Legendary Basketball Tycoon

In fact, Bruce’s sports agency has many well-known agents in the United States and even in Europe. In terms of basketball, for example, Yao Ming’s agent Bill Duffy, Jeff Schwartz, Jeff Austin, Leon Ross, Mark Bartlestern; in football, Englishman Jonathan Barnett, Iranian Kia Horabchin, Israeli Pini Zahavi, Spaniard Jose Odin.

These are all well-known brokers in the previous life. Of course, they weren't so awesome in the 1990s. They were still working people and didn't go out to start a brokerage company on their own. This gave Bruce a chance to dig them.

It can be said that Bruce's sports economic company is currently on the rise, especially the five generals in basketball. It can be said that all the players with good strength in the draft in recent years have been acquired by these five generals.

Everyone is most familiar with Yao Ming’s agents Bill Duffy and Mark Bartlestern mainly focus on overseas, while Jeff Schwartz, Jeff Austin, and Leon Rose have average strength. Individuals have signed their best players. For example, Jeff Austin signed Jason Kidd, Leon Rose signed Grant Hill, and finally Jeff Schwartz Cima signed Alonzo Mourning.

Considering that Mourning will not be able to play for a few years, the agent that Bruce wants to introduce to Kobe this time is Jeff Schwartz. This basketball field can be compared with the football field "God agent" Jorge Mendes It's comparable.

And Kobe is definitely worthy of the best agent. Although Bruce also thought about letting the good old man Bill Duffy take over Kobe, if the agent who can maximize the value of Kobe is undoubtedly not Jeff Schwarzmo Belonged.

Of course, Jeff Schwartz is not very good at this time. It can be said that he has only taken over basketball for a short time. In 1992, he found a job at the then giant in the sports management industry: the international management group IMG. Soon after working, his clients included tennis superstars such as Pete Sampras and Martina Hingis. And in 1995, Brewster went to IMG to dig him over so that he could enter the basketball field in advance. After entering Bruce’s agency, Jeff Schwartz was able to quickly spot the outstanding players every year. Bruce is still full of admiration for his picking eyes, or he would not be ready to introduce Kobe to him.

"Change agent?!" Kobe was visibly taken aback. He didn't expect the prince to change his agent.

To be honest, he is a bit dissatisfied with the current agent Hahn Tlem. Recently, this old guy ran to his house more frequently than himself. Without him, Hahn Tlem always came to mobilize his parents to propose to the team. I applied for a transfer, but the problem is I don’t want to leave!

For this reason, Kobe himself even had a quarrel with Hahn Trum, telling him not to take care of his own family affairs, but he didn’t think that this guy would fight him hard, and he called him bluntly as his agent. Definitely have to deal with a lot of things for yourself, etc.

It made him annoying, because Kobe took back the right of his agent to operate his own private property, and only reserved the right of his sports agent.

So if you can, Kobe really wants to listen to Bruce's opinion to change the agent who is holding him back.

But it doesn't work!

"The prince can't do it, Hahn has a very good relationship with Dad, and Dad personally asked him to come when he was my agent. It can be said that I would not be able to fire Hahn without my Dad's order!" Kobe shakes Shook his head.

I'm going, so troublesome!

Bruce only knew that Hahn Trum was a member of the Lakers, but he didn't expect him to be familiar with Kobe's father, Joe Bryant, which was a bit difficult.

Since changing the agent is so difficult, why did Kobe's agent become Rob Pelinka in the end? What happened during this period?

Bruce can't figure it out a bit. It stands to reason that Joe Bryant would not let Hahn Trum leave. If Hahn Trum forced to leave or Kobe forced to terminate the contract, then this matter should be a big deal. Yes, but Bruce checked his memory and it didn't happen at all.

Something must have happened in the middle that caused Kobe to replace his agent with Rob Pelinka.

It turns out that Rob Pelinka entered Hahn Trum’s company soon after he graduated. In 2003 Hahn Trum transferred Kobe’s agency to him for a simple reason: they were the University of Michigan. Alumni who graduated from law school.

This is not bullshit. Just because we are a university alumni, we made Kobe this big fat appointment to the little-known Rob Pelinka. If Bruce knew about it, he would first feel that it was not Hahn Trum. The illegitimate child of Kobe, you must know that Kobe's contract in 2003 is quite valuable. It can be said that Kobe alone can easily get more than one million dollars by adding up all the contracts of Kobe alone.

Anyway, what was going on at that time, Bruce was lazy to go into it, his only purpose now is to get Hahn Trum out of Kobe.

Imagine a person who often stabs himself in the back and encourages his subordinates to rebel. What is such a person?

To put it bluntly, the Chinese saying is "traitor running dog traitor", and in a more popular way, it is "two or five boys." It's not a good thing anyway.

No, we must not let Hahn Tlem continue to influence Kobe.

"Kobe, I told you, you have to replace Hahn Tlem, there is nothing to say, if you can't change, then I will help you change!" Bruce said domineeringly to Kobe.

Really, if Kobe can't replace Hahn Trum in front of his father, then he can only do it himself, and it is a necessary means to deal with this kind of "two-fifth boy" complaint.

When Bruce thinks about it, he will directly report to Stern to see what Stern says. Although the league does not define the agent for coercing players to go to other teams, as long as the Bruce makes Hahn Trum an acquaintance of the Lakers, plus he often goes to Kobe’s home to persuade Kobe’s parents to let Kobe switch to the Lakers, Nass Turnn will definitely warn the Lakers.

The reason is very simple. If you really play like this, if you find an agent to persuade your player's family to join other teams, then it won't be messy!

So even if Stern doesn't come forward to stop this behavior, Bruce can clearly indicate that he will wait for the war. Anyway, he has seen the Lakers upset for a long time, and Bruce doesn't mind destroying the owner of a team again.

Old Buss has been in Los Angeles for so long, and there is no shady. Bruce believes that as long as the money is in place, it must be a lot of money. But Bruce didn't think that it would be so cheap for the Buss family, and he must cause the Lakers to cause civil chaos. It's not only strange, I ask you to pay attention to the players, this is the end.

I believe that Stern will definitely give the Lakers a warning before Bruce takes action. After all, he is the last person who wants the league to have internal chaos.

Furthermore, Kobe's interest in the Hans is definitely greater than that of the Lakers. Stern must be very clear about this. It can be said that as long as Bruce does not go crazy and submits a written report on the trade Kobe to Stern, it is true that Kobe wants to leave the Hans. It's a bit difficult, especially as time goes by it gets harder.

Now in China, no one knows that the pillar of the Hans team is Kobe. At this time, who dares to touch Kobe's brain unless it is a brain-strike.
