This would be alright... if Dallas had gotten Artest or some other premiere player also.
But that's not happening and sorry, Gortat has done nothing and this is not the piece to turn the Mavs into contenders... and it doesn't look like Cuban has any interest in getting one of those players.
Fail.
Honestly I'd rather have Bass than Gortat, since it seems like a choice between the two.
The mavs dont' really gain much by losing Bass and gaining this guy. At best it's treading water.
