Locker room discord?

[LyricalRico]

Watch the video of him saying it at 0:25, he was in a good mood and clearly meant it in a complimentary way:

He gave credit to Nene first before even talking about himself.

Pretty stupid thread, tbh

Hey, it's never to early to start looking for ways a DC team might implode. LOL

Fair enough, lol.. not a Skins fan, but hopefully whatever the hell's going on in their locker room ( ) doesn't rub off on the Wiz

I'll be worried when Gortat brings two polish WWI pistols into the locker room with a note for Nene saying "choose one".

Or take both of them. I already have mine.

See the second graph below:

“The Brazilian guy was working for me, that’s what was working for me. I just continued to play to my strengths. I think I was struggling during preseason and just changed … I came back to my routine from last year. And I kind of starting coming back to playing my basketball, and I just wait for the game to come to me. I’m not trying to force anything, I’m not trying to break the system.

“You guys see the great part with me and Nene working on the court. But Nene in the locker room, but me and him eye and eye, it’s a different story. It’s a challenge for me to follow this guy every time and do what he asks me to do. But end of the day, he’s a force. He’s an offensive force. He brings so much attention offensively, that people focus on him and that’s helping a lot of things for me. He was just great. The first half I was rolling and he was in the second half.”

Cause for concern? Typical co-workers not always seeing eye to eye? Somewhere in the middle?

Or perhaps it was just an awkwardly worded phrase due to English being his second language. Those guys generally have nothing but praise for each other so it seems rather surprising that there is animosity in their personal relationship.

Maybe he just means that Nene has been challenging Gortat to really step up his game and be the best that he can be, and that's hard work. I dunno.

Yeah. I heard the interview on monumental sports.

It was a little awkward in how he said it. Kind of got my attention then I just figured it was Gortat stumbling for how to work it well.



The question from the reporter was, the first 5-6 shots, what was working for you.
Gortat: The Brazial guy is what was working for me.

Its was all a compliment to Nene.

The second part of that answer is to another questions about how well he and Nene scored 16 of 20 pts. How does that evolved and how is it progressing.

Gortat is just saying, hey, you don't see the hard work that goes into this behind closed doors. Sounds like Nene is pushing him to do a lot. I can see Nene doing that. Its not a bad thing. But Gortat is complimenting Nene big time calling him a force.

Edit.. Ok, I see the video was already posted and so was my tank joke. Carry one. Nothing to see here.

Awesome.

But I think Gortat would just roll up in his tank.

I remember some bit on CSN last year where they interviewed Nene and Gortat and the two seemed quite fond of each other. Who knows though, could just be placating to the cameras.

But really, as long as they're producing on the court, who cares? You don't have to be BFF with everyone you work with. There are people at my work I can barely stand but we still work well together.

**** this ****

reeeeaching for real, I believe this was started just for fun. Nene and the Hammer are besties, and it's hard to decipher exactly what Gortat was saying...we all know what he meant. Nene demands a lot, it's hard for him to deliver all that is asked, but when they are both playing well....it's great.

Right after the trade in October 2013. Nene went to Dulles to pickup Gortat.

was scared for a second that the cancerous washington media had spread from just the redskins into the wizards lockerroom for a second

So you don't think Gortat was saying that Colt McCoy should start over Nene?

[krii]

As Polish I`m pretty sure it was just misunderstanding. I do believe that it was just a question of how Nene is trying to push Gortat to do his best.
