Nah I can’t hat Max been calling it for 4 months

Max got kicked off FirstTake because he was cooking SAS regularly

100%. I think TO calling Max blacker than SAS was the last straw for him😂

That was literally the nail in the coffin 😂

fairs. solid and unbiased matchup analysis

When he doesn’t have to be performative on those dumbass debate shows he’s very good at talking about sports in general. Intelligent dude

Yeah I agree Max is a fantastic analyst was just forced to out clown Stephen A on First take

100%

max has always had solid basketball takes. has he jumped out the window a few times and had some ridicules quotes? sure, but then he’ll have takes like this. i always liked him more than SAS (and he is definitely blacker)

A lot of his crazy takes were forced tho. You have to say crazy shit when you’re on those debate shows for ratings. Anytime I’ve seen him on platforms where he’s just able to talk hoops or football or boxing or whatever he’s usually a pretty calculated no fluff down to earth take kind of guy

that’s true, and i think that’s why i enjoyed his run on first take a bit more than skip’s. bayless would just troll the whole damn show, but max knew when to reel it in. his analysis on hoops and boxing were always on point.

Yeah I thought it was really lame when he went on his whole giving up Knicks fandom tour after we missed out on KD/Kyrie/Zion But that being said he’s for the most part a very smart and unbiased analyst, has been on this for months I can’t hate

That’s bc he doesn’t have to be performative on those dumbass debate shows. Whenever he’s not been forced to be a puppet for views he’s always been a very objective & fair analyst & just talking sports in general

Yeah Max is good people now

Mondgreen too. I had all my bookmarks of his podcast clips ready but then he apologized to Brunson’s face ON LIVE TV!

Yeah fuck him tho lowkey all that shit he’s said about KAT over the years & calling him out for missing a game when someone close to KAT died… he’s a real dickhead

Bro is all casual about calling it like he had the script haha

This is why I love Max. He always has the best most accurate takes without looking for the clips saying “they will destroy them” or some shit like that for views

Damn. Way better than all the espn anchors except perk

I said before the finals that okc would beat ny but the spurs would lose Bad matchup style wise like he said

Dominated OKC did he really watch the Series

@Talisman_Arusi He was talking about the regular season, that was from before the playoffs

That’s why max is the goat bruh 🔥 his way of punditry and analysis is top notch, really don’t need him doing debates tbh

I saw Max on a flight once he was very nice

Another Art Vandelay… where is Mr. Pennypacker lol

Beleive me, Max cried when the Knicks won, he is a Knicks fan, ESPN payed him to say all that dumb stuff to debate Stephen A.

not max predicting plays like he's got the script in hand

@BarstoolBigCat @PFTCommenter can I submit a whose back for Glasses. Max Kellerman with Glasses seems all the way back, @Zaccornelius_ their new glasses saw a knicks win a championship... Glasses seem back

@BarstoolBigCat @PFTCommenter @Zaccornelius_ Tell PFT short kings are back too

Wow he's actually good at his job

Been saying it for years bro know ball WAYYYYY more than SAS & that’s why SAS got that nigga fired lmao

They talk shit about Kellerman and Rich Paul but they continuously have good bball takes

@espn get this man back onto @FirstTake

@ibukun_dami I guess Max saw it coming a long time ago even when it didn't look like it

I’ve been calling it since the beginning of the season

Fired off first take btw

Max is a ball-knower

He also called out the refs as well

Max was on point…

@JayTTheMan15 Give nick wright credit too he been saying whoever came out the west was gon to lose the finals

Max is the man

Max know ball more than almost anybody. His only bad take ever was IGUODALA

He’s had the most consistent factual takes in basketball journalism.
