    Dikembe Mutombo said he received strong interest from the Celtics during the offseason, but Boston's cold weather was the main reason he didn't come.

    "It's too cold, man," said Mutombo, who gave 19 tickets last night to relatives on his wife's side. "I didn't talk to any GMs. They talked to [my agent] David Falk. A lot of teams tried to get me. It was tough for me to break myself from Yao Ming, T-Mac [Tracy McGrady], and the rest of the guys." -- The Boston Globe</div>

    Mutombo could had gotten a job as a starter in the league. Don't think he is after the money, contracts, playing time, or whatever, he seems content where he is.

    Don't think this shocks me much.

    would of been a nice addition, but you can't have it all. I'd rather another PG at this point anyway.

    Come on Dikembe. "It's cold?" It's cold, but it isn't THAT cold, he is is acting like they asked him to move to Antarctica or something.

    His real reason for not moving is his emotional connection with Yao and Mac.
