Mavs agree, I had some decent offers for AV but I cant keep dragging my feet on him.
I get comparable PF in a couple years back for him I figure plus should head straight to the bottom now pretty much as well as get rid of that godawful Mihm deal. Should have a ton of room to bid on FA's next offseason. Can always use the RC's too.
Thx and GL to Detroit

The rich get richer...
I think we need to put a limit on the number of RC's you can trade or earn from articles...because Detroit gets so many from Jeremy's articles, most of which are rather pointless, that they can deal them for picks/good young players.

Why shouldn't he be aloud to reap his rewards? Nova you had the same opportunity to write articles, make sigs, post, contribute, etc. You didn't, He did. Also I don't see this as the rich getting richer. Maybe in a sense that Varjeo is in his contract year and will be getting richer. Also Hermann is a nice little bench player that can do some damage off the bench. In all honesty I like this for the Mavs. This might even make the Mavs slightly worse this season in which they have their pick but Lee might be > Varjeo long term.

It's not bad for the Mavs, it's just unfortunate that Jeremy's annoying, pointless articles are helping the Pistons become even better.

AV is solid but not so big on him. I would've tried to get a future 1st or 2 instead of upgrades but I can why the Mavs do it.
On the other hand the Pistons have a bunch of fa's now so they're playing with fire.
Darko, Lebron, AV, Ford and they already have Artest and Prince making max bucks. So they will be trying to package a couple of those guys for some premiere talent but if no one bites they are fuckd

you could have wrote an article by now i mean, or he could have hired an assistant to write 20 meaningless ones instead? i don't really think disrespect is meant to aaron here, it's just a request for the rules to be changed and i agree with it. we've never had an issue with articles before but clearly jeremy writes with no insight or comprehension of what is fact and what is not and does minimal research at best. and for whatever reason, that has allowed detroit to become stronger as a franchise. i think it's a legitimate beef, and i don't think nova was saying it to be bitter. sure, we all could have written as many ridiculous articles as we wanted by now but at the same time it doesn't mean it's a good thing. bottom line: the artcles SUCK. if i were the commissioner they wouldn't get half an RC, they would get deleted.

also i could care less how strong detroit gets in general, i think many of the top gm's here soon learn that you can only really have so much talent before you can no longer technically improve. and even when you think you're perfect, you find flaws the next day. it's not about detroit.

All I wanna know is where were all these articles when Jeremy was my asst? I'm surely not a writer and have never made any pretense to be so it woulda been nice, yep.

Most of the time I was your assistant, was during the school year, when I didn't have as much time to write articles. Thats the only reason why I've been able to write so many for Aaron, its summertime, thank god for summer.

I imagined this deal would be much worse since I heard about this deal voer PM before I checked the trade thread. Not bad at all.
As for Jeremys pointless articles there is a new rule already where you can only earn 5 RCs a year.
