This is Marcin Gortat. He is a Polish superstar and reserve center for my favorite NBA team, The Orlando Magicians.Gortat is all heart -- a hustle player who's energy, intensity and burning desire for victory far outweigh any natural skill or athleticism he may posses. Gortat is slowly becoming my go to Magic-man. It's too easy and cliche' to have Dwight or Turk as your guy. I need a player who can heat it up at a moments notice like a walking microwave off the bench.
Gortat's place in my heart was cemented after I saw the quote featured in the above picture. I can see him utter those words with sincerity in his eyes after finally getting in a game for the first time -- in the 62nd game of the season.
