Re: Can Mutombo surpass Hakeem's Blocks?

I haven't heard he was retiring.

I thought he would play 5 more years or so.

It's pretty much impossible, but yes he can.

His career average is just above 3.1 I think, and he had has several 4+ BPG seasons under his belt.

Ehh, skill > Longevity so Hakeem still would be the better blocker in my opinion.

Re: Can Mutombo surpass Hakeem's Blocks?

Just saying, Smith's combination of youth and his current block rate gives him a rare chance to break that record (Deke won't do it). Smith isn't really the shotblocker Hakeem was, but I don't think we've necessarily seen the best he has to offer in that department, either.

He can. If he is going to play forever, or like half more decade.
