Awesome AK article.. To all the nay-sayers.

He doesn't--because he's not omniscient lol.

But the fact that Utah almost did trade him before suggests that they wouldn't completely rule out trading him again.

But if the opportunity presents itself again, it'll be tough to carry out if Kiri is playing well.

If it does happen, and Kiri is carried away to another team, hopefully the other wings will have ripened a bit more by then.

[I don't think there are a lot of teams who would like to take on Kiri. And Denver was foolish IMHO not to unload Crymelo when they could--not in order to get Kiri, but rather to get a good big man in Favors. Now they might possibly end up empty-handed, although New York might cobble together some garbage that the Nugheads end up settleing for.

People have been saying this for years. AK in trade talks, AK in trade talks!!

Then nothing happens.

Amazing.
 
AK does bring an untapped energy to our team and combines it with NBA talent, unlike a player like, say, Price. He's normally irreplaceable, but not at $17M/year.

Hate to say it, but it would not surprise me if he bolts for Russia and more $$$ next season.

And by Russia, you mean the New Jersey, soon to be Brooklyn, Nyets.
Prokhorov has already been pimpin the team in Russia. To sign Russia's best known basketball player seems like a no-brainer. He'll make up AK's salary in marketing revenue. Every bball fan in Russia will become a fan of the Nets, even if AK comes off the bench.

There will be some money or bene's offered under the table to AK. Stern can't control what goes on outside the U.S. Besides, he's a whore...he'll look the other way if it means advancing interest in the NBA in another country.

If AK has a great - or even good - year, he'll get a full MLE offer from New Jersey.

He might get more than the MLE. New Jersey foolishly gave Travis Outlaw $7 million

Probably should have said, full MLE is the minimum. New Jersey will go hard after Anthony. If they sign Carmelo, then they'd only have the MLE left. But that would certainly make them a very good team: Lopez, Anthony and AK, with Favors and Outlaw as the backup forwards. I think they'd then look to trade Murphy. Harris and Farmar is a pretty good tandem at PG. Their biggest weakness would be at SG. They'd need Morrow or Terence Williams to develop.
