    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Watching Matt Harpring and Andrei Kirilenko battle like they did during an otherwise innocuous training-camp scrimmage earlier this week, one is prompted to suspect more may be at stake than learning how to play together.
    For good reason, too.
    How to work small forward Harpring into a lineup already likely to feature All-Star Kirilenko at that very same 3 spot has been a task high on the Jazz's to-do list since training camp opened Tuesday.
    "That's how I think all the trade rumors got started (last season)," Harpring said. "But talking to Kevin (O'Connor, the Jazz's senior vice president for basketball operations), talking to (coach) Jerry (Sloan), talking to the Jazz, it's like, 'We like you guys playing together, also.' "
    Since the notion of the Jazz considering shipping Harpring away evidently is an aged rumor sorely lacking in foundation, then, the question remains:
    How do they make it all work?</div>
