Gortat receives offer from Mavs (Not Vera Nizze )


Sorry I had to stick that in there. Anyways, Marcin Gortat has received an offer from the Mavericks. Of course, the Magic have a right to match the offer, but considering that he was around our 3rd or 4th option, if not higher, I think that's a problem. We're eventually going to run out of free agents to sign, specially if we don't make offers to any of them. Oberto is being lured by the Rockets, Gortat by the Mavs, and Lord knows the Celtic's big 3 probably can see what Rasheed had for dinner yesterday. I also don't think the Pistons want to let Dice, go, but I guess the front office is using him as a safety option for now. I know that we were one of the first teams to upgrade their roster, which is why it feels like we haven't done much compared to the others, but considering much the contenders are tying to get better, I feel like we better do something before it's too late. However, this is also why I don't work for the front office (yeah right, the only reason?). Those guys are calm, know when to strike, and won't do anything just to do something. I have faith in you R.C.  find the last piece of the puzzle!

according to ESPN (but how reliable are they)

The Spurs are more interested in Gortat then Sheed. Can’t find the video of it. If i do I’ll give you guys the link.

If so, we failed miserably. Gortat has verbally agreed with the Mavs (80% of the time that ends up on a contract)

So by those measurements, what does that make, Gortat compared to Sheed?

Gortat = Rasho 1.5

If a = c and b = c then a = b.

Don’t confuse them with real math, LD. They’re not engineers. :)

It’s okay, LatinD, I’m not exactly a real engineer yet, but I recently got my B.S.M.E. so I give you permission to confuse me. And if you look at the above comments, you’ll see that
Gortat = Rasho 1.5 was one of the givens, and I followed the transitive property correctly.
I merely asked the question of what Gortat was compared to Sheed because it seemed like the opportune time to confuse some people and make them think a bit harder. However, Chilai might have been acting sarcastic and I didn’t pick up on that before, which is why I answered his question. Perhaps I should work on picking up on sarcasm on written text.

Please don’t take me seriously. I’d noticed your comment, but just couldn’t let the opportunity to write an equation pass.

Sarcasm in text is difficult… Which is why I recommend my wonderful no-nose smiley. Like this. :)

So we’ve picked up another engineer. But a mechanical, not a civil. I’ll try not to hold that against you, o. ;)

Granted rasho was serviceble…..i think sheed or mcdyess would be better in the short term than Gorty
