"How about Jeff Schwartz? He recently started his own company called Excel Sports."
Jeff Schwartz?
Maybe he's not famous now.
But Qin Yue knows that in fifteen years, he'll become the most powerful agent in the entire NBA.
As an agent exceptionally skilled at eloquence and helping players market their image, Schwartz's future classic feats include marketing Anthony Bennett as a top draft pick and making all NBA management believe James Wiseman is undoubtedly the No. 2 pick in the 2020 draft...
Indeed, those NBA general managers who were once hoodwinked by Schwartz wish they could flay him afterwards.
But for the players...
Personas like Schwartz are definitely rare mentors and friends.
Moreover, although many hate Schwartz's manipulative words, many teams still have to be grateful to him.
For example, in the future, after an irreconcilable conflict arose between the Lakers and Westbrook, Schwartz orchestrated Westbrook's escape from Los Angeles.
