Celtics Traded Cedric Maxwell in 1985 — He FEARS Jaylen Brown is Getting the Same Treatment

Cedric Maxwell has seen this movie before. A Finals MVP shipped out of Boston — and then the stories start leaking. Max was the 1981 Finals MVP; three years later the Celtics traded him for Bill Walton, and the front office went to the papers. Now he’s watching it happen to Jaylen Brown.

Max doesn’t hold back: the planted stories, the “seventh most valuable player” leaks, the smears he lived through in 1985 — “Only Red did it back then. Who’s doing it now?” Plus: the only trade in NBA history where two Finals MVPs were dealt for each other (Maxwell-for-Walton), the Giannis-for-Brown conversation, Robert Parish calling Jordan a bully, and Max’s message for Jaylen on how to answer it all.
