I think that's what the moniker "shoe salesman" is trying to convey in a comedic way.
There are reasons why Nico's experience does apply to working in the NBA. I am not, in my job, responsible for judging and building relationships with NBA talent or building relationships with adjents or team execs.
And "shoe salesman" could be comedic, or it could be shorthand for "not qualified." Is Nico, in fact, not qualified?
