That's NOT what I said. I never said that DET said "You have to take Grimes, if we are going to do this deal" nor that the Mavs had any issue with taking him.
I think he's an unknown, not the given that many think he is.
My guess is that his role (such as it is) will evolve, based on how he plays. Like Lively last year, or DJJ, or Exum, or Holmes, or Wood the prior year, or others who came with checkered pasts.
I hope Grimes is much better in Dallas, but I think it's more realistic to think the jury is still out. I'm cautioning he may be quite meh, because that's who he was.
