Desnews: Jazz talking to Watson and AK

I am an AK fan, but there comes a time when you have to put Ol' Yeller down. On the flip side, if there's ever been a season to sign him, this is it. He can play his usual 66 games this year.
 
JSL is actually right, Jason Kapono is NOT worth 4 million. In fact, he is a free gent if Im not mistaken, and the Lakers wanna sign him for 1.3 million a year. There goes your comparison. Better luck next time.

lol, like my point was that Kapono is worth that money....reason I mentioned him is that 4 mil is nothing in these days - teams are wasting such money on scrubs like Kapono and dude thinks AK is not worth 4 mil which is ridiculous. AK will easily get his 7-8 mil and some crazy team may even offer him something in 9-10 mil range. So when somebody posts delusional numbers like 4 mil it is obvious they had no clue what even useless players like Kapono make in NBA these days.

You are correct. He will likely get that kind of contract if he comes back to the NBA. So to some other team he will be worth more than $4 million. Nice for them and for AK. He is absolutely NOT worth more than $4-5 million on the Jazz. And that is a fact.
 
AK can still play. Has been tearing it up in Russis. He will make more than 4 million a year and is worth more than 4 million a year.

Jesus, some morans on this board never cease to amaze me. AK's been tearing it up, brace yourself, IN RUSSIA!!! Who gives a ****. He's proven, yes proven, over the last four or five years that he can't avoid injury, can't play good ball even close to night in and night out, and can't develop or hone his craft at all. AT ALL. The dude is a serious bitch who needs to stay over in Russia. I'd consider signing him at something like two years, 12M which in my opinion is overppaying but he may like the idea of coming back here and still having the chance, two years from now, of getting one more solid contract, and not pushing himself to the brink now in that regard. And we should like the idea of having him at a decent price tag. He'd be very good trade bait for some team looking to get a defensive stopper and/or for the playoffs.

I think you calling someone a moran is very ironic. Why do you have to make things personal jackass? Is basketball that serious to you. Get a life!!!

Who made it personal? You made a truly moranic statement about AK tearing it up in Russia as if that **** means something. If you can't see that's moranic, then it would seem you have little hope. Less than AK has of being a man again anyway.

I think some team might offer AK $8mm/year. If he were in the right situation, he might be worth Stephen Jackson money. Problem is, he's injury prone, so he'll probably be in the $7 - $8mm range. I wouldn't expect him to get less than that, really.

How is that moranic smart ***? Clearly AK is still a good player and if you think our wing postion is in good shape you truly are the idiot you seem to be.
 
I would only want AK re-signed for the same reason I wanted Miles' option picked up (hypothetically): as trade bait.

SalmonHobo I think you gave a lot with your last post and people aren't seeing it. Its a shame really. For at least two years when I started paying attention your hate for AK was palpable. Yet today you propose re-signing him for 6 million a year for two years. That shows me you at least understand that AK has some real marketable skills. I agree. You sir are also right that AK is very injury prone.

I in fact love AK's game and want him back at the right price. For me its 3 years 15 million. If he wont take it then the Jazz should move on. Its sad to say, but if you value AK like I do around 8 million and reduce his price for inevitable injury and a little home town discount you come out to five million a year.
