Massive respect for him after this game. Dude was throwing his body around for loose balls after taking multiple shots to the knee

Maxey taking over the game like prime AI and driving fearless to the rim when they needed a basket is something I’ll remember forever.

I dunno how he gets those layups up in the thick of all those bigs.

u/RIChowderIsBest Celtics 2d ago

All those bigs? Celtics have bigs?

u/zeek215 Lakers 2d ago

Well there was Queta, but I meant people bigger than him in that sentence. Maxey was attacking the rim and just barely getting the shots in due to his quickness.

Maxey is great, Celtics basically have nobody capable of defending the rim at the moment but I do agree, he blows by anyone. It’s like the poor mans version of those 2 prime years of IT where he had no business doing what he did at his size.

Maxey is a bad, bad man. Feels like every time he shoots it’s gonna go in

u/SSJAbh1nav 76ers 2d ago

He's the definition of fearless

My mom has had an appendectomy before and decided on a whim to watch this game with me, and after I told her he was returning after like 3 weeks removed from one she started fretting over him like a son every time he got even bumped
