Morris and Noel fire Klutch

When LeBron retires will Klutch go away? I sure fricking hope so.

AD would have done the same if he wasn't a grade A bitch.

Ehh

Who? Obvious reason why these guys dropped Rich Paul

Sadly, Clutch with a K is a thing, but frick it, i could not be anymore happier being a pels fan with all this young talent I can watch grow together and win a championship for Nola.

Mutual my arse. Obviously Paul is trying to save face

Apparently Paul made Morris turn down a 41 million dollar offer from the Clippers

If that doesnt tell guys in the league who's interests Paul has in mind, I dont know what will

I'm assuming 4/41? For him to turn it down in favor of the 2/20 from San Antonio?

Potentially, but it’s not like this is the first time he’s done this same thing. I can’t help but think of Hanlon’s Razor: Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by incompetence.

Another thing to consider, I’ve heard that RP takes either 0% of the players salary or very little, and instead makes a large % of the endorsements that they sign. I tried to look that up, but couldn’t find anything confirming it, so I don’t know how true that is. But let’s assume that it is how his agent contracts are written, it would make sense that he would tell players to risk losing good offers for a bigger payday because he’s not losing anything. It would also make sense that he would steer guys to big markets so that he can get a bigger more endorsements.

Still, would anyone put that past him to try and help LeBron at the detriment of another client? Either way, he sounds like an absolutely horrible agent

I understand that and I agree that it is unlikely, which is why I’ve tried to fact check it. I wouldn’t be surprised if he had some agreement that was just less than normal salary % for a higher than normal endorsement %, that seems possible.

Not trying to start or spread rumors, just spitballing in the offseason

Rumor says it was 2/41 (on Jalen and Jacoby). If this is true, it doesn't look good for Klutch.

Did Morris make a bad decision on his own or did he make one using bad advice from Rich Paul?

After clusterfricks like KCP having his 4/$80m deal pulled due to Paul’s hardball bullshite, I can see both Morris insisting on more money and Paul telling him the market would give that to him.
