Watching him play, it would be easy to assume that Utah Jazz forward Andrei Kirilenko is on the wrong team. We know he dresses Jazz-correct (too tight), and as a Russian, he possesses the hardy constitution needed to deal with the frigid Utah winters and the rather boring everyday existence of life in Salt Lake. But the bounce -- he's 16th in the L in blocks (AK-47 was ironically averaging 1.87 bpg through late February) and once won a dunk contest in his native Russia -- makes it look like the 6-9, 21-year-old should be on a more high-gloss, high-speed team. The Kings maybe, or the Nets. Regardless, you know he'd be having fun in a wide-open game like the Rookie-Sophomore game during All-Star Weekend. Right?
