Last week, Caron Butler, Ben Gordon, Anthony Tolliver, and Derrick Williams filed a Class Action Complaint against the NBA and its member teams in the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota. At roughly the same time, another class of NBA players filed a similar lawsuit in the Northern District of California. The California lawsuit has since been dismissed […]
Aaron Goodwin of Goodwin Sports Management has represented some of the best players in basketball. At one point in time, he represented Rodney Stuckey, LeBron James, Al Horford, and Dwight Howard. They all currently have different agents representing them. Now add Jamal Crawford to that list. Jamal Crawford has terminated his relationship with Goodwin Sports Management in an offseason […]
At 9:45 p.m. EST, the Arizona Wildcats will take one the #1 seeded Duke Blue Devils (who I happen to have winning the entire NCAA Tournament). The Wildcats are no push over, though. In fact, the team has one of the best players in the nation with Sophomore Derrick Williams. The kid can flat out […]
I thought that Texas was going to lose first round to Oakland, but only because I believed that Oakland was extremely underrated. Oakland ended up putting up a good fight, but lost 85-81 to the Longhorns. Fast forward to the round of 32, and Texas went down in a heart breaker to the Arizona Wildcats. Now with […]
It is well known that I am a Florida Gators fan, but even I could not believe when it was announced that the Gators received the #2 seed in the Southeast bracket. The Gators have an experienced starting line-up with some very talented young players coming off of the bench. Even though the team lost […]
On Sunday, Bob Finnan of The News-Herald wrote, There has been a flurry of agents who have been dropped by major clients in the last few weeks. If players don’t get the kind of contract they think they deserve, they fire their agent. That’s the new trend in the NBA. Players are changing agents like […]
I am not sure how this originally got past my radar, but over the weekend, I read for the first time that Aaron Goodwin plans to file a formal complaint (if he has not already), with the NBA Players Association, against Arn Tellem. The complaint will be based on Al Horford’s switch from Goodwin to […]
I represent athletes, but first and foremost, I consider myself an Educator. They really run hand-in-hand, though. I make sure to provide all of my clients up-to-date, relevant information that will help them succeed in life. I do the same for athletes who are not yet my clients, but whom I may be advising before […]
With a 3-0 lead over the Charlotte Bobcats in the first round of the NBA Playoffs, one would think that the only thing on Dwight Howard‘s mind right now is finishing up the series with a sweep and moving on to the next opponent. Instead, it seems like he has some other big things on […]
Another contributor takes a stab at the Nate Robinson issue. This time, the focus is on Nate Robinson, more than his agent’s actions. After spending the previous fourteen games exiled to the bench by Coach Mike D’Antoni, having his agent publicly request a trade, and being fined $25,000 by the NBA for that request, Nate […]
