I don't get the "Get Gortat?" stuff that was going around, was it more of a "James White!" joke? Or what?

He is better big men than Bonner, Oberto and Thomas. Good court efficency.
If cheap, I would go after him. Not saying it because he is my compatriot.
He is a restricted free agent next year. I wonder what it would take to pry him away from the Magic. Very efficient player, but I think the Spurs will look elsewhere.
GMAFB
He is not better than Kurt Thomas.
Kurt is too slow and old. He did nothing in playoffs.
Will see how Gortat play against Dalembert, Ratliff and Speights
Yeah too old and slow.
Thats why when Duncan was out he was averaging double doubles.
Gtfo.
Thomas was over-matched in the Dallas series athletically. Gortat may have been more effective, but who knows. I still like what Thomas did on the season, but Gortat would be a good pick-up in the frontcourt.
Do you really have to put gtfo or GMAFB in your responses? It's just his opinion, you don't have to be an ass about it.
Have you watched that series? Cuz the games I watched, I didn't try to follow how Gortat did, only their starters, like Dwight, Rashard, Hedo and the others.
With Howard out next game, Gortat has an opportunity to raise his stock and receive some offers.
True, that tonight? And he is unrestricted, correct?
ESPN lists him as restricted. Magic have over $70 million in contracts listed already next year, and Hedo might opt out of his contract in search of more money. Gortat could be expendable.
I heard that he is UFA this summer and waiting for offers. He wants to play so resign with Magic is doubtful. In Spurs he can play next to best foward in the game and in s5. That is very good option. If only Spurs want him.
He and SVG dislike each other. He has also said that he wants to start for whoever he signs with, and has said that he would consider going to Europe if the offer is right.
I think that Europe thing is only to get higher offer. He always dreams of NBA, and I don`t think he would leave that to play in Greece or Russia.
So far 4 min 3 rbs. Better then Bonner in 30 min
Whats his offensive game?
Garbage? Or does he have a decent shot here and there.
Do Spurs need offensive minded big men ? No
Spurs need rebounding and defending big men, to help Timmy fight on the boards. Gortat is ideal for it. In 20 min of play he could put aroung 8 ppg, which is good. What do you expect from him ??
I expect not another Rasho.
The big man next to Duncan doesn't have to be Tony Parker offensively, but he has to have some sort of a clue, especially when Duncan sits out the second night of back to backs and stuff like that.
Hmm, kinda sorta sounds like Francisco Elson
Hope he doesn't have equitable BB IQ
Was just about to ask that.
Yeah, Elson always seemed a tad "off" to me.
Hmm, so hes got a better bball IQ than Elson.
Would you say if they signed him Pop would let him play, ala, his IQ isn't so bad that he needs to be yanked?
He has looked decent in tonight's game. He is deceptively quick and moves well on defense. I agree with Mal that if he plays well on defense and rebounds then he would be ideal next to Duncan as a starting C. I wouldn't mind using part of the MLE on him.
Hes european so he passes that test with Pop.
