  Basketball newbie here, but why is Darko considered the bad guy here?  Even the announcers point out that Mutombo's famous for his elbows & rough play.  Mutombo's never been cited as a choir boy.

    Mutombo's long history of humanitarian aid and WWTSM t-shirts help to offset the teeth his elbows have knocked out.  Plus, he's probably older than Julio Franco at this point ... Darko was picking a fight with a senior citizen.

    Also because Darko is basically a joke in the NBA after drafting so high (2nd overrall i think?) and really not doing anything at all.

  Redsauce, this is part of it:

  Darko unleashes this ridiculous stream of Serbian language, and the US sports world spends the next several days trying to figure out what in the world he said. I think the final verdict was a death threat against the referees and their daughters.

    Yikes...consider me educated.  I'm not a big Mutombo fan, but damn...Darko's a maniac.

  Mutombo is no choir boy, to be sure, but at least he's accomplished a thing or two in his long career.

Who Wants to Sock Mutombo? Darko Does
Published 3/1/2008 by Tom Ziller at FanHouse
Filed under: Rockets, Grizzlies, NBA Videos, NBA Last Night, HoustonFrom Odenized via BallHype is this nerve-wracking showdown between universally beloved Dikembe Mutombo and the unanimously reviled Darko Milicic. At Watson pointed out over at BallHype, these two have a bit of a finger-wagging history. The backstory is after the jump. Okay, I lied. The backstory is just another video, from roughly 2005. The Human Victory Cigar swats away shots ...

Warum ausgerechnet gegen Mutombo, den ältesten Spieler der Liga! Lächerlich. Das Spiel ging übrigens mit 21 Punkten Vorsprung an die Rockets - Milicic mit 2 Punkten, Mutombo mit 4. [via BallHype ]

Darko Milicic strikes again
Published 3/3/2008 by Tobias at Ball in Europe
Darko Milicic strikes again Maybe Darko Milicic’s famous interview after the Eurobasket 2007 game scared the four Efes Pilsen players away - we don’t know. Maybe they thought everybody freaks out like Darko Milicic! Guess what - Darko kind of did it again . We haven’t heard anything of Darko lately. He is averaging 6.6 points and 6 rebounds per game - and now went head to head with Dikembe Mutombo (just in case you don’t follow the NBA that closely, yes this guy is still playing). Comments
