    Am I the only one who find it unethical? A big powerful agent in control of a franchise? In an official post that is.

    ^ Bob Myers, current Warriors GM and exec of the year, was previously a top agent under...Arn Tellem

    This is probably a driving factor

    I think its a great decision by SVG and the Pistons ownership

    yes but tellem has players under him right NOW and I think he has new ones in this draft as well. Shouldn't he firstly retire as agent and pass all his clients and the new ones and then take the position?

    I am pretty sure that Tellem will need to resign his official role with the agency before formally taking on the Pistons job. Bob Myers and others who have transitioned from agent to front office have done the same in the past. Otherwise, it is hard to see how the NBA would approve of this hire.
