“One of Reaves' agents, Reggie Berry of AMR Agency, approached Paul on the sideline near half court at halftime of the Lakers-Hawks game Tuesday. The two spoke for more than five minutes and the topic of conversation was Paul's public trade scenario regarding Reaves, sources told ESPN.”

  1. I think most people recognize that what Rich Paul did is a little off, but it’s also time to move on from this.

  2. Bruh..WHO CARES. Ignore Rich if you don’t care for his podcast. If RP was talking about Reaves deserves a 50m contract, then it would be crickets. What is this elitist mentality. Idc for Rich, Lakers have FAR bigger problems that require our attention.

  3. Forget the Lakers side for a moment: I don’t see why the Grizzlies do it. If they’re trading JJJ then its for a rebuild and getting rid of GG and taking AR goes against that.

    On the Lakers side AR and Luka play incredibly well together, JJJ is a soft as charmin and foul prone big who doesn’t do what Luka likes on offence. JJJ also has a behemoth contract extension thats about to kick in.

  4. Rob Pelinka is his own man, he’s not gonna make trades based on what a player’s agent said in a podcast

  5. As he should. People can say “who cares?” but obviously Austin did enough to have his agent confront Paul.

  6. Half y’all were ready to trade Reaves this off-season and plenty if y’all wanted to trade Reaves and all our assets for Giannis. Spoiler, we ain’t winning the chip with Giannis and Luka if we have a worse version of this roster.

    But still, the trade Rich proposed was so bad, fuck him too.

  7. Knowing when to stfu or sit one out is key in life. I imagine Rich Paul will learn from it.

    Disappointed with Bron playing the grown man card. This is easily a moment where you tell someone to stand down.

  8. Good. LeBron should do the same. JJ should do the same. Pelinka should do the same. 

    His podcast is wildly inappropriate. No way an agent should have his platform and use to create drama around the franchise he’s done the most business with. The Lakers have more than played their part in the Klutch connection. Having him out there airing laundry and talking shit while his best client and best friend is collecting 50 million from the franchise is unprofessional. 

  9. Austin has become the new hot trending topic this year and it’s hilarious to think about when he’s the literally the most boring personality online or offline…bro just hoops and golfs.

  10. Just because some dude in a podcast said something that doesn’t mean is true.
    Pelinka knows the value of Reaves and what he brings to the team so I guess he would not be that stupid to trade him.
    Stop believing everyone that eats 💩
