There should be an investigation of AK-47 signing with the Nets for 3 million.

He wanted a 3 year deal at 8 million/year then signs for 3 million for the billionaire Russian owner who has admitted bribery was a big part of his previous business dealings.

I honestly don't think under the table thing.

I think it's a pride thing. A "for the country" move. He wants to help a Russian owner win in the USA. Probably scoring huge points for this move in his own country. Then again maybe he was ordered to do this by the Russian Gov to try and stake Russia's name in us sports history with a russian combo winning a title

The problem is, two different reports stated that he wanted a payday for his last years. Why did he change so drastically in two weeks?? He could have come right out and said he wanted to play for the Nets off the bat.

but all the money was drying up for most places i didnt hear any teams really interested in him like pekovich(spelling?) everyone was saying he would get offered a lot during free agency but know one has offered anything to him. So he probably just said f it let me go with my peeps and take a discount i think he can opt out next year so if he plays well he can get a long term good deal next year.
