  My favorite Mutumbo moment was his interview after repeatedly blocking Anthony Randolph last year, (or the year before?), where he said something about Randolph wanting to tell his grandkids that he dunked on Mutumbo but that would never happen.

  Shout out to John Thompson.

  Willing to do what it took to win,
  not only a great player, an amazing person in general, but the BEST VOICE in NBA history

  I love this guy. How can anyone not?! This guy had a freaking awesome back story. AND had one of the more signature “poses” of the decade. Hate how the NBA started handing out techs for the wag.

  The finger wave was always funny because his finger is longer than most people’s arms.

  Who wants to sex Mutombo?

• Gerard Himself Posted: Jul.27 at 1:28 pm
  The NBA in 2010: where a fingerwag now probably cost you at least 25.000 dollars.

  Why do a “for old times sake” on Dikembe, then show him getting dunked on? You could have saved that for Grant Hills. Anyway, Dikembe is one of my all-time faves, more for the man he was off the court than for what he did on it. Not to be preachy but if more NBA players were as selfless and giving as Deke is, and gave back to their communities like he does, a real positive change could be made across the country.

  dikembe had like 20 names and he blocked shots and waved fingers and told u about it!!! thats what made him such a honor to get a dunk on. class act dude

  The longer this guy lives, with the accolades he continues to collect, the easier it will be to forget he ever played ball to begin with. If slam is going to do a for old times sake with deke then they should have shown pictures of numerous villages before his contributions and after. Like deke if I could be like deke.

  A hell of a fun player to watch on court, and a real humanitarian off of it. Mutombo was a multi-dimensional guy — he was definitely more than just a finger wag.

  “Please…. do not come here no more.” Amazing.

• barnabusb Posted: Jul.28 at 12:22 am
  Also, the “NBA Rising Stars” video profile on Mutombo is fantastic.

  Dikembe Mutombo Mpulando Mukamba Jean Jacques Wamatumbo. Legend.
