    I can't believe how many people here need to look up the word "gullible". Too bad it's not actually in the dictionary. I guess they'll never learn what it means.

    I want you to look up the word fun -- then sit back and enjoy the ride. Remember we are on an 8 game win streak heading out of all star weekend and Mad Max would be the perfect piece to complete our championship puzzle.

    you could give max another 8 years off, without stepping foot on a court, and I bet he could still beat rafer at horse.

    Vernon would bring some much needed defensive intensity to this team. He's such a bad ass, he's not afraid to d up his own son.

    come on Meowgi,
    you know that Max lead the Rockets in assists that year.
    And you know who was at the end of those assists,

    hint it was Carl Herrera!
