Those links are 4 days old. , that's half of the waiting period since he said those things.
I believe everything I read on the Internet.
Except this. They can get Ratliff to be just as servicable and cheaper.

The Magic will match and then trade him to the Rockets.
Despite your stupidity Gortat is actually overrated and far below MLE worth, I think it would be a good news if the Magic took him back. Our full MLE would be used more wisely on some other players like Felton.
How? He can't even be moved for 90 days if they match. Besides, that still doesn't let the Magic off the hook for the tax - the point of contention in re-signing Gortat in the first place. That wouldn't make sense on their end.
So you'd be happy in keeping Dampier for another season and adding something they don't need in another PG when Kidd, Barea and Robo are all in line already?
that chick is hot, but who's the blonde?
Gortat can't be moved until December 15th if the Magic match. I honestly don't know what Otis Smith is going to do, but if I had to bet, they won't match. Nothing would surprise me though.
What is this thread about?
What sense does it make for the Magic to match? Smith is trying to put a team together, not keep a fan favorite around. Financially, it's not a smart move for the Magic. They have other options they can pursue. If the Mavs had offered a 3-year deal, I could see the Magic matching. But for 5 AND the tax on top of it, I don't see it.
I do love, though, all the Spurs and Rockets fans now clamoring to trade their bull for a guy most thought was overrated days earlier.
I can see Orlando matching. I understand Smith doesn't want to lose a big with potential like that for nothing. It obviously doesn't make sense to keep him chained to the bench when you have Howard in front of him. I just wonder if he realizes that the Marion trade could've been done w/o Orlando's participation and the Mavs netted them a trade exception. Plus, I don't think it's any coincidence that Bass went to Orlando and Cuban elected not to offer him more money and make it worth his while financially to stay in Dallas. A TE and Bass for Gortat is a heck of an exchange. I just hope Smith doesn't get greedy and matches. I'd say 70-80% chance Gortat becomes a Mav.
Why would Orlando want to give up Gortat for nothing? They probably can play Gortat as backup power forward as well. Bass will probably disappoint and than Gortat will get some minutes there or move Howard to PF.
No way this guy is really a Mavs fan.
He's like the polar opposite of SpursDynasty
Yes I am. Why would I fake being a mavs fan? I'm just a realist. I never cared for Bass's game as it is so one-dimensional. He is not starting material.

They didn't sign Bass to be a starter anyway.
PG-Alston
SG-Lee
SF-Carter
PF-Lewis
C-Howard
And to say that they re-sign somebody because they think a free agent they just signed will "probably disappoint" doesn't make much sense.
Lee is gone son
Lee got traded in the Carter deal im pretty sure,and i think they are going to start VC at the 2 and let Lewis play his natural pos. at the 3
Alston is gone too
happens to the best of us sons
And even if Alston wasn't gone,why would they start him over Nelson lol
Alston and Lee are gone. That is why they need Gortat. To save face for an ugly offseason. Less guards equal less time for smallball.
Magic don't have a huge advantage over Cavs without twp 6'10 players who can shoot lights out.
