AK-47 is not as good as Marion, trade for Marion, he’s the perfect fit for the Warriors

Well, sadly we can’t have it both ways. We either bite the bullet and pick up a huge salary that would kill our developing youth movement; or, we get an exceptionally talented and really ‘long’ defensive player who can run in Nellieball. So, it is either Nellieball or moneyball. I’m guessing Mully, unless AK really opts or gets bought out, will pass on rat tat tat.

AK47 would definitely be good for Golden State and Golden State would be good for AK47.

First off, the freedom that Nellie offers would satisfy and in turn calm AK47 down….when he is content, I doubt he is also a distraction. Secondly, he will be very fun to watch again, much like he was 2 and 3 years ago, when he was my favorite player.

As for GS benefiting, one word- DEFENSE! This team, like many of Nellie’s teams is not a team which will have a dominat defensive presence. However, despite this lacking team defense, AK47 will definately provide some defense and it won’t take motivation to make him want to do so.

There’s just no way, AK-47 is not going to void his contract and re-sign for half as much somewhere else. That’s not going to happen. I’m sure he’s trying to force a trade but just like with Garnett unless you want to give up Monta or Beidrins we don’t have enough of anything that anyone else wants. Mully has done a great job creating cap space and options for next year, he’s not going to mess that up for an overpaid less than Star player

Nice foul by Davis, looks like he is using AK’s head to boast himself up. AK should have gotten an assist on that one.

There is talk of a trade AK47 for Shawn Marion, instead of trading for AK, trade for Marion, he is still on the block.

If AK47 walked away from his contract for nothing like Fisher, I think he’d be doing the Jazz a favor.

Now if Utah has to buy AK47 out of his contract, then I could see them asking for something in return.

Anyone can void a contract as long as both parties agree. They can come to some kind of buyout agreement, but the operative word is agreement. The Jazz would have to sign off. I’m sure getting rid of $63 million would be good in their eyes. But do they want to lose him for nothing?

Newsflash- AK could void his contract! http://realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/48130/20070921/kirilenko_prepared_to_walk_away_from_$63_million/ If he's cheap, I say pick him up!!! But no way do I pay 60+ million for this guy. 4 years, 20-25 mill should be fine. He would love playin for the Warriors. And fun and love seems to be what he's looking for.

I think AK47′s style of play would fit in with the Warriors just fine. Unfortunately, his contract will create cap problems down the road.

btw – I was under the impression his wife was a pop star not a model (like Britney Spears)
