What do you guys think about Andrei Kirilenko?

Question

He's one of my favorite players

Answer 1

AK47 is a beast, but he's had his issues of late.  Everyone still realizes his potential, and he'll eventually play somewhere else.  Jerry Sloan hates the kid, and he hates Utah...so he'll be on another team soon enough.  Plus he's a pimp...how many players do you know that admit to swinging?

And in response to the guy above me and his top 5 players in the NBA: ARE YOU KIDDING ME???? That's hilarious

Answer 2

I think he's an awesome all around player.

"Ryanhew" is right, he doesn't really fit with Utah anymore since he doesn't play the PF spot as regularly since before Boozer was singed.

Before and Boozer and Okur came, Kirelinko was a PF and used to average around 17 points, 8 rebounds, 3 blocks and 2 steals a game.

Now that he's a SF he's only getting 11 points, 4 rebounds, 2 blocks and 1 steal.

I'd really like to see him with Phoenix in Marion's old role. He'd excel in that role.  

Answer 3

Hes a good player very athletic and he is a great defender Hes the type a player that can give you 17 points 7 rebounds 1 or 2 blocks a game

Answer 4

an all around player just what a coach wants..but i still believe he doesnt fit the jazz..he struggles with his role..i think he is better to what sloan is expected him to be..

Answer 5

Decent In Offense

A MONSTER In Defense (Blocks\Steals)

And Makes some Beautiful things too

Answer 6

He is also my favorite player. In fact, top 5 favorite players in the NBA.

It looks like this:

1. Kobe Bryant

2. Gilbert Arenas

3. Deron Williams

4. Andrei Kirilenko

5. Michael Redd

Answer 7

He's also one of my favorite players, and many people recognize his great defense and solid offense, but not many people notice that he's a great passer too. He makes creative passes and sees the whole court.

Obviously, if the Jazz didn't have really good players: Deron Williams, Carlos Boozer; Kirilenko would have been able to score up to 20 ppg.

Although he has on/off days, most of his off days are when he doesn't get the ball too much. All in all, he is a very good player.

Answer 8

He's definetely underated, because he can dunk, play defense, block shots and shoot at a good percentage!

Answer 9

his pretty good but needs to develop a better jump shot

Answer 10

Defensively a solid player, although he is good mainly because of his build, length, wingspan, not the fastest guy on the court, so a lebron or shawn marion would blow right by him, he does have glimpses of offense with a solid 3 player with peja-like 3-pters, but all around he needs to become more athletic to be a "great" player

Answer 11

i think hes great. so good on defense and given the chance his offense is really strong too. i dont think utah is a great fit for him tho. i think he he and marion should be involved in some sort of trade. both teams could potentialy benifit from this as i think they are a better fit for the opposite team.

Answer 12

Great defensive player!.... He could block!... He steals!.... He does almost everything!...

He is also a consistent player!... Before Deron Williams and Carlos Boozer showcased their talents on the team Andrei Kirilenko was there for the Jazz when they needed points.... But now that D-Will and Carlos Boozer are there I think he gave way to them and he gets overshadowed...
