"IC: It all depends on the next two months. The playoffs are coming here and I have to see if I get more playing time with my team. But I would like to go to the States and take part in some workouts with NBA teams."

My life will not be complete until I see Chiriaev in an NBA game wearing the Stan Humphries face. You know, the "I'm completely overmatched and do not belong here" look.

Rock on!!! What the NBA needs, more than anything else, is a 7'1" Russian point guard to feed Darko in the post. :biggrin:

I love the headline, 'I have no ego' :biggrin:

This part was unneccessary.

You were heavily criticized for some of the things you said to the media last year – like "the NBA needs Ivan Chiriaev." Do you regret saying something like that?

IC: I did say that. But I didn't mean it the way the media wanted to present it. You know, it was because of my knowledge of English. It was not perfect. People have to understand that I didn't say that in a bad way.

He was a lot more funny before he said that.

Anyway, I don't like to be pessimistic, but don't expect him to make a big splash in the NBA. But it's not like any of us have ever seen him play anyway.

Quite the opposite. Many have seen him play and in a Nationally televised all-star game, he gave a big DUD!!!! Hes not that good
