Well one one phone call I heard him say "Aaron is a f****** moron and a pathetic excuse of an agent." Excuse my language. Also called him a leech...
Ramona is the big dog of Lakers reporters. She doesn't directly control the folks at the LA times, but the beat writers there follow her lead, as...
You're right. My mistake. It is DeMartini coming in for New Balance discussions, but he's not the CEO anymore. My guess is its to probably make...
Pelinka is neither a bad nor a good GM. He is an amateur and it shows at times. His intentions are generally good, but he has strained...
Rich Paul has been in touch with Griffin about trading Davis here. He's open to the idea, but it depends on if ownership signs off, which is a...
Not a strong existing relationship but a budding one. Jeanie has asked AEG to use this to pitch Kawhi this summer, and they are working on it....
CEO of New Balance
I cannot see the image, but I am assuming you mean Kurt and Linda. Linda has always been powerful, to be honest. The difference is that now she's...
Mr. DeMartini's coming in for a meeting next week. I'll be there for other reasons, but I'll see if I can learn anything interesting.
That media and the media that I'm referring to are different. Ballmer can buy the Athletic and these other outlets if he wants. But he will never...
It is hard to say. Joey and Jesse wanted Myers confirmed before all this, so that he could handle the coaching hire. My personal guess is that...
What happened was when Magic was forced out, it created a lot of negative press. Jeanie called Ramona into her office and told her to stop...
Joey and Jesse forced Jeanie to reluctantly call Lacob weeks ago, but he won't discuss anything until the playoffs are done.
Jeanie is just interested in big names. It creates positive buzz, and nobody is more beloved than Kobe. Kobe knows how badly legacies have been...
Jeanie is very high on Kobe, but he's smart enough to not get involved. There is zero interest on his end. Joey and Jesse have been pushing hard...
Difficult to say, it's a very dynamic situation. Here's my take: Jeanie is a media person and is all about having a big name - hence why he's...
They don't really care about the basketball side. They are more tied to Jeanie and the business/media side. As long as that revenue doesn't stop...
You are very much correct about that. In my experience, the best guys are the ones who know how to deal with these sorts of individuals, but...
Best compliment I have gotten all day! (Yes people I work with can be mean) A lot of what I'm saying isn't fact. It's just AEG's sense of what's...
It is not so cut and dry that Pelinka will always go out of his way to hurt Mintz, or vice versa. Both are still businessmen who have a job and...
