The Los Angeles Lakers are both playing well this season and yet are not a true threat to win the title, given the presence of the Oklahoma City Thunder and Denver Nuggets. To find a way to build another championship team, NBA agent Rich Paul -- best known for his connection to LeBron James, whom he represents through Klutch Sports -- has a simple message: get back to a championship culture.
Paul debuted a new podcast show with Max Kellerman called "Game Over" which looks at teams across sports to provide incisive commentary. On their first episode, Paul unpacked the problem the Lakers are dealing with on an institutional level.
