As far as he knew, Boston was the most racist city in America.<\/p>\n<p id=\"0yQqiK\">Cedric Maxwell told a slightly different story. One of universal disdain for his people in those times, whether in his native North Carolina or in Los Angeles, where policemen approached him about stolen rental vehicles.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ZbCrcI\">\u201cI don\u2019t see Boston being any more racist than it was in LA,\u201d Maxwell said.<\/p>\n<p id=\"fHr5P0\">McAdoo and Maxwell came up playing in epic battles with the state\u2019s best players that prepared them for the next level. It was also a time of changing dynamics, as NC schools integrated and white schools pulled players away from black powerhouses.<\/p>\n<p>Dave Cowens played him steadily for 20 games in Boston, though less than the Knicks had, until a 29-53 finish ushered in Bill Fitch, Larry Bird and a new direction. Boston would flip the picks as part of a larger plan that yielded them Kevin McHale, Robert Parish while the mastermind on Detroit\u2019s end, none other than Dick Vitale, would soon be doing TV.<\/p>\n<p>McAdoo also discussed the praise Kareem Abdul-Jabbar offered him and their mutual respect, the roots that he and Maxwell share in the NC basketball scene and how much the three point shot would have helped his scoring average.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUp top, me and Coop we used to play horse and stuff, he was better than me at the top,\u201d McAdoo said. \u201cThe corners I can hit. I got to believe that would\u2019ve put another 3-4 points on my average. My best year I averaged 35, I might\u2019ve averaged 38-40 points per game.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On the front page of The New York Times\u2019 Sports Monday, Bob McAdoo found out he\u2019d been traded to his least favorite city.
