"There has also been a foundation setup by Dikembe Mutombo for the prevention of posterization of African big men. Please send all donations there. Thanks."

The problem is he doesn't send any back. He's ALWAYS GETTIN' DUNKED ON. All...the...time. It would be one thing if it was 'Zo or Mutombo, because they sent plenty of folks back. Hell, anyone who did smash on 'em got sent back just as many times, if not more. Mbenga gets dunked on, just because. He gets no benefit of the doubt for me. He just needs to sit his rabbit-ass down.

L.M.A.O. uhm, yea. Everyone shouldn't dunk on you, especially when you're the center. You gotta figure something out. You're too damn tall and you can't be getting yammed on like every night is Thanksgiving.

I was kinda proud, being a Heel fan, for Ty's ILL facial (NH) that he served up Mbenga... After reading this article, it's kinda like finding out that bad chick you were feeling smashed the homies. Not so cool if everyone has had a turn.

I kind of appreciate that Mbenga doesn't back away. A lot of NBA defenders would try to stay out of the frame, but Mbenga at least makes the effort to block the shot even if he does make it onto the poster.
