With there being three consistent rumors so far this off season regarding additions (Deron, Beasley, Odom), I got to wonder why those 3 and what they have in common. Come to find out they all share the same agent. Do you think that is a coincidence or is it by design like with CAA and how they put the Miami 3 and Miller/Haslem together as a unit with their agency?
Is it possible we could be targeting Deron, Beasley, Lamar? Or that their agent could be looking to move all three to the same spot now that the Lakers are down as all would get much more respect and possibly endorsements for helping turn the team around and the location?

Re: Jeff Schwartz
We need Odom according to many, we apparently tried to acquire Beasley back in December along with Paul, Deron wants to be on a team that is a title contender or could build quickly and the Lakers are sort of known for returning to championship form rather quickly.
That's why those three names are linked to the Lakers. Sheer coincidence.

Does he also happen to be Andre Iguodala's agent?

No, he's represented by Rob Pelinka.
