Noel's case will get dismissed on summary judgment if its an uncontroverted fact,that Noel met Paul at a party and Paul suggested he declined the Mavs deal before contractually becoming his agent. Sounds like Karma playing a part, bc I'm more than sure Noel had an agent, via contract, at the time he talked to Paul. Its the old adage, grass aint always greener on the other side.

Also, despite losing out on the deal allegedly on the advice of Paul, he still retained his services up until 6 months ago.

An agent is like a stockbroker or investment banker or lawyer. You, the client, pay them for their perceived, advanced knowledge of a discipline or field that you have not studied yourself/procured necessary license. However, regardless of the advice, good or bad, the client is the one that ultimately decides how to proceed based on the info provided by the agent or whomever, which is standard language in a contract.

Im sure Klutch's contract has a disclaimer or clause stating all of the above, in considerable detail.

If such is the case and from what has been admitted to by Noel, in his own pleadings, dude ain't getting shite. Talk about opening Pandora's box.

Unless he can clearly PROVE malpractice on Paul's part, which is far more difficult than most people realize, in a court of law, then he just lost more money suing to get legally told he was stupid not to take the bag.

I guess he got the feels again, dejavu or embarrassed all over again bc his name was brought up in relation to Dennis Schroeder's debacle. Get used to it Nerlens everytime this scenario happens regardless of sport.

Dennis like, "I hope justice is served, so I can follow the blueprint to getting what's mine." And it will be, recognize when u are getting a fair deal and stop being greedy. This is just the other side of betting on one's self. He lost.

Noel was probably told by his lawyer that he would lose this suit. It's still probably worth it to him as a FU to Klutch.

The lawsuit states that Rich Paul withheld offers, so Noel wouldn't even have the option to accept if he didn't know they existed. That's the sticking point.
