CNNSI is reporting rumors of a Kirlenko for Richard Jefferson trade. That might actually make a lot of sense for both teams.


True. They could play AK at the 4 since they play uptempo anyway. Utah certainly is weak at the 2/3.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

Look at the Nets current lineup:

PG - Kidd

SG - Carter

SF - RJeff

PF - Krstic

C - Magloire

6th man - Marcus Williams

Bench - Jason Collins + others

So their bench isn't deep, but they currently have a solid player at each of the 5 positions. If they trade RJeff for AK, then who do they play at SF? Does AK play SF? Does AK play PF next to Krstic and push Mags to the bench?

Plus you have to take AK's attitude into consideration.

I don't think that Rod Thorn is gonna do this deal. Right now he is just waiting for Jermaine O'Neal to fall into his lap.

With their existing roster, I would start a combination of former first rounder Antoine Wright and Bostjan Nachbar at SF.

Kristic and Magloire will be the team's centers. Kristic can play some PF and Kiri some SF but Kirilenko needs to be at PF and not SF most of the time.

Rod Thorn needs to ask himself what he has to offer for Jermaine. When he realizes the answer is "Richard Jefferson," he will realize that he doesn't have a prayer of getting that deal done.
