AK on Eurobasket All-Tournament Team

LOL ... AK averaged just under 3 steals / game in less than 30 mpg and 15 ppg that included a game he had only 2 points -- he played even better in the big games. No way, if he's used right, that we should let him go ... and yes, he needs to start. Hayward isn't ready and CJ just is not as good.

And how exactly, would we "use him right"? Because to me, re-signing Kirilenko will mean parking his *** on the bench next season.
 
Unless we decide to be a run and gun team, there is no reason to keep AK around. Let him go back to The Motherland.

I happen to like AK, but it's hard to use him right when he's wearing a suit on the sidelines.
 
I like AK as much as the next AK apologist, but I don't see any point in a non-contending/rebuilding team to sign a 30 year old veteran.
 
If there is NBA season ( and that is big if ) AK should sign with other team. Jazz are rebuilding, unless he wants to stay loyal to Utah and does not want to move his family he might sign with Jazz for 6-7mil a year, but I bet some contenders will be interested in his services for that price as well.
 
AK is a good player, but no longer fits into the plans. The average age of our core is like 22, and that's being generous and including Millsap.
 
People who wants Big al to stay in the team, why they dont want AK i dont understand? They say we have inexperienced big man, Kanter and Favors so Big al should stay no matter what but we dont even have a legit SF. Hayward is much better at SG than SF and CJ is too weak to guard strong SFs in the league. For me it is much more logical to let AK stay than Big al. At least he wont take 15 million a year anymore. A player like AK with mid level contract is like an indian silk which is something you cant find as much as you try.
