Mad Max is what Pat Beverley thinks he is. And lets be honest he can come close at times. But it was a different kind of ferocity back then. You just love to see guys like Vernon Maxwell playing on your team.

[@woodsrdy51]

Mad Max, can actually play though, Pat Beverly is just bothersome.

[@blipblip]

@@woodsrdy51 There were 'a few' guys like that to be conservative. Of top of my head, the entire cast of bad boys, Xaiver McDaniel, Gary Payton, Barkley, Mourning, Starks and Oak just to name a few. Some are just out-right more nutty and in your face than the others, such as the entire cast of bad boys (with Lambieer, Rodman and Mchorn spear-heading the rest) lol. Pretty much of them would just go toe to toe in term to anyone physically and never backed down. It was the overall culture of letting physicality happens as part of the game back then that led to the existence of such breed. They still existed around and after 2000 as we can see some of those fires in guys like Rasheed Wallance, Doug Christie and Ron Artest. But the dirty plays were from that point on heavily punished. And now we see a lot of wannabe tough guys that aren't actually tough but they love pretending like one by showing off their guns after some and-1 plays.

I like how regardless of who they are what they achieved and how much trash MJ talk to them in the past, they all unanimously give it up to MJ as the GOAT. I'm sure that being crowned the GOAT by people who've actually played the game means a lot more than the fans saying it.
