    As a lifelong Houston Rockets and NBA fan this makes me sad thinking how good of a man Mutumbo was and how we lost him too soon.

    Pure defense? Who is better Hakeem or Mutombo

      Definitely Hakeem Olajuwon. He has the edge because he has the most steals of all time for a Center. Hakeem even retired in the top 10 in steals. The next Center with the most steals was David Robinson, and he did not even crack the top 50.

    When this guy was talking trash on Court, his opponents would do everything to make him stop

    No offense but I have to focus to understand both dikembe and Yao and that is coming from a proficient english listener. I don't understand how they could have understood each other.

      The real Slim Shady he's not hard to understand. I think it depends on what dialect you're used to. He speaks English with an African accent and I'm used to it and that's coming from an English teacher.

      They understand each other as well as they understand native english accent

      LeGoat James I can understand Yao just fine and also Dikembe but he is harder to understand.

      Very easy to understand for me. Perhaps because I've been listening to him since the 80s helps :-)

      What is a “proficient” English speaker? There are so many dialects that to be proficient, you have to be good at a lot of them lol
