Gortat has ended up being a great addition.

I liked him back in his Orlando days and hoped we could get him before he went to PHX

He had blended in really well with the team. Specially given he was a last second addition.

He has done so much for Walls game teaching him PnR skill he learned with Nash.

The double double are great. He is a willing do be a front court partner and does what is needed. He will rebounds and defensd while Nene focuses on boxing out, defending and scoring.

He is a professional. He has a great personality/character.

Gortat has helped define what it is to be a Wizard. Polish Hammer/Polish Machine. HE IS A WASHINGTON WIZARD AND SHOULD REMAIN ONE

They will resign him. I have little doubt in that. He is a part of this team and its turnaround. A core part. I think he will want to stay. I think that would also be true of Trevor A.

Well, in fairness, we took Mike Pence off their hands. Taking back Mahinmi is the least they can do.

He must have gotten Nene to pumped up that one game.

Butler is lucky he didn't grab a sword and chop his head off.

Against the Bulls he shot 39% from the field, 60% from the line. :nonono:

when he gets the ball inside he seems more concerned with going up quickly as opposed to going up strong.

Gortat has definitely grown on me. He has solidified himself as a true Bullet.
