    At the age of 34, Dikembe Mutombo (winning the DPOY) and Allen Iverson (winning the MVP) by themselves willed the Philadelphia 76ers to the NBA Finals and then shocked the world when they beat the Lakers in Game 1. That was at the age of 34, after playing in the league fo 9 years.

    Rockets fans forget that by the time Mutombo go to the Rockets he really was a shell of his former self defensively as a player, and the fact that shell was still a dominant defensive force at times is a testament to how great a player he actually was.
