Mad max is by far the best nba storyteller along with John salley. Could listen to this muthafucka all day 😂

[@statusboom-x6348]

Agreed. He reminds me of one of my uncles.

[@YueZ30trading]

Ron arrest is a good honorary mention

[@kavossia12]

I love this guys interviews, seems like the type of guys you could just sit down and have hours of normal everyday conversation!

[@bigpat2436]

Some people are just so gifted. Imagine if Mad Max took it serious how good he would’ve been.

[@davinmitchell316]

Vernon was just on the Mase & Cam pod last week 🔥 guest appearance

[@Ripkingjack]

Thank you for staying true to who you are Mr Maxwell and sharing your story. There is alot of us out here just surviving day to day working low paying jobs where we overworked and underappreciated. This interview really made my night working the liquor store much more entertaining and gave more perspective on my own life

[@kareemshiver4603]

[@MackJay-nt8fn]

Vernon a good story teller

[@denvernuggsjeans]

great episode. vern seems like such a cool dude and i hope he does more pods because he’s a hell of a storyteller

[@AMart870]

I've seen a lot of Vernon Maxwell interviews but Theo/Run Your Race asked Mad Max some different questions, for those that don't know Mad Max used to run up the chimney looking for the smoke 💨 him and John Starks were the only 2 Guards I saw go at it with MJ!

[@extendedplay8830]

Vern needs his old show Vern was a beast, I’m 51 years old, trust me , I remember when Vern was a problem, frfr !!

[@coachshawnkent397]

Great episode. I grew up watching Mad Max on NBC . Houston games were rare Toronto mostly showed Celtics & Lakers games . Sometimes we could watch Pistons games as well . I remember first time seeing that Houston team Max always stood out . Big fan from Toronto 🇨🇦 .

[@missayawk]

Anytime I see a podcast with the name John Salley or Vern Maxwell I AM THERE. GUARANTEED JOKES AND LAUGHTER.

[@vernongoolsby851]

Great great Interview.. Mad Max was so funny an so real💯💯💯🔥

[@statusboom-x6348]

Dope interview. Salute to mad max!

[@deadboyyami8350]

Max got theo saying MF 😂😂😂

[@flushingfred]

In the 80s, MFer was the popular word before the N word took over in the 90s/2000s 😆

[@carlcolemanjr6]

Theo my boy keep up the good work

[@DC_202.]

Great pod!

[@thadword]

Great interview

[@jasonwaddy6237]

Classic Max, great interview

[@kiddynamite2274]

Def the best episode 😂

[@missayawk]

10:30 Talking about father figures. The CLASSIC movie Boyz N The Hood. The relationship between Tre and his parents is a key lesson. Even though they were separated the mother ( Angela Bassett )knows once her boy reached 11 yrs old beginning puberty there was nothing she could teach him about being a man, and Furious Styles accepting the responsibilities of raising and teaching his son by his words and his actions is one of the most underrated parts of the movie. We need more Furious Styles as well as mothers like the role Angela Bassett played ( can't remember the characters name).

[@kerry-j4m]

AGREED and well said,most people miss that important detail from that film,but,concentrate on the violent situations instead. The only stupid scene in the movie is when ole dude gets shot by those gangbangers and his friends take him home instead of to the hospitol. WTF. LOL. With friends like this,who needs enemies.

[@playmaker7331]

4:14 “Tropical weather mf!” Vernon funny af dawg 😭

[@Justcallmenoon]

What’s the Kobe time stamp

[@FoodTherapy97]

Max a classic dawg 😂😂😂😂

[@toddgoza3522]

Mad max

[@EulissBenoit]

They should ask Robert Horey and Sam Cosell to visit

[@coachprescott72]

Love it

[@therealJET00]

18:54 lmao since when is Gainsville by the beach? it's literally in the middle of the state if you look at a map. yall gotta do better research

[@marcuscage5439]

Vernon Maxwell vs Charles Oakley who y’all got

[@jessemiller4970]

[@Paylorboy]

Look like they in NODA 704

[@coachprescott72]

Too funny

[@fade2black1982]

I'm dying at "Season Hoes" lmao

[@PressureP2323]

Where da hell JB & Kennedy at

[@layuponthedownlow]

No way, i saw the 90s and vernon maxwell always beat micheal jordan. Idk what the deal is, maybe he gets a paycheck eveytime he praises jordan, but for those who saw the full games from 1990-91 season to 1992-93 season, the bulls can never win against the rockets. Jordan is the beyonce of the NBA fr

[@MrRiq29]

Jordan is 12 and 14 against the rockets what u mean he could never beat them

[@layuponthedownlow]

@MrRiq29 i don't know what's Jordan's career record against the rockets, but jordan never beats vernon maxwell on a houston rockets jersey. FR Jordan IS the BEYONCE of basketball. Fr fr

[@MrRiq29]

@layuponthedownlow you can't be serious 😒 1992 bulls vs Houston 100 to 114 maxwell 23 min 17 points jordan 41 min 35 points bull win

[@layuponthedownlow]

@MrRiq29 BS, jordan can never win against vernon maxwell bcoz he is scared of mad max. Fr fr

[@MrRiq29]

@layuponthedownlow but vernon doing interviews talking about how good jordan is 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣ok buddy u win

[@Mr40ozkilla81]

Another great Kobe story. If Vern gave props to a 17 year old, we know it's the greatest compliment.

[@vebgnx4513]

strange how max talks about the finals in 1995 as if he was playing .....

[@marlonchristopher9278]

Vernon 🧢 on the 9 years straight .. just checked the stats .. played 82 game once that's not a 🧢 its a double 🧢

[@sr_73_]

I believe his point was he played pretty much every game he could minus suspensions and he was traded mid season so typically you will miss a couple of games until you clear the physical for the new team so that accounts for 79 games in like 2 of the seasons. Not to mention there was 3 NBA lockout seasons in the 90s which shortened the schedule... So naw he wasn't cappn the way you thought.

[@m2a6n0o0]

They probably would’ve won with max

[@ayoung8645]

Vernon is lying. Houston suspended him after game 1 against Utah in the first round. He never played in the 1995 finals.

[@wta1981]

Yea...love the pod in general and this is a great interview but not knowing he didn't play in the 95 Playoffs was a big oversight.
