AK played with an injury, yesterday. I think that could affect his game on the floor. Anyway, overally speaking, AK is payed that enormous money to perform, he has to contribute to the team somehow and I think nobody here is pleased with the way AK has been playing lately. AK should be happy with the money he gets and better make us happy with his game on the floor which the reason why he wears that uniform. I have never understood that so-called "motivation" and "being happy or unhappy" stuff. you earn your spot by your game, not your name.
I have nothing against AK, why would I have? I watched him when he was in Europe, he has everything he needs to be an all-star, an impact player but when you are the first person to leave the scrimmages, workouts, how much of your capacity can you utilize consistently to help your team which needs you to perform at a high level. I think he is a big part of the puzzle and when he is on, the Jazz offense, defense, just about everything gets smoother, better, more efficient. However, the crucial question is "when he is on".
