They hate Rich Paul so much for being good at his job. Klutch is just getting started.

Article should be retitled:

“Half-rate agents angry at Klutch’s marketing smarts.”

These lazy as agents want to sit on their azz and get their fat checks.

Joke. Video is not even close to what NBA teams do in normal workouts. Provides nothing. Is there more than the posted video above? Some no effort game doesn't count either.
Organization can be defined as an organized body of people with a particular purpose. Not random.

As someone whos evaluated players before, that did nothing for me at all. I had questions about his ball handling and shooting off the catch and dribble. Because he did everything so slowly, I have no idea about how his catching mechanics have changed, or how he transers energy up into his shot after dribbling. The reason these top picks bust so often now is because this is how they can workout and still get picked high.

I guess he's trying to say he's always been locked in a gym or something so he has good work ethic? :-? :lol:

its all about marketing and branding

see how Mike Mccarthy's agent marketed him (i.e he's into analytics, he studied every game from last year, they even made a video of him discussing tape with some other coaches). Dallas bought it and signed him. Turned out to be all fluff as Mccarthy admitted he lied to Jerry when he said he watched all of 2019 games (but hey it worked he got the job)

see Lavar ball getting Lonzo drafted at 2

Rich Paul understands the culture and trends for these guys coming into the league. Rather than hate, these agents should learn something from what he's doing.
