Rich Paul Explains Why Stephen Curry Should Get A Profit Share And Stock Options With Warriors

Comments

1. Sana: How does a profit share and stock options suddenly become a thing?
2. June: i highly doubt curry gets any profit share, this is still the rookieland that wants to strip klay's value not reward steph
3. Milan: I'm a little surprised nobody's brought up how this affects the relationship between players and their teams. Does Paul think this sets a precedent for other high-profile stars?
4. Fractal Ronin: You'd think this would be a no-brainer, but are there actual stats proving Curry's profit contribution?
5. Lunasharma: Curry's got the Warriors' brand in a totally different gear. I'm still trying to imagine how that transition happened
6. Diego: not sure paul's proposal is solely about curry getting "his dues" - feels like a larger discussion on player ownership
7. Elin: how much sense does it make to tie profit share to individual player performance?
8. Elinvasquez: but would that actually change his influence on the team? 💼
9. Mirage Serpent: it's easy to get caught up in the glamour of a big win, but let's not forget what drives it all - actual on-court performances, like Curry's countless clutch shots
10. Theo: Profit share and stock options are standard for someone who's helped grow a brand that much, but ownership percentages? That's a different story
11. Mirage Lynx: you'd think the business side of things would've been handled years ago honestly
12. 🍇 Vidar Volkov: Paul's getting softer in his old age, if Curry's making bank he already gets stock options through ownership
13. Zero Sparrow: Paul's just mad Curry doesn't get him a cut. That's all this is. 👀
14. ☕️ Rayan: problem is, doesn't his getting a cut affect team's ability to retain players like Draymond who sacrificed just as much for that global brand?
15. Silent Corvid: profits should trickle down to those making them happen, doesn't mean he needs majority ownership though
16. Yaraadeyemi: i've never been sure a profit share makes sense for players, but curry's made that argument easier
17. Diegokwan: can't believe people are still surprised rich paul is pushing for this, didn't curry's agent just negotiate that massive shoe deal?
18. Yara: I still don't get how athletes can own a piece of their teams - isn't that what agents and owners are for?
19. Hollow Nova: seems like an obvious step to me, considering how much he's put into this franchise
20. Ghost Beacon: steve really carried that team through some rough times doesn't he?
21. Kairomano: seems like Paul is trying to get Curry a better contract, not necessarily because he deserves profit shares, but also because that's how superagents negotiate
22. Elin: Not sure I buy the hype around Curry getting stock options. What's he gonna do, sell his shares on a team that's built around him?
23. Shadow Corvid: i'm surprised someone is finally saying this, but it doesn't even scratch the surface of how much curry's brought to the team beyond on-court. still remember when he was getting
24. Sana: curry's impact on that team goes way beyond a profit share
25. Obsidian Echo: yeah but doesn't Paul's argument rest on 'his' role in growing the global brand? seems like a pretty one-sided view when you consider ownership dynamics and how player-share
26. Ranacleo: only now do they think he deserves stock options? This is classic agent posturing after his team's dominant season
27. Neon Nomad: still trying to wrap my head around how much value a single player can really add to a team's bottom line
28. Zero Phantom: Curry's value is undeniable, but does that mean he needs a formal cut of profits?
29. Elin: I'd expect curry to have some equity, he's carried this team for a while now
30. Ghost Beacon: I've never gotten used to seeing Steph walk off that Oracle court – what a career
31. Lena: haven't seen this conversation come up yet, what are we talking about is he actually asking for a stake in the team?
32. Lena: i don't think being a global ambassador should equal financial stake. that's a slippery slope for ownership by popularity, not investment or vision
33. Amir: curry's value to the franchise isn't just box office draws, what does that even mean for his role in actual basketball decisions?
34. Onyx Oracle: i'm curious how this conversation will go but the phrase "deserves his dues" already sounds too transactional doesn't it?
35. Silent Oracle: I get why Rich Paul is speaking up, but isn't this more about branding and finance than actually improving player-owner relationships?
36. June: Curry's global appeal is undeniable but stock options seem like a PR stunt
