    Due to mad max's contract situation, I think we should go after this guy instead:

    Mad Max is the last piece needed for a championship run. I'd trade any of the non-stars for him.

    Don't forget that Maxwell speaks Spanish too, so he can communicate with our Latin American players.

    Remember how he and Herrera played the Latin American leisure sport of weight throwing back in the day.

    Viva La Maxwell!

    On the court Maxwell is his own Coalition of the Willing invasion force ready to disarm and vanquish the enemy.

    Heck ya! Maxwell hasn't aged a day. He's all those drugs in his life, he's permanently preserved at age 33. He's good to go. ;)

    He's got child support and herpes lawsuit payments every month, I am shocked he's not playing in Europe or something. Or selling meat door to door.

    Without Maxwell we don't make that initial championship run. He provided some great memories. But I am tired of glorifying this punk as some kind of legend. He was a horrible teammate, a cancer, a quitter. The original Quitten is Vernon Maxwell. I don't care what Kenny Smith says about the guy, how about you ask Carl Herrera what he thinks of the punk. Maxwell is scum. There I said it. Noose me up.

    his teammates said great thing about him and that whole reason why you hate him was resolved by the most important people .. the Rockets, his teammates and Rudy T..

    you really want me to pull up those Maxwell articles for the millionth time to prove that to you again?

    Adding Mad Max would certainly trump the Gasol deal, the Shaq deal and the Kidd acquisition if it happens. He would add the toughness and veteran leadership that this team needs. He would also show Deke how to properly react to unruly fans. Simply put, it's the KG deal to the Celts but times 10.

    I just don't see Stern letting this happen as it would tip the balance of power so far in the Rockets' favor that nobody would even watch the playoffs as the outcome would certainly be an NBA Finals sweep dealt out by the Houston Maxwells errr I mean Rockets.

    1997: Ordered to pay $592,000 for knowingly infecting a woman with herpes. The plaintiff was awarded a default judgment as Maxwell did not appear in court.

    Just say no to the 'herp...or maybe thats what this team needs to get going, a good STD

    Maxwell has been fighting to get back in the league for years ~ it's only the evil of Mark Cuban that has kept him away and caused so much grief for the almighty City of Clutch.


    Side note ~ the City of Clutch was annexed by Houston in 1994.

    i've heard he can only swing a freeweight half as fast as he used to be able to. i'm not sure he's what we need at this point.

    edit: dammit cdrive and tinman got there first.
