Okay man. We all have google and there are MANY different stories about Klutch. No offense, but with Bron you can't be objective so you'll believe the story that best fits the narrative you wanna believe

Fake news?

So Rich Paul didn't work for Lebron's agent for like 8 years and left the agency to start Klutch Sports agency in 2012?

You said he was poor - where did he get the money to start an agency? I showed you how he got it and now you're claiming I'm not objective.

Where did he get the money from? And how can you confirm this sir?

Edit: you think running errands for an agent pays that well lol

As someone who has been a production assistant, depending on the location, its usually between $150-200 a day and that's usually for a 12 hour day.

Why shouldn't LeBron try to influence. You think MJ wouldn't if he played in this FA era? Do want you got to to get the stars a team needs in today's game. There's advantages to being the best player in the game and they aren't all on the court.

I don't think MJ would. He has a bigger ego and killer mentality than Lebron does. MJ didn't want to share the spotlight with other stars in a super team, he was the super team. Hell, the guy came out of retirement to play with Rip Hamilton, Christian Laettner and Ty Lue because he seriously believed he could elevate that team of scrubs by himself.


He wanted to win above all else. His legacy meant a lot to him. His brand was everything. In his era it was viewed as possible to win with a single star (he actually needed Pippen). MJ would never rise to all-time great level without championships and his brand would suffer. There is no way he'd stubbornly fight by himself and get knocked out in round 1 or 2 every year. He'd have to win or he'd just be Westbrook (great stats, doesn't win).

He was running errands?

He was representing Tristian Thompson and Eric Bledsoe before he started representing Lebron and started Klutch Sports.

This is the problem...like Phil Jackson - you think Rich Paul is a moron and an idiot and Lebron had to give him everything he has. Truth is - Lebron gave him an opportunity but he took advantage of it and took it to another level on his own.

He started his company with his own earned money by representing multiple clients for CAA.

I never said he was a moron, wtf?

Him and Lebron are friends, and extremely close. Lebron s**ts out money. Starting Klutch Sports is expensive as f**k. Paul's success is partly due to Bron. Bron has a lot of influence. Hard to think Paul made that much money in that short of time to start Klutch. Lebron has the resources and wants to be as influential as possible. The end

9 point lead at the end of the 3rd. Is it enough to hold off the warriors? We all know the warriors are gonna go on a run. Can the sixers keep scoring to fend them off?
