It's like we're going to flip a coin, and someone thinks it coming up heads, and you beat your head on the desk over and over again because you just KNOW that it's coming up tails.

Well, if you do know that, then it makes sense to do so. But you don't. As you have now come around to admitting.

No it's distinction between what might happen and the current situation. The current situation is that Damp is an average starting NBA center with a lot of skins on the wall (relatively speaking).

The current situation is that Gortat is basically a guy coming off his rookie season and has played more than half an NBA game only a handful of times.

So the idea that Gortat is, as of July 3rd, 2009, a better starting center than Dampier is ridiculous (in my opinion).

What I will concede is that on July 3rd of 2010, Gortat may have proven himself capable of being a starting center on a playoff caliber team, and established himself as a better option for the Mavericks.

That is NOTHING like claiming you know what the outcome of a coin flip is. Your analogy there was terrible.
