@Johnny BrainBox imho the Refs didn't blow those calls. They were intentionally called that way, probably directed by that shady league office. Which in turn was headed by Stern-Shady
Vernon Maxwell was a real baller was ready to play anyone real talk even my hometown bulls said houston would of gave them some problems the years mj retired n houston had won finals
Mad Max was is one my favorite non allstars and top 2players to (wear)market the #11jersey well with his cocky style of play on both ends of the court along with being fearless at going to the basket and taking Clutch shots. Jamal Crawford rocked #11 and was my Favorite modern player that was a non allstar, but a flat out Stud with his killer crossovers and a top contested shot maker in NBA history.inwhich makes Crawford ,2x champion Isaiah Thomas,and MadMax the #11 Jersey Staples in my opinion.
That's cuz by the time Jordan retired he had lost 11 out of 16 games to Olajuwon! He even had his 3p buzzer beater snatched out the sky by Olajuwon to lose a game. No greater player in history than Olajuwon
The Bulls had no center to match against hakeem. Longley, wennington and perdue were too slow/unathletic for hakeem. The rocket's Olajuwon and Othis thorpe frontline combo is a headache for the bulls much weaker frontline. Also, the rockets was a solid team. They normally had 4-5 players that averages double figures in points. But again the playoffs/finals is different than reg season bec. stakes are higher and you're gonna play against the same team for 4-7 straight games.
Why dont people do some research before posting bull shit? Vernon's top ten career highs, none came against the bulls. He only scored over fifty one time and it was against the Cavaliers
@@oneyedthing So you saying that Maxwell beat the Bulls all by himself? what I know is MJ always lit Maxwell but the Bulls frontcourt couldn't guard Hakeem that's why they struggled against Houston
@@scarykurapika100yago2 I missed the part where I said Maxwell beat the Bulls. Try not to contaminate what I said Hakeem is the main threat. YES. Ironic when you say it like he did it by himself as well But without Maxwell, Thorpe, Kenny, Horry Hakeem's Houston Rockets is gettting beat by the 90s Bulls. And Maxwell is in charge with MJ defensively. Hence my orginal comment. MJ checks Maxwell under the bed. He was a dog in defense that gave Stockton/GP problems as well. He isn't called Mad max for nothing.
@@oneyedthing Well you stated that MJ checks Maxwell under his bed like MJ was afraid or struggling against Maxwell 😂 i get it Mad Max had game but Mad Max checks Black Jesus under his bed
They must have exaggerated Maxwell’s height during his playing days because he’s not old enough to have started shrinking already. Russell looks at least an taller than Maxwell here, it might be the shoes but it couldn’t have made that much of a difference.
This shit is iconic as hell. Juvenile playing in the background too lmao
I agree👍
Your can't even wear a Maxwell jersey without feeling like starting a fight lol
John Lucas is a delightful fellow. There's not enough room to express his character...
Can you imagine Mad Max and Westbrook on the same team? They would be vicious!!
"Viciously" going at each other 🤣🤣
The big difference is Vernon will actually punch you!🤛🏾
@@MrKelly-ll1lx Without a doubt! Vernon Max was one of my favorite Rockets' player, next to Hakeem and Clyde.
@YJL Who?
@@AnObliviousCelticsFan Vernon did *not* like losing his spot to Clyde.
Vernon Maxwell finished his collegiate career at the University of Florida as the No. 2 scorer in SEC history behind LSU’s Pete Maravich
That three in Game 7......thanks forever, Mad Max
Maxwell doesn’t not look like a guy that played 20 plus years ago!
Veron "Mad Max" is my all time favorite player.
Max looks like he’s still in shape and can suit up and play!
True. Compare him present day to GP or especially MJ. Money gets you notoriety but also out of shape fa sho.
He looks no different than when he played. I wonder what is his secret?
Don't mess with Vernon Maxwell. That's all I know.
Mad Max! A Houston great. He looks like he can still play in the NBA
Houston great straight from Gainesville, FL. Mad Max so underrated.
Would love to see Max and GP go at it in their primes. Two loose cannons with zero lip control.
Payton would be too much to handle. H watch the 93' series rockets v Sonics. Great series

Vernon Maxwell looking like a youngster.
Vernon Maxwell was a real baller was ready to play anyone real talk even my hometown bulls said houston would of gave them some problems the years mj retired n houston had won finals
0 % body fat Maxwell. This dude was a lean, all muscle no fat body player in his day. Best shape ever. Solid
He still looks like he's in great shape. BEAST!!
And he said Jordan was chiseled and on another level than him in interview with Gil, that's 🐐 shit
This is Legendary;
Mad Max meets Westbrook!!!
Mad Max and Russ. If I had to walk down a dark alley to fight, this is 2 guys I want to have my back 😎😎😎
Geeezzzz vernon aging nice!
Westbrook is my favorite player of all time; Mad Max knows what's up cuz they played the same way💪🏽
It's great to see mad-max there with them.
My man. The great Vernon Maxwell. Loved his game.
From one crazy dude to another crazier dude.. Would make one hell of a backcourt and would pit them against anybody
Yoo maxwell was that dude!
Mad Maxx and they were playing Juvenile man I would have been hype at practice
Mad max, Buchholz & Florida alum!!

Did you ever see that video of tekashi getting beat up at the airport by that dude in the Maxwell jersey?
@@mandodelossantos2 no I didn't see it
Mike Jordan was once asked what team he would NOT want to meet in the playoffs.....he said the Houston Rockets.
Cause of Hakeem not delusional Maxwell who got cut for Sam Cassell.
@@meg-k-waldren True....but i dont recall Mike ever saying that about any other team.

If I remember, the Rockets were one of the few, if not the only one to have a winning record against Jordan and the Bulls...
Can you imagine Russel's jinx rubbing off on Maxwell?
John Lucas looks the same 30 years ago.
MAD MAX!!!
Mad max!
Mad Maxx!!
3 hardwood legends.
Ran into Max three times over 7-8 years in Charlotte,NC. I even got his number. Couldnt get hold of him though to do the workout
I met him at the Marathon on LaSalle Ave about 10 years ago.
Mutual respect.....
John lucas, Houston basketball OG
Juvie in 2021! Man reminds me of 1999.
Yo this video is GOATED 😂😂😂 Where's Hakeem 😂😂😂
One is a legend the other is (west)bricker :D
How many times yall need to hold hands?
Vernon did Drop 50 on Jordan
Cap

Crazy vs Insane
How many times they dapped each other up though.
Mad max
😏How many Goddamn times are they go’n dap 🖐🏾 each other up in a matter of seconds?😁😄
Westbrook was like who dat
Maxwell was a very underrated player. Very impactful
Who underrates him?
Nobody mad max was a hell of player!
Michael Air Who?
-Mad Max
John starks vernon maxwell and russell westbrook. same players
2 Straight Jackets, for 2 of the craziest!smh
MJ checks mad max under his bed
MJ eats maxwell for breakfast

Not when he was in the Houston Rockets.
MJ's record 1-5 against the Rockets. He won only once from 1990-1993.

How disrespectful acting like John Lucas not right there too.
We see Lucas all the time.
Russell definitely 6'5"
Ikr
No way
@@mikjord even other players say Russ not 6'3"
@@kobeplayeddefensetoo1351 With basketball shoes is probably vlose to 6'5". Mad Max, without shoes is 6'3".
He is 6"3. Not 6"5.
Mad Max couldn’t play in the NBA as it is today... no one in the stands to punch.
They must have exaggerated Maxwell’s height during his playing days because he’s not old enough to have started shrinking already. Russell looks at least an taller than Maxwell here, it might be the shoes but it couldn’t have made that much of a difference.
You literally have no good angle in the video to even make that statement lol. People acting like they are height experts.
@@handlebucket6285 Exactly lol and he looks around 6'4 range
That's because they have Westbrooks height wrong he's closer to 6'5

@@therealc.t.7085 he's the same height as dwade and him and James harden were virtually the same height.... u must not have been close enough

Imagine how much coke lucas and Maxwell have done combined?
They still look good🤷🏿♂️
Whew...Lolololol(SMH)...Truth!!!U outta be Shame Yo-Self👍🏾
Dey tuff but Starks tuffer
Kenny still thinks he is this guy
Looked like Westbrook was annoyed by Lucas
shouldn't had traded him for drex
You won a chip yet you still complaining like a B
nope. Thorpe was traded for Drex, not Mad Max
Maxwell quit on us after game 1 against the jazz. Honestly Maxwell was a huge liability on the rockets, cost them many games
