Who is Jason Maxiel?!?!?

Defensive dominance. Physical freak. Highlight reel consistency. Potential out the #%$hole. Sure there are a few young players that you could say have these attributes. But to some of you ignorant chumps, Jason Maxiell is probably the last player that comes to mind. That means you are the same ignorant chumps who thought Gilbert Arenas wasn't worth a first round draft choice in '01'. The same thickheaded suckers that thought Todd Fuller and Vitaly Potapenko were better choices than Kobe and Steve Nash in '96'. You are probably the same haters who overlooked Ben Wallace and Avery Johnson, just because they attended historically black universities. Maxiell is a name you will see on the top of all highlight reels and stats boards for a long time to come.



A 6'7", 260 lb power forward. Maxiell was selected by the Bad Boys with the 26th pick in the first round of the 2005 NBA Draft. He attended Newman Smith High School in Carrollton, Texas, where he proved he was a dude that nobody can mess with. During his career at the University of Cincinnati, where he was coached by Bob (B-Hugz) Huggins; he was one of the best players in the college rankings. The NCAA was essentially a stage for Maxiell to showcase his freaky abilities. Jason earned All-Conference USA Second Team honors. He was named Conference USA Sixth Man of the Year and earned C-USA All-Freshman Team honors. Averaged 9.3 points and 7.0 rebounds in the three C-USA Tournament games. He led Conference USA in blocked shots (2.8 bpg) and ranked 18th in the nation. His 91 blocks are the second-highest University of Cincinnati single-season total.The paint was like a mountain of cupcakes and Maxiell was Kirstie Alley.

He averaged 17.3 points in three postseason games and shot .607 from the field. Maxiell finished 11th on the University of Cincinnati's career scoring list with 1,566 points (13th in Conference USA history) and second on the University of Cincinnati career chart for blocked shots with 252 (4th in Conference USA). He played 129 consecutive games, the second-longest streak in Bearcats' history, and started the last 77 contests. Son was outstanding, he played each game as if he was on Death Row. Although these stats ain't Durant or Melo like, considering the coach and the system he was in; it is safe to say - the dude killed it. People compare his style to Ben Wallace (Former team mate), Kenyon Martin 'K-Mart' (Cincy Alumni), even Dennis Rodman 'D-Rod' (extroverted and crazy but could ball) and Darryl Dawkins (Chocolate Thunder, Double D). His scary athleticism and overall ability can turn the coolest dudes into swaggerless punks! Thats is what sets this kid apart from others!

Detroit did the smart thing and grabbed Jay Max at 26 overall. And nobody would fit in the Bad Boy's system better. He can out hustle, out muscle and degrade any dude willing to step up. This season Maxiell has had invaluable numbers off the bench, averaging 7.9 pts, 5.3 rebs and 1.1 blks per games. Once the Detroit coaching staff decide Maxiell should start full time, it will be judgement day for the front court suckers across the league. It takes more than a nation of millions to hold the Max back. The kid will be turning fans into fiends like hes Frank Lucas! When this brother blows up and y'all are like, "Who is Jason Maxiell?". I will be the dude kicking dirt in your face saying, "I told you so"!


Watch the kid eliminate the Cavs!(sorry Bron!)
