Here is the entire article without the paywall.
Honestly after reading this article, its a disgusting puff piece that offers little new info. If anything, I am left with more questions now than previously. If Nico is such a good relationship guy, the same guy that signed Luka to the Jordan brand, how was he unwilling/unable to get Luka to lock in? Sure you can lead a horse to water and all of that, but even still.
The one glaring piece of new info was the confirmation of how bad Nico is at negotiating.
"Those who know Harrison best insist that once he trusts someone, he turns transparent as glass. One person from a rival front office that has talked trades with Harrison described him as “almost too honest.” His goal, the person said, is to build a relationship with the other team, acting as forthright as possible."
Insane that the dude who is apart of some secret Nike rep group, who moves in the shadows, that is SO secretive that not even his own mother knew of supposed deals that he makes, is the same dude that is so forthright in trade negotiations that he loses all leverage.
