Rockets Legend, Who Called Michael Jordan “A Dirty M*erF*ker”, Destroys Donovan Mitchell’s Jazz After Their Loss to Luka Doncic’s Mavs
Donovan Mitchell and the Utah Jazz’s season is officially over. They were eliminated from the playoffs after losing game 6 to Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks. However, as the Utah Jazz failed to meet set expectations again, their poor display has excited one Rockets legend in particular, who is known for his notorious comments on Michael Jordan.
Vernon Maxwell is a former NBA player who is known for his stint with the Houston Rockets. He was an integral part of the 95 and 96 championship teams. Maxwell was considered to be the second most important player behind Hakeem Olajuwon.
Although, he is also known for his comments on His Airness. Maxwell once called Jordan a killer on the court and said he was a dirty m*erf*ker. To add to it, he is now rejoicing over the fact that the Jazz have been knocked out of the playoffs.

It’s safe to say Maxwell does not like the Utah Jazz. Known for his harsh comments, he often takes a dig at them. And after the Jazz lost in the playoffs again, Maxwell let everyone know how he felt on Twitter. He tweeted, “A lot of sad toothless hillbillies in Salt Lake tonight. “

This is the first time Luka Doncic has moved past the first round in his career. His first two trips to the playoffs were cut short by the Los Angeles Clippers. Luka has been spectacular in the playoffs but he did not have enough help the last two times. But this time his teammates stepped up and delivered even when Doncic was hurt. Luka will be confident that he has a solid team to rely on and that he is not alone in this battle.
For the Jazz, this is another playoff disappointment. They did have a shot to win the game, but Bojan Bogdanović missed a wide-open three-pointer in the dying seconds. However, this goes far deeper than a missed shot. This was the second time in a row that they have blown a double-digit lead in an elimination game in the playoffs.
Last year they had a 25-point lead, but they let the Los Angeles Clippers come back and win the series. This year they had a 12-point lead, but they could not hold on to that. Surely, the Jazz will have to undergo some change in the offseason and they may need to consider trading some of their stars to rebuild this team.
