Jason Maxiell also eats Aaron Gray

FanHouse friend Matt Watson has long held that Jason Maxiell eats babies, which he does. Do not get your babies near Jason Maxiell’s mouth, for he will surely eat them. It’s science.

This weekend, however, Maxiell revealed his new culinary preferences. Seems he’s developing a taste for the white meat:

Poor Aaron Gray. As if being big and white wasn’t enough of an NBA cross to bear, God also saw fit to make him slow and unathletic. It’s the perfect combination, if by “perfect,” you mean, “ideal for Jason Maxiell’s twisted aims.” That’s just … nasty.

As for the rest of the team, The X’s and O’s has a quick post (which I’ve already shared on my Tumblr, natch) detailing the problems the Bulls had defending Chauncey Billups man to man. Even though this year’s Bulls team looks about ten thousand times worse than last year’s, it has the same systemic flaws. For a team that prides itself (or used to pride itself) on defense, not being able to guard so many players is a real sign of weakness.

At this point, though, what do you expect?
