Typo in the OP? MIA-LAX-DEN, perhaps?
The OP is redeeming AAdvantage miles not Avios
Oops! I'm so used to reading about Avios redemptions in this forum that I missed that important detail.

Yes, with AA's free "gateway" stopover option and 20,000-mile off-peak rate between North America and Europe, the OP was able to get exceptional value for his AA miles.

I've deleted my errant post.
