Andrei Kirilenko was asked about his summer of discontent prior to the Jazz’s 113-109 loss at New York on Monday and shed some light on just where things stand.
“It was tough year last year, and it’s been a lot of disappointments for me,” the forward from Russia said. “And, you know, in your mind you start just talk to yourself a little bit. It’s like, ‘Man, it’s not everything.’ You need to think about basketball, but, you know, in a positive way. Right now, I’m changed completely. I feel way different.”
“It’s way different,” Kirilenko added. “It’s way different. I feel much better.”
