That's what I read. I can't find the link now though. It makes no sense for him to go to NJ. He would make less money and have to go back to playing with Deron. You know the guy that called AK out in the media more than once I believe I read AK saying that he resigned with CSKA but has an out for the NBA. But yea, hardly any money in NJ.....then again, AK said he has enough----what is AK's desire??? | |

Not sure, but I wouldn't think it would be going back to play with Deron. The Nets owner is a very powerful man in Russia though. Maybe he made AK an "offer he can't refuse" This raises an issue that I have never understood. While there is a cap that limits how much Prokhorov can offer AK right now, 1.2 million according to that Mercury article, what are the NBA rules regarding making other types of offers outside basketball? Seems like it would be easy for Prokhorov to promise AK some post basketball career opportunities in Russia. And I always wondered about Stockton and Malone's "investment" in Larry Miller car dealerships. Did Larry give them a sweetheart deal that was in reality another form of compensation for staying and continuing to play basketball in Utah? | |
