"I'm still here," he booms. Not that anyone asked. Not so far tonight, anyway. If the New York Knicks had not shed Patrick Ewing over the summer, no one would be obsessed with Mutombo's future. But with Ewing gone and Marcus Camby thought too fragile and immature to last a full season at center in the NBA, who is more qualified to replace one Georgetown center than another? And who is more entitled to have its voids filled than a team from New York? Thus, the nightly spectacle of reporters descending upon Mutombo, seeking to pin down his plans. This is easy: He has no plans. And neither, for the moment, do the Hawks. They are happy with his play now that he has fully recovered from the malaria that sidelined him at the start of the season.

Q: How did it feel to get in there and finally make a real big impact in a playoff game? Dikembe Mutombo: It was great. It kind of gave the coaches a lot of confidence that I can come out and contribute so much for this ballclub, and tonight, I knew that I was going to get more minutes than I did the night before and I was more prepared mentally, and physically, as well. Q: Does this change the perception of the whole series, because the Nets were supposed to be the smaller team and now with you, you can matchup with Duncan or Robinson. Dikembe Mutombo: I knew that it we came in here trying to win these first two games and we let the first game slip away and then we felt that tonight was our night. We jumped on them from the beginning and we didn't give them the chance to breathe. We knew that we played against a great team that got the league's Most Valuable Player. It's a matter of just being aggressive and that's what they did tonight. Q: Is there any guarantee now that you are going to get more minutes or is it going to be game by game?

USBL InsideHoops NBA [ Home Bulls trade Mutombo to Rockets NBA News / Sept 8, 2004 The Chicago Bulls today acquired 10-year veteran guard/forward Eric Piatkowski, guard/forward Adrian Griffin and guard Mike Wilks from the Houston Rockets in exchange for center Dikembe Mutombo. This trade is conditional to all four players passing their physicals. “Eric immediately provides our backcourt with some added size and his ability to knock down shots on the perimeter will be an asset for us and will be a nice complement to our inside game,” said Bulls Executive Vice President of Basketball Operations John Paxson. “As for Dikembe, had he remained with us, we were confident that he would have fit his role perfectly. He will do the same for the Rockets and we wish him well.” “Adrian and Mike are both quality people and players who will play hard and we are hoping they can fill a role for us this season,” Paxson added. “We obviously are crowded in the backcourt and we will work to resolve that issue.” Piatkowski, 6-6, joins the Bulls after one season in Houston where he played in 49 games and averaged 4.1 ppg and 1.5 rpg in 14.3 mpg. For his career, the 33-year-old swingman has appeared in 665 games and has averaged 8.2 ppg, 2.4 rpg and 1.1 apg in 20.1 mpg; he also has shot .436 from the field and .399 from long distance during his 10 years in the NBA. In 2001-02, he ranked third in the league in three-point field goal percentage, when he connected on .466 of his shots (111-238 3FG) from behind the arc. Piatkowski was originally drafted by Indiana in the first round (15th overall) of the 1994 NBA Draft out of Nebraska.

Na-Na-Na-Na, Hey, Hey, Hey, Goodbye Basketball's foul-out rule should be benched. By Dennis Hans Posted Thursday, June 14, 2001, at 8:30 PM PT On the eve of the NBA Finals, Philadelphia 76ers head coach Larry Brown said, "Dikembe staying in the game with Shaq, that's the key that everybody is focused on. It really depends on the referees and how they call the game. When I had Rik Smits against Shaquille, he fouled out in warm-ups." In this postseason, games have turned around when such seasoned pros as Arvydas Sabonis, Dale Davis, John Stockton, Ervin Johnson, Sam Cassell, and David Robinson—not to mention Shaquille O'Neal and Dikembe Mutombo—were forced to sit for a spell or the duration. None were roughhousing. All were aware of the importance of staying on the court. But if you play you're going to get whistled, and sometimes you're going to draw one too many fouls at a pivotal moment in a pivotal game. That's why the NBA's foul-out rule should be amended or abolished. Continue Article placeAd(2,'slate.homepage/slate')

In his speech, Mutombo quoted an African proverb, “When you take the elevator to the top, don’t forget to send it back down.” Although Mutombo has enjoyed a successful basketball career in the U.S., he has not forgotten about the suffering of his native Democratic Republic of the Congo. He will be performing the groundbreaking ceremony at a new hospital in the Congo’s capital city of Kinshasa in less than two weeks. The hospital is an undertaking of the Dikembe Mutombo Foundation, which he founded in 1997 with the goal of improving health and education in the Congo. “The health and the development of a country are closely linked to the health of its people,” Mutombo said. “Education is so important to good health.” The $14 million-dollar facility will be the country’s first hospital in almost 40 years. It will be named the Biamba Mutombo Hospital after Dikembe’s mother, who died three years ago of a supposed stroke. Her real cause of death will never be known — Mutombo said she received no medical attention because of the civil war raging in the Congo.

Welcome to Piedmont Communities Sixer Basketball Team Discussion Iverson has the answer: Sixers need another scorer The Sixers star said another offensive weapon will be pivotal to the team's success in the future. By TOM MOORE phillyBurbs.com PHILADELPHIA - After four years of trying to carry the Sixers offense, Allen Iverson is requesting some reinforcements. After shooting around briefly at yesterday's second day of free-agent camp, Iverson said he'd love to have another threat in a Sixers uniform. "We need to bring a couple guys in here to score the ball," Iverson said. "We haven't had another guy to score 30 points besides myself since [Jerry] Stackhouse left - that was like 41/2 years ago. It kind of lets you know we need a scorer." The Sixers have gone four seasons - a span of 304 games - without another Sixer scoring 30 points. The last time it happened was when Derrick Coleman had 30 on April 1, 1998 (Stackhouse was traded to the Pistons 31/2 months earlier, one week after scoring 32 points). Seldom-used reserve Vonteego Cummings' 28 points Dec. 8 at Memphis were the most scored by a player other than Iverson over the last four seasons. And Iverson has missed 47 games due to injury and suspension during that span, allowing others to assume more prominent offensive roles.
