:rofl: Nice resume' Since that was only 2004; lets no forget the face mask he gave LeBron James, and then he got Tracy McGrady pretty bad to.

And knocked out Carl Landry's tooth that was re-knocked out in the playoffs. Ironic that he sponsored building a hospital. Even more ironic that he was a med student with intentions of healing people <edit, edit: Nevermind - (Contrary to some claims, Mutombo did not attend Georgetown as a pre-med. Mutombo was enrolled in the School of Languages and Linguistics, and was the only SLL graduate to have played varsity basketball.)>.

April 9, 1999: Chris Childs, lost a tooth; Marcus Camby, shot to throat; Larry Johnson, hit in the head; Patrick Ewing, hit in the head


Bahaha I wanna see that game! :D

As much as I love Big Shot Rob, Are we sure that it wasn't a flop?

Those sharp elbows make Deke the sexiest man on the basketball court.

If Deke never made it to the NBA, he could've had a good career in the UFC.
