Now, there are some layers here. Mutombo played for the Rockets, so it could have been a shot at the Houston crowd. But Mutombo is also from The Republic of Congo, Ibaka's native country.
So, was this a taunt, was it honoring Mutombo, or is Ibaka just taking it for himself? Layers, man...the NBA is like a sweet, sweet onion.
