    He exemplifies that “Luck Is What Happens When Preparation Meets Opportunity"

  • @MH-et4bo
    @MH-et4bo Před 6 lety +72

    When he said “there used to be a saying someone who looks like you can’t represent you” that struck a nerve it matters that the best player in the game has a young black agent. If he can handle LeBrons affairs he can handle anyone else in the league.

      The Reddit guy was decent as well. At least in terms of being surprising.

      Gave me chills. Nothing like giving hungry young men an opinion.

      Whoa There I agree. I personally don't give two shits about Reddit but I liked that interview a lot.

      @kmmmmmk537 Před 6 lety +3

      Low key the random behind the scenes guys make for better interviews than most of the celebrities. The world can have only so many entertainers, and the only reason they're so rich is that there are so few of them. The brand is strong and uplifting.

    I'm not a sports fan so I don't know who this gentleman's story. Listening to him, his approach to sports management is like a father raising his son. His method is honesty ... what a concept! I'll have to start following his story. Other management companies should sit up and listen to Mr. Paul. Impressive!

    Hearing all of Lebrons teams story makes Phil Jacksons comments sound eve crazier. These are hustlers who were making it either way. Lebron just helped them to a whole new level

    • @kingnatesr.5078
      @kingnatesr.5078 Před 5 lety +4

      He helped himself, LeBron just gave him a larger platform!
      He's made certain sacrifices for LeBron, that doesn't show up on paper.
      So they've actually helped eachother, to be fair.

      D1nonly1 I know but he is supposed to seem confident and like he's sure of what he's doing. Imagine you're in a meeting with millions on the line and your agent is stuttering and can't seem to find his words. It's probably just being on TV or not used to this style of talking. Idk
