The way he's been playing, it won't be too painful a process.
I highly doubt we'd get any draft picks in a Kirilenko deal. If anything, we'd be giving out a second rounder as an incentive to our trade partner for paying the difference between his contract and whoever we get back.
That or we take back contracts that extend into next season. For a team looking to make a splash in free agency this summer, taking on AK's contract to get rid of a few 2 year contracts might be enticing. Problem is this summer doesn't have such a great free agent class. Last year we would've gotten far better deals if he had been expiring then.
Right. I can't think of any teams that are itching to be major off-season players.
