it wasnt necessarily the fact he had early bird rights,
The Mavs had the right to sign Devean George, in offseason, even though they are over the salary cap. This means he has Bird Rights, named after a similar scenario that involved Larry Bird during Bird's playing days. (of which you now know of)
Because George's current contract is for only one season, his rights are not transferable to another team (they would be transferable if his current contract were for more than one season). Since he would be losing those rights -- known as Early Bird Rights -- he had to consent to the proposed Mavs-Nets trade.
its not common for a player to be in the situation he was in |
