“Woooo! Get me another stein! I’m on a roll here!” Willie Cauley-Stein yelled as he easily downed what must have been his tenth beer of the evening. “Going to this authentic German restaurant was a great idea, Maxi!” Maxi Kleber, who had been forced into wearing a pair of too-small lederhosen for the occasion of…

Question: who even needs Puka Dumbbitch and Kristupids Coronavirus when you have one of the best assemblages of role-player talent in the entire league? Answer: not the Dallas Mavericks. Jalen Brunson can replace the production of Dumbbitch, no problem. Points, assists, it doesn’t matter. We saw it in this game. And Coronavirus? Maxi Kleber can…

I feel somewhat guilty for advertising the skirmish Maxi “Maxi Pad” Kleber got into as a “fight”, but if there’s one thing I’ve learned over the years, it’s that young males (the NBA’s, and thus my, average viewer demographic) LOVE watching fights. NBA videos purporting to contain footage of NBA players fighting routinely draw the…

Maxi Kleber did himself a great disservice when he scored 21 points in a game his rookie year. That game forever colored my perception of him and his scoring abilities. After that game, I always thought of him, and continue to this day to think of him, as a guy who is always a threat…

Dirk Nowitzki is supposedly retiring. Supposedly. He hasn’t said he’s doing so yet, just implied it, but everyone seems to think that this is it for him because he keeps getting standing ovations at every arena he visits. So let’s just say, for the sake of example, that he is retiring. Wow! Great career, yada…

I can only imagine how salty the Warriors commentators were during this game. Well, “only” is wrong, because I could just load up the other version of the game and find out firsthand how salty they were. That would be easy, but I just want to imagine the saltiness. What if it’s not as salty…

First video of the year for Maxi Kleber! I was beginning to worry that he’d just go the whole season without scoring more than 13 points despite playing decent minutes. Normally, a role-player of Kleber’s quality would have notched up to 10 DTB videos by this point in the season. But Kleber seemed content to…

With each game that passes, I become more and more convinced that Maxi “Glue Stick” Kleber is a legit NBA player. Not a very exciting player, or a particularly productive one, but a legit one nonetheless. He can definitely stick around for a few years and then go back to Europe because he’s probably not…

Wow, the Mavericks totally choked this one away. Like, really bad. Almost unbelievable. Blame can surely be cast in many directions after this one, but if anyone tries directing any at Maxi Kleber, I will fight them. And win. I am ready to defend Kleber’s honor. It is not his fault that the Spurs went…
