James didn t get enough help? Skip: James and Fu Paul are geniuses who manipulate the media

July 1, July 1st News Today, Skip talked about James' pressure on the Lakers in his show.

He said: "Of course, by custom, he always complains that he doesn't help enough - like his agent Ritchie Paul is doing for him right now after he signed this contract. I mean, Ritchie Paul is simply a PR master. He can make the world believe anything. No one is better at manipulating the media and fans than Ritchie Paul, Maverick Carter and LeBron James, who are geniuses of media manipulation."

" However, think about it: Kyrie Irving has hardly received any praise for the sacrifice he made for the Dallas Mavericks. Kyrie jumped out of the $45 million contract - he could have chosen to execute it and sign a new long-term contract. Now he only gets $36.7 million in the first year, $39.7 million in the second year, and $42.7 million in the third year. Three years of salary is less than what he gets for executing a contract like LeBron. But we all know that Carey just had an ACL surgery and may be absent in the first half of next season. So Carey gave Dallas a 'home discount' so that the Mavericks could sign Chris Paul to replace him for a while. Carey said he believed wholeheartedly that with Luca Doncic, Anthony Davis, Klay Thompson and others, the Dallas Mavericks could win the championship. He proved his belief with his actions - not just saying nothing but doing, but a $8 million cut, showing how eager he is to win now."
