I would love to get Kirilenko and to keep Bargs, but Toronto would be incredibly weak at SG. ANd 3 point shooting would hardly be a strength for us any more.

Jamario Moon (a SF in every way), Joey Graham, and Hassan Adams would be our SG rotation, yuck!!

No way Utah does this... Kirilinko has been playing great for Utah off the bench. They don't need a 3 point specialist they already have Korver and I don't see much use of Parker either.

Trade makes absolutely no sense.

If Toronto is to trade for AK, I would think JO and Moon would have to be the main pieces going to the Jazz. Not sure if we make the best trading partners.

Would the Jazz trade Korver and Harpring for Parker, Kapono, and Moon/Graham though??

Who plays the 5 for us? JO when he plays is a good body for us provides defense and rebounding and some shotblocking. AK47 is a great defender at the 3 but we don't have the contracts to match it unless they want the horrid Kapono, Parker and Graham but that puts us at 11 bodies we can't do that the league would give us 24 or 48 hours to sign 2 more.

The trade is bad for Utah they don't need Kapono when they have a better player in Korver and they have Brewer and CJ Miles at the 2.

Kirilenko is the perfect fit for a team with Bargnani at centre, especially now that Andrea is playing well. Not to mention everything else he'd bring to the table that we need.

1. Like I said, we don't make the best trading partners.
2. Bargnani is our center of the future. If not, he should be traded by the deadline.
3. We'd probably be getting Jarron Collins as one of the fillers to match salaries. Bargs, Bosh, Hump, Collins, and AK (in spot back-up minutes) is more than enough to cover the front court.
