I feel bad for you family DJ :-( All that stupid laws and government in Africa needs to stop. What the hell? But DJ, be proud to be with one of the best teams in the league! I am sure your dad would be proud of you and your brothers would probably think your cool to be a NBA player. You should also be proud to be in the NBA becuz your a center and you work with some of the best players in the league suck as Kobe!
I would LOVE to see this man have some individual success. I'm realistic, I realize his offensive game is worse than Ben Wallace's, but I'd love for him to get a few more minutes of playing time and let him show his heart, defensive determination, and hussle.
I live in Belgium and I know the story of congo cash very good. He went to Belgium when he was 17 years old but he hadn't play basketball before so he had to learn everything. The strange is that DJ was waiting for the bus when one of the best Belgian basketball players noticed him because of his size. he plays for the Belgian national basketballteam and I am realy a fan of him, we take always or banner with us with on it DIDIER 4 EVER!!!!
yeeeeah dj Mbenga iz really a dope guy. for some reason i liked him ever since he came to the nba & was on the mavs. and as soon as hee came to the LAKERS i was his biggest fan. I respect him waaay more than i do lebron lol...CONGO CA$H...
@bboy artest didnt do anything to ariza, that was his agent. But i do miss ariza on the lakers though, he was perfect for them. No homo.. Turiaf also!
@ValdezBoyz22CH Dikembe is from the Democractic Republic of the Congo same as Mbenga, remind you there are two congos in Africa who happen to be neighbors. To distinguish people call them Congo Brazzaville and Congo kinshasa (their respective capitals).
Folks that has been a geographis lesson of the day to my Americans who dont know Montana is part of the United States.
What his father did for him and his brothers is truly a story of sacrifice. A far cry from many of us Americans who see sacrifice as a father buying an HDTV and PS3 for their kids.
Great story, sad story, moving story. I hope he has a long career, and hope he stays with the Lakers. It's these kind of stories that I hope people hear about, to keep them grounded, not always focused on keeping up with the Joneses.
A true inspiration, I hope he never leaves the Lakers i like his unorthodox style of play and most of all his energy. Defiantly a fan favorite..I need to get a Mbenga Jersey
i totally agree...he looks like he belongs with the lakers...unlike ron artes, dont get me wrong, he may be good, but i hate him for what he did to ariza...i think ariza belonged on the lakers too, too bad he's gone
i hate ppl that brag about how the from the hood and how tough they are or "the hood" is. The congo is even worse then "the hood" in the usa the cops can help u in congo the cops are AGAINST u
Damn I just got home from the game and Mbenga is a monster at defense and still good at offense the Lakers need to put him in more. His story would make a great movie.
Impossible to hate him.
