Per wiretap.

I guess that's that Mad Max. I'll never forget that block he had on Chandler a few years back when tried catching that alley oop.

Maxiell Appreciation Thread 

Post#3 » by BadMofoPimp » Thu Jul 18, 2013 5:23 pm

Maxiell is joing the Orlando Magic on a 2 year $5 mil deal.

He has been a consumate professional during his Tenure with the Detroit Pistons.

He has played his role swell and was a hoot.

Good Luck Maxiel and Welcome to the Magic.

he had some great moments with Detroit , but he just didn't have a spot anymore.

Glad he landed somewhere. He should get some good minutes out in Orlando.

I hope he does well, dude was a consumate professional here despite being a bit out of shape early on a few years. He had some memorable dunks/blocks...like the Chandler block, and he even hit a game winning jumper one year.

He checked out for 3 years after he signed a fat extension. Good Riddance.

He always seemed to play his best ball versus the Magic. It was simply time for him to move on, I wish him well.
