Dikembe Mutombo: a wonderful example off the court, but a terrible example on the court. He spent so much time waving fingers, throwing elbows, and talking smack, he's lucky he was even awarded defensive player of the year. Remember when he told the NBA to "go to hell" when he took 2nd place in that award for '93-'94? He'll always be on a list of greats with Patrick Ewing who could never bring in a world championship. Do I have at least 8 thumbs down for this?
yeah man, you are right. he is a living legend. i am a defender in basketball, and most of the moves i learned from his moves. 8 times all star....... wow!
I watched the Bush speech live as well, the only difference is now I can watch it almost pumping my fist with joy at how we don't have him as our president.
how ironic, when they clearly dont give a fuck about africa and have never invested in africa so it doesnt have to stay dependant on questionable help and support
People criticized him because it was hard to understand how he spoke, yet we didnt need to hear him speak. His actions with his charities spoke louder than words. Thank you Dikembe for the big heart that you have.
Man Mutombo was a great player on the court, and an even better person off the court. He is a great role model with a huge heart. We love ya Mutombo!
I just wish he won a ring, he deserves it. Sucks that his career ended in an injury. He was a big factor in the playoffs motivating the Rockets to fight hard and play with heart. We will miss ya Mutombo.
Inspired, Thank god we have people like this in the world..
