Latest From Rich Motion: Paul Pierce Made Nearly $200 Million, So How Is He 'Drowning' Financially?

The newest Rich Motion long-form is live: "Paul Pierce Made Nearly $200 MILLION, Now His Lawyer Says He's 'DROWNING' Financially."

The headline number is hard to square. Pierce reportedly pulled in close to $200 million over his NBA career, yet a filing in his support case with ex Princess Santiago claims his monthly income has fallen to zero since his last Fox Sports check landed in August, per TMZ. The same paperwork reportedly lists about $48,000 a month in expenses, plus $28,000 in child support and $20,000 in spousal support.

In the video, Rich Motion walks through what the filing actually says, clears up that the "drowning financially" line came from his attorney and not from Pierce himself, and gets into the Joe Budden Podcast's reaction to the $7,000-a-month restaurant budget. None of the claims in the filing have been ruled on by a judge.

Is this a real money crunch or a strategy move in a support fight? Watch the full video above and tell us in the comments.
