Episode Details

Cedric Maxwell, traveling to Oklahoma with the Boston Celtics, recruited Nick Gelso to fill in for Josue Pavon on tonight's podcast. 

This episode was one Max simply couldn't resist using as a platform to get his thoughts out on the recent uproar over Gale King's interview of Lisa Leslie on Kobe Bryant.

Max toes the line, seeing both sides of the story but, at the end of the day, he has a message for Snoop Dog and company....

Max to Snoop: You're not doing Kobe a favor. You're not representing Kobe Bryant well, that's what I say you're not representing the virtues of who he was at the end of the day. Yes, you have a right to be angry! Yeah, you do but you don't have a right to call Gale a bi$$ch or a Ho or threaten her life. That's just not honoring the guy Kobe Bryant was.

00:23 

you get are you there yeah yeah okay somebody working now 

00:29 

yeah we're good okay good to go hi are you want me to take this what do you want me to edit myself out or you want me and no you want to put yourself in that day 

00:41 

be funny or be serious or both like we I think we bill the discounted be serious right now okay with the the the ship is going on we don't want Snoop outside the door though we don't 

00:57 

okay all right all intro and now I'm not gonna do anything like warm so 

01:05 

where are you were white spot yeah I'm in the quest by Matthew was great walk into this bar place but the guy just got here for a minute talk yeah I was like 10 minutes okay 

01:18 

so Max this morning I get a phone call from usually I'm all those little choir right and today I was I was busy breaking down sound from last night's game called me and I didn't know that like the crap at the family Gail and and Colby and you know what the hell's going on 

01:41 

it it's a whole nother it's almost like a almost seems like black civil war all right the way things that go over right now between and you know I'm I'm kind of torn between both because being a broadcaster you know I know I I looked at some of the things the gal said that you know he had those questions had to be S. but at the same time I think that there are parts of her day weren't sensitive to what was going on you're not both kind of laughed and we talked about and I said it would remind me you know you have been going to the dentist before you went to the dentist said you had they had the open cavity and somebody gave you some Cold War the 

02:30 

02:31 

and then watching the interview is just Jari I me eventually I think initially you was it was you know handle pretty well right but then once she asked a couple of other questions and start pressing the issue I think that's when it went it went south and her yeah 

02:53 

and I think that is what made a lot of people are not I think a lot of people didn't even a lot of people didn't understand what she was doing it was just bad they just want to be they were angry because they've been really follow her line of questioning they were just more insulted they she would even say anything 

03:15 

black Max is the is that the big thing as being black or white I think it's just that they were just they were just 

03:24 

and they what they they saw what they felt was was just 

03:30 

yeah that anything that was going to be asked it wasn't going to stroke Colby say something good about him I think people are just going to be upset it was it was only a matter of time before this came up under will pop up on Twitter we both get it you know there's a line of people that are going to bring up that the you know the Kobe's past we're all yeah and no matter what and I get an expected to be Gail who's kind of on the safe side right to kind of please save so opus crying for Gail Snoop is doing selfie videos and I don't know rappers I never even heard of and then Gail release is a kind of retraction or not from a retraction more like to listen to it it's entirety is that good move and I mean to me it's like just let it go I I don't even know I think the fire was already let I think the house was already on fire and I just don't know how you put the flame you know I mean that is with the 2 alarm fire and you bring your bring the glass of water you're free unless the weather it essentially that's where that's where it is 

04:44 

and I don't think that once you got IT 9 

04:47 

people didn't even didn't even hear what she'd say it all they've heard was you know it and then when you start hearing the rappers and 

04:57 

time is from other people I think err by just jumped on it just jumped on full bore well you you you too but now and I I was waiting to see if any of you Max 

05:10 

anyone any minority I would say anyone even white people everyone was kind of just outraged hi 

05:17 

like I said even media members to upset you know who's going to mention it who's the the day that could be passed they mentioned it in passing twice but E. S. P. N. hasn't said it once nobody has I never thought Gail well he don't want to do it with Leslie I mean and she was kind of pushing her OP saying yeah yeah I think I think that Lisa Leslie kind of handled it well 

05:45 

it could be all I think big deal was was going a little bit more you know we should gill said 

05:52 

and I think it was a fair question to ask her and say well how did you did you know did you ever see that because you know she's a pretty woman in it right be over you know approach you in that way M. legitimate question yeah so Leslie said no he never did he handled himself with class and that that would dignity he was my friend and then when gale said 

06:17 

06:18 

or you never would see that because you were his for you get I think that's what it's working with off the off the radio and it was war the way she said and I think the way that she handled Gayle king the way she handled her interview with Charlie Rose was everybody thought that she was a little small because that was her free so she didn't go full bore a trolley road and because of that I think that 

06:47 

she kind of went the other way I've been a little bit more aggressive initiate did interview with R. Kelly and she got all kind of kudos for that so 

06:58 

it was she was just kind of open and and she was she was out there hello she got caught 

07:05 

you got you got caught what he got caught with a jabot who <
