What a crybaby. Tell that nigga to stick it out in Utah till they trade him.
^ that'd be dope but they'd want more than we could afford to offer. If anything I can see the Suns swapping him for Marion.
Lakers might pursue him.

If anything I can see the Suns swapping him for Marion.That would bring the defense those niggas lack. And it would get that unhappy, over-confident, jealous ass Marion out. Good deal to me. But their owner is so damn broke he wouldn't be in it, cause Kirilenko is making some serious cash over the next 4 years. The Suns will go for Jamison I think... or stay put.
Utah point guard Deron Williams wants Andrei Kirilenko back with the Jazz next season, but hopes his unhappy teammate brings an improved work ethic with him.In a Friday afternoon radio interview on 1280 The Zone, Williams told Salt Lake Tribune columnist Gordon Monson and co-host Kevin Graham that Kirilenko can be "a special player for us" if he returns with the right attitude.Referring to teammates Carlos Boozer and Mehmet Okur, Williams said, "You see Booz after practice shooting for 25 or 30 minutes. You see Memo shooting for 20 minutes. You see, you know, all the rookies. The young guys. You saw [Rafael Araujo] in there working. [Then] you see Andrei being the first one out the door."As the Jazz's quarterback, Williams admitted he has looked for other targets with his passes because of Kirilenko's approach to the game last season."If he's coming off a screen on one side and Matt [Harpring] is coming off a screen on one side, who do you think you're going to pass to?" Williams said."You think you're going to pass to the guy you see working every day in the gym or are you going to pass to the guy who never works on his shot but yet wants to shoot 'em every time?"Asked if Kirilenko's work ethic was a problem, Williams said, "I would say so."

I didn't know he wanted to be the main scoring option, I thought he was fine with being looked at as a great do it all player (ie: Gerald Wallace, Josh Smoth, Shawn Marion).
