Vernon Maxwell Drops Epic NSFW Rant on What It’s Like to Guard Michael Jordan

There weren’t too many players who could cover Michael Jordan. It usually took  a team to try to keep him from going off. We know the Pistons had their own system, aka, The Jordan Rules, but now we’re hearing from Vernon Maxwell what  it was like trying to  guard the Greatest to ever do it. Maxwell appeared on the Ringer’s Real Ones podcast with Raja Bell and Logan Murdock, and he explained what it was like to guard Michael Jordan.

Maxwell made sure to drop plenty expletives.

Listen to the NSFW rant below:

“When you play against that muhf*cka, you gotta be a little different. That muhf*cka, he can sense a muhf*cka if you scared. You can’t be none of that shit. When he elbows you in your shit, if you don’t do nothing, if you don’t elbow that muhf*cka back in his shit, he know he got a bitch out here tonight.

I’m just being 1,000. He’s a killer out there. He’s a dirty muhf*cka. You have to be to be that great, man. Night in and night out. You have to be a dawg, and have that grit, that dirty shit.”

Mad Max was/is crazy.
