played some amazing ball at the end of the season.
