Rich Paul's clients (Lebron, AD, etc) have already received 90% of their salaries this season

[Rigby.]

the NBA still getting their money.

read up

For a player like LeBron James, who has the hyper-accelerated structure on his contract, that would mean he’d have to write a check for $6.12 million back to the league to cover his share. As of April 1, he’ll have already been paid $34.32 million of his $37.44 million salary for this season: half up front, plus ten of his 12 payments of the remaining $18.72 million. The Lakers would withhold his two remaining checks in full, totaling $3.12 million, but they would have no further checks from which they could withhold for the 2019-20 season and would still be $6.12 million short of the $9.24 million he stands to lose in this situation.

Analysis: Force Majeure would have a significant impact on certain players’ cash flows

Uncle Silver gotta get his

I definitely saw the bigger picture, that’s why I quietly just accepted what was going on. Besides, Laker fans want to win above all else so this purist shyt from us regarding Bron’s many stops really is just nitpicking shyt and friendly ribbing. Some really can’t get on board til they see the full results.

But you can’t combine a franchise like the Lakers and a megastar like Bron and his satellites and not expect business to pick up in a major way. Bron shoulda been a Laker from his first game if we being real.

If you really want to see how far lebron reach go

Its being planted right now


I never seen him rep a franchise like this

He wears laker gear every damn place he goes

That summer league game where he was wearing those laker shorts had me like




Plus he seems to really be behind the FO and ownership

He could have forced ty lue
Jr Smith

But he good with Vogel and deon waiters

Given Bron’s stature the Lakers or Celtics are really the teams with prestige to match Bron’s star status. With Miami and Cleveland it was more like he had to be the franchise whereas with the Lakers he has the support of legends and an organization that places the same expectations he places on himself.

I think I said it somewhere else, but the closest he ever came to this was with Riles in Miami. Now he went to the plug that made Pat the boss he is. It’s gotta be like basketball Shangra-La to him.

Troy daniels said he still in the team group chat even the coaches are in it

It’s prolly fair that Logo work for the clipshyts. If he were around and if Kobe were still alive the Lakers would be in a veritable golden age and that’s saying a lot.

Otto Porter still stealing money lmao. This nikka hit the gotdamn lotto more than any marginal player I can think of...

this dudes story is amazing.

I hope to be a agent 1 day as a side gig.

Bruh I've actually thought about pursuing this, but I'm not sure I want to dedicate to the schooling. I need to randomly run up on the next LeBron or Saquon or some shyt, but it's something I think I would truly enjoy if I can get my brain to commit to going to school for it...

You don’t even have to go to school for it bruh. You just need a bachelors in any subject, go to NY & take & pass the agent test & pay your yearly fees. I think they give you material to study, and you can find resources online to help you out.

start off small with D2 or HBCU players, build relationships & work your way up. That’s my plan at least

That’s the qualifications for all the leagues except for the NFL which requires agents to have bachelors and masters degrees

Bachelor's in anything. So I recently got a generic Business Associates degree but I can't use it in anything, I felt accomplished and like I wasted my time at the same time. I'll try looking some shyt up but I don't know if this degree even extends to a bachelor's...

Rich got in with no degree period, I guess if I knew some star athlete I could make it happen with an associates. I don't really want to have to start an entirely new degree to get a BA I may not even use!

They’re still eating off Klutch. Klutch is a subsidiary of CAA and a white agent does all the paperwork.

How hard is it to get Lebron and Anthony Davis literally anything they want in a contract? As everyone now knows, Kyrie and other superstar players have the same clauses. Should we be giving David Falk a pat on the back?

F Lebron and Rich Paul

Most of the guys with those pay structures are Rich clients. But yeah nikkas in here acting like Rich did some shyt other agents can’t do or didn’t know about I was surprised to see rich got those kindve deals for his clients who just got to the league though that’s good work

Klutch is NOT a subsidiary of CAA
Rich Paul worked for CAA to learn the business but then left to start Klutch

My mistake, you are right he worked at CAA. Klutch is a subsidiary of UTA.

A side gig?

 

[staticshock]

A side gig?

Only a few agents can live good with that being their only source of income because they have high profile players & have been an agent for a while..Scott boras, Drew Rosenhause, BJ Armstrong, Rich Paul etc,

most agents represent small time players & their contracts aren’t as lucrative. Ideally I’d like to keep teaching, & do the agent thing on the side as a additional source of income doing deals for small college players

but you aren't just working on "Contracts" you are also working to get deals outside of the sport, top class business deals. That's a full time commitment. I could see if it only entailed one task, but it's a multitude of tasks. Some remedial, and some enjoyable. At that point where you get big you may higher a bunch of other agents to deal with the remedial stuff, but that comes with progress.

Some of these dudes only see the big $$$ and don’t see the other stuff that goes with it.
