## Caption

MAD MAX IS BACK. After sending shockwaves through the basketball world & beyond with his viral interview, Vernon Maxwell is officially welcomed into the ALL THE SMOKE family.

Matt shares the internet's best reactions to Max's episode, including high praise from Jamie Foxx and call-outs from cougars in the comment section.

Max then unleashes more can't-miss stories from his playing career. He shares what it was like when a high school-aged Kobe Bryant rolled up to the 76ers practice & sets the record straight on what really happened after he trash-talked Magic Johnson.

The guys pivot to today's hottest headlines: exploring the Houston Rockets & OKC Thunder's playoff potential, reacting to the Boston Celtics' shocking $6.1B sale, and breaking down Brandon Jennings challenge to the 2009 NBA Draft class.

Plus, the guys reflect on Week One of the NCAA Tournament & discuss how college basketball could be saved from transfer portal chaos.
