AK on the way out?

Is Andrei Kirilenko destined to leave the Jazz sooner rather than later?

If the Jazz can get good value for AK, now might be the time for the Jazz to make a deal.

Now, what about a blockbuster? The Jazz have three guys that are prime trade bait (players not essential to the long-term success with high trade value): Kirilenko, Okur and Giricek.

Everybody knows the Jazz need a boost at shooting guard. Jamal Crawford could be a great addition if the Jazz think they could light a fire under him on the defensive end of the floor.

What about a blockbuster deal? AK and Okur for, for, what? Find a shooting guard and a defensive center and you have the basis for a deal.
