    if i was 57, i'd do it.

    Get paid a million or whatever the NBA vet's Minimum is to get courtside tickets to watch a great basketball team? Yeah, where do I sign up?

    Plus, the owner is real great about your cause to your Hospital.

    Just having Mutumbo on the bench makes watching games far more entertaining.

    if he's down for it, he's the perfect guy to have on the team even if he doesn't play another minute. you can see how much of a role model he is for the young guys on this team, he really shows them how to be a professional and there's no question that kind of attitude has allowed landry to blossom and hopefully we'll see the same out of brooks and green as well.

    we'd lose the intimidation that Deke's elbows bring us. Some people underestimate that.. there were a few times last night where I saw the lane parted like the red sea after Deke got the rebound. :D

    That's cool,but they need to find a young talent that can play 18 mins a night behind yao.

    As long as we bring in a younger viable backup C, I'm all for it. Dikembe can ride along for the ring. I'd love to see Deke get a championship, but it looks like it won't be this season.

    Now Morey is getting stupid .Mutombo as you will see in a few weeks will be all worn out and Morey should be planning the back up center position at this time instead of being silly! :p

    He feels next year is the year, and probably wants him to be a part of it.

    We can find some new blood in the draft.

    I think Deke has something left in the tank. He'll certainly get a chance to show it now that Yao is down. Bring him back if shows something between now and the playoffs.
