    I drank a shot for the big guy when he went down.

    He's been a real warrior and a real presence for this team for the past few years, and he's a true humanitarian. Very sad to see it end like this.

    Rockets will win for Dikembe.

    This is no question the WORST way possible for one to end a career, especially one as sparkling as Deke...

    Mutumbo went down fighting for the ball in a tight playoff game. You can't ask for a better way to go than that for a warrior like him.
