Fegan was supposed to deliver Dwight to Dallas last summer. He owed Cuban for not coming through. Dallas has all kinds of Fegan clients coming and going. Fegan and Cuban are good friends. DJ's family thinks Fegan pushed DJ into committing to the Mavs. Word is that Fegan told the Clips that if they wanted to keep DJ, they had to trade CP3. This is why the Clips didn't bother to try very hard to keep him. Supposedly DJ did not know about that conversation. DJ left a much larger "home team" max offer on the table from the Clips. DJ is not a bright bulb and easily manipulated.
It all reminds me of the McDyess (not the brightest bulb either) situation with Denver, Tony Dutt, and John Lucas.
Bottom line, an agent works for the player, not the team. If a player takes a significantly lower contract than the one offered him by his home team, there better be very good personal reasons for doing so. If that player is having second thoughts, you blew it as an agent. The agent is supposed to understand what the player wants and get it for him.
