Yeah seriously - Manute is still the leading career blocks-per-game record holder. Wasn't a great offensive player, but man, he was so goddamn tall and was impossible to shoot over. His son is a pretty decent player, too.

Bol was also a fantastic human being. Incredibly active politically and donated much of his money towards his poverty-stricken home country of Sudan. He was not perfect, but his charitable acts affected millions, and that should be commended.
