<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Andrei Kirilenko has been granted restricted free agency - by his wife. Masha Lopatova, a former Russian pop star who has been married to the Jazz forward for nearly six years, understands the temptation NBA players are faced with as they travel around the country for seven months a year. And she believes that forbidding something only makes it more tempting. That's why, she revealed in a story in the current issue of ESPN The Magazine, she allows Kirilenko an "allowance" of one night per year with another woman. "What's forbidden is always desirable. And athletes, particularly men, are susceptible to all the things they are offered," Lopatova said before the Jazz's loss to Charlotte on Wednesday. "It's the same way raising children - If I tell my child, 'No pizza, no pizza, no pizza,' what does he want more than anything? Pizza. "So this is the arrangement that Andrei and I have," she said, adding, in the spirit of openness, that she does not have a reciprocal agreement with her husband. "If I know about it, it's not cheating." [ Kirilenko, according to the magazine story written by Salt Lake City freelance writer Chad Nielsen, has no plans to exercise his "allowance." "Of course it was a surprise," Kirilenko said. "I'm not planning to do anything. But she said, 'If you want to do it, you can do it.' " </div> Source Whoa!
Oh God. I'm sure many players would like a wife like that. Even though she gave Andrei a deal, I think she is very pretty and he shouldn't sleep around. But wow am I surprised. For most guys, it is a dream to have your wife offer you that deal.

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting SkiptoMyLue11:</div><div class="quote_post">lol, because AK47's wife is just weird!</div> Russian people are cool, I know.
That's actually very disgusting, from a mature point of view. Marriage is a relationship, a bond between two people. Now, from a guy's point of view, get me a wife like that.
She's going to realize how incredibly faulty her logic was when he runs off with another woman. But seriously, I gotta give props to Kirilenko for fighting the temptation to cheat even when his wife let him. Thats an honourable man.
Whether wifes come out and say it or not, u can't tell me that there aren't a ton of wives in the league that are like this. When you marry a pro-athlete, cheating comes w/ the territory, it's like marrying tony soprano, he's gonna cheat on u.

How many people don't cheat because there afraid of the consequences? Kirilenko literally has nothing to stop him from cheating but his own sense of morality. It just reflects his character IMO.
Maybe this is reverse physcology or something? She's saying to do it, so now he doesn't want to do it anymore because it's not as......how shall I say it "fun?"
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting K8B:</div><div class="quote_post">That's actually very disgusting, from a mature point of view.</div> Yeah man I gotta agree.

guys don't cheat because they CAN'T they cheat because they like to taste as many different flavors as possible. Only women cheat because the fact that they're doing something forbidden is exciting.
