In a recent interview Andrei Kirilenko stated that his back is beginning to feel better, after dealing with spasms through the first two months of the season. "I am feeling pretty good," Kirilenko said. "Again, nothing bothered me and I had a great game [Thursday]. Gradually, I am getting better. I played without a brace [against the Hawks], which is a huge improvement. And I'm feeling, movement-wise, great." Kirilenko's numbers don't jump off the page, but since being infused back into the lineup the Nets have gone on a 6-2 run. While Kirilenko is helping his team win games, he's not offering enough statistically right now to be owned in standard leagues.
