To the AK haters

You're wrong... its obvious the Jazz should re-sign him and here's why... 1. The Jazz are way better with him in the lineup (I'm quoting Corbin on that) He is their best defender(one of the few guys in the league that can guard Durant), best passer, and best facilitator of an offense that may not change much due to the shortened preseason.2. They have a legit chance to be a playoff team with him in the lineup, without him the chances diminish considerably. As far as the notion that he will hinder the rebuilding effort, taking playing time from the kids... honestly the most damaging thing to the Jazz' future at this point would be to lose a lot of games, have a lot empty seats and lose more money. 3.AK actually helps Hayward's development by allowing him to play the 2 where he looked great at the end of year. Pairing those two together would make them long, athletic on the wings. They both shot the 3 well last year, they both can put it on the floor and pass and they both stay in front of people defensively. 4.) You can't get anyone comparable to him with a mid-level exception, no way someone like Prince comes here for that 5) He wants to come back for less than market value- how many guys have been that loyal to Utah?

I understand management may go a different direction because of his history of injury, but the positives of bringing him back far outweigh the risk and i think it would be a big mistake not to.

AK is like a unique indian silk if he agrees to a mid level exception
 
Also, we don't want him to influence our golden boy Hayward. If we sign him, Hayward would most likely show up with a starcraft tat on his back or whatever the hell that games called.

...in addition to the desecrating tat....he'd be teaching him how to launch ill-advised 3's, gamble on defense, and brick layups!

Why do we want a player that will take PT away from a younger player?

Why do we want our young players to be around a bum?

I say, rebuild this team the way we want it rebuilt. Hard work, dedication, and toughness. Lets build a team that can compete in the next few years. AK doesn't help us with that.

Sure, why we would want to win and get to playoffs now? Lets play young players and get another lottery pick which O'Connor will screw up anyway.
 
What would be refreshing is if there was a clause in the the new CBA that allowed contracts to be prorated according to the number of games missed due to injury. Particularly for players who have a history of injuries. Guaranteeing contracts for players who don't play is completely asinine.
 
I heard he is out with injury for at least a month, and knowing AK it could be longer. In a short season that's not good. How much money do the jazz have to spend. With his injury and a shortened season he's not worth the mid level.

AK is out for at least a month already!

Knowing AK, that month will turn into at least twice that... followed by another sprained ankle or broken wrist sometime in the month of Feb/March.

In a shortened season, he's not going to help us at all.

In the short or long term, the benefits of having AK on this team are minimal.

AK is like that GF that isn't very good looking yet, for some of you, he was your first GF...

So you know he's not THEE ONE. Yet, you don't want to break up indefinitely.

Folks, get over it.

Ak will not help us at all? That is ridiculous considering who we have at wing right now. I would say though to re-sign him he would need to give a discount for the games he will miss.

Umm, what did you say right before that? Also I think he would be a big help. You are right though he is injured an awful lot, but wrong on how much time he is supposed to miss. Perhaps you should learn how to read.
