Nation mourns as Gortat slips into funkdom 'Net reaction; Gortat "disappointed" about return to Magic J.E. Skeets - Ball Don't Lie - Yahoo Sports "The Magic surprised and disappointed Marcin Gortat(notes) when they matched the five-year, $34 million offer sheet he signed with Dallas on Monday. In fact, The Polish Hammer's agent Guy Zucker said the back-up center was "very disappointed" by the news. Here's what they're saying out in the ether about the odd situation " "The Gortat will have significant ramifications on the destination of Boston's Glen 'Big Baby' Davis, who according to his twitter page feels no longer valued by the Boston Celtics. Whether the signing of Gortat will up Boston's efforts to sign Davis remains to be seen. It seems only logical that with Gortat out of the mix, Dallas owner Mark Cuban will come knocking on Big Baby's doorstep, as any team that is looking to get past the Lakers will need size and a lot of it, not to mention the fact that each of the Eastern Conferences Big Three, Orlando, Cleveland, and Boston, have all gotten bigger."

Is Orlando that stupid?Ok Gortat is a good player but they don't need him so much to keep him for 7mln a year.Ok I understand Mavs when they don't have a good center,but Orlando has Dwight.

After a nice weekend with friends and family, topped off by a lovely dinner, Gortat is no longer pretending. He is now truly happy.
