Marcin Gortat: Unhappy to Return
I’m sure his Orlando Magic teammates and coaches will love hearing this: “Gortat has said all along that no matter what happened this off-season — whether he went to Dallas or returned to Orlando — that he would be a ‘happy man.’ Still, he did have his heart set on going to the Mavericks because the Mavericks were going to give him the chance to...

The Vince Carter vs. Hedo Turkoglu Debate
As an Orlando Magic fan, I have decided to finally get into this extremely opinionated debate.
Ever since the trade went down this offseason, all I have heard from "other NBA Fans" has been, "Oh, Vince Carter is past his prime, he is a downgrade from Hedo Turkoglu."

Marcin Gortat, a restricted free agent in the 2009 off season, signed an offer sheet to be a Dallas Maverick for the coming season. Too bad that didn't dictate where he was going.
