    I salute you, Mr. Mutombo, your work on-and-off court is a legacy that will never be forgotten.

    Mutombo says" “Nobody ever thought the big fellow would the person they’re carrying out of the arena. I was going out like a wounded soldier. I think that was one of the best memories, giving myself up for this league and my team and my teammates.”

    GWS Deke. I will terribly miss his top-of-the-hill defense and the finger-wagging moments. :(

    I bet he can still play as old as his jersey number if not for this. Best wishes. He is to be saluted for.

    This is really old and may have already been posted, but it has some classic lines from Deke.
