Ritchie Paul: The deal is not James decision to come to Westbrook, he does not control the team

Recently, James' agent Ritchie Paul talked about the Lakers' trade that year that year.

First of all, Paul responded to the outside world's dealings that James has always been in charge of the team.

"'That's fake,' Paul responded to the topic of outsiders about James' control of his team, 'I can say that because I'm an eyewitness. If you think about this statement and this narrative, you'll find that people don't think about its impact on the field at all. It will destroy friendships, and the players on the team will think, 'Hey, I'm traded because you don't want me to stay here.'"

"And I know that's not the truth. Sometimes when someone comes to ask you, 'How do you think of this person?' You might just say, 'Well, that's OK.' or you won't even comment. And then they ask repeatedly, Come back, come over and over again, and you say, 'Do you know? If you want to do this, do it. 'This doesn't mean you have made a decision. It's just that you are responding, 'Well, if you think this is the best choice, then do it. 'I'm not the boss, I don't own this team, and I'm not in the management. '

"It's obvious that he (James) doesn't control the team because he doesn't know something that happened. So how can you say he controls the team? For example, Westbrook's deal, he is not the leader of that deal at all, contrary to what the outside world says. He didn't make that deal, and I can say with certainty that this is the fact." '
