**OFFICIAL 2019 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD**

[Moheezy]

I mean dude didn't put himself on the cover or write that tagline I'm not going to not him for taking that opportunity who would say no to that?

But that's how you work it, I've done PR for my business and it doesn't "just happen" you develop the right relationships with people who can out you and your story out there.
How often is it that Rich Paul is often the center if the story, like he's a bigger name than the player. The answer is very often, and that's by design.

 

[Moheezy]

Kinda wild how easy it is to spread an untruth through official media channels nowadays like it's nothing.

I mean, it's Fox. It's more entertainment and gossip than actual news.

Nah, i don't buy the "brotha" argument with Rich Paul. He has an ego and he wants the attention.

Print this out and have someone read it back to you out loud so you can hear how you sound.

**** rich paul and klutch sports. esp lebum and AD

 

[shotsrangout]

Odd request, but I need to think of some basketball terms that are easily worked into puns.

I'm stuck on "pick and roll" and "zone" but I'm sure there are more

length and girth

How do you know he has an ego? Have you asked him or are you just assuming that? An editorial doesn't mean anything. They aren't mutually exclusive.

Rich Paul doesn't control any media man

Dave don’t know what he wants to be. This is what happens when you have east coast Laker fans. I blame @tyisla

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Rich Paul is supposed to be working for every client's self interest. Not just Lebron's. I'm sure there's lots of people that are criticizing him for that and not the color of his skin.

If he was a white dude name Hunter Rosenberg the media wouldn't care who he was friends with or how he got in the game. He would just be the "young hot shot agent". They do it all the time. Get hookups from their friends/family. Put in high positions based on who they know. White people have done it throughout the history of sports and still do.

Huh? I know what I'm saying.

 

[Moheezy]

The attention he's seeking, the way we hear about him dealing with clients, his aggressive nature with negotiations, and the fact that he's typically a bigger story than the player he's working for.

And you're right about not being mutually exclusive, my thoughts on Rich was the same way before the article.

That's good and all, I'm all for people getting their bread.

I just don't like him being immune to criticism because people decide to use the race card. Not for this situation. He is very aggressive, he plays with fire, and he loves the attention. Hate will come his way no matter what race he is.

I never mentioned control though. Of course he doesn't. That's not necessarily how you get covered in a magazine. I'm just saying, being covered in a magazine doesn't just happen. It's a PR move, i wouldn't be surprised if he did have a PR guy working for him. It's by design.

So are your thoughts on Scott Boras and Drew Rosenhaus similar or as deep rooted?

[MajinZuub]

That's one sentence out of multiple posts critiquing him. An excuse other people use to protect a person shouldn't be a reason to hate that person. He never went "I’m black you can’t say **** about me”
