could become another jerome james or diop. does nothing for 5 million
Just wondering if you guys think this guy can play? He seems to be awfully athletic for a big guy. Not another big stiff. Have only seem him play so little that I honestly don't know if he can play.

Everyone is Nostradamus when it comes to this guy.
Gortat's a solid role player. I don't think he's a starting Center but still one of the best backups.
More productive than the wunderkind Bynum, judging by history.
Diop 2.0
I don't get how you guys manage to overpay just about e very player on your roster
And you'd be taking this same stance if Morey had lured him to Houston? Bull .
LOL...what a moron. Houston would kill to have him. Mavs are gonna own you guys just like the Spurs
We would be happy to have him, just not for the money Dallas is investing. You guys got a good player though.
There is no validity in comparing him to Diop. He may not live up to his contract but that comparison is just weak.
He's better than Diop, but i think they need him coming off the bench. All the pressures on him starting next season if Dampier starts disappearing again.
You don't wanna know...
just kidding
The reason Morey didn't lure him to Houston is because we didn't offer him more than he's worth.
I wanted the Spurs to sign him.

I think he's a serviceable back up center. He'll make some low post shots, but he'll also miss some gimme's trying to do to much off the dribble.
I think he's gonna be a very good rebounder, shot blocker and give you some points without having plays drawn up for him. If he keeps playing hard he should easily earn that contract.
I do too. He's coming off essentially his rookie season. And he's got the work ethic, going from D-League to leapfrogging Foyle for the backup job. I don't see him as a contract year ho.
That's the only danger. People saying he's a backup are borderline re ed, considering the person he was backing up all this time.
Muhahahaha! The Sooker faced ya up & just busted yer ass to the rim.
Dale Ellis once backed up Mark Aguirre and Rolando Blackman. Gortat could start for a # of teams.
He's gonna get over payed.

gortat is good
im not on his nuts like the other spurs fans wanted him he will be a good role player with the mavs (if orlando dosent match)
but one think i noticed about him is that he stuggles with players that are more athletic that him,and gortat is pretty decent athlete for his size he moves pretty quick, but i still think dampier might be a better defensive player(one on one) at this moment than him just becuase dampier is much stronger and physical than gortat...gortat might improve on his defense if avery was there i dont know how much carlisle focuses on defense...he will be a lead leader blocker
gortat will become a 6 point/9 rebounds/3 blocked shots guy for the rest of his carreer might have a 10+ rebound season here and there
good pickup for the mavs if he signs, and he willl earn his pay
Comparing Gorat to Diop is a dumb comparison. I'd much rather have Gortat.
Gortat will be good for the Mavs. He can basically play the same exact role he played on the Magic. He doesn't have to worry about spacing or improving his jumper -- the two main question marks around him.
I don't see how he could fail unless he suddenly just stops trying or his basketball IQ is absurdly low.
