From a financial perspective, that performance on TNT justified resigning him.

The Wizards just got more media hype tonight than they had in the past 30 years, and it was all about a goat-like bearded Polish guy. I suspect to see him back in DC, let's hope he's realized he's strong enough to dunk over just about anyone in the league with momentum on a pick and roll.

That being said, he has actually been preaching just that to Wall and anyone who would listen all year.

Wow what a game from Gortat! At one point the announcers said he had more rebounds than the Pacers team.

He finally got his soft touch around the basket back. Was great to see. And he just dominated the boards. Dude looked like the White Olajuwon out there.

Loved Gortat's post game interview as well as his short segment on Inside the NBA.

Incredibly charismatic and smart fella.

He wants to kick in the Pacers' front door, eat all their food, drink all their beer, sit on their sofa and make a huge mess while ordering some PPV movies, then walk out, leaving their door open for stray cats and wolves.

You left out the obvious part about banging all their wives. You're mellowing with old age, Pine. ;-)
