Washington Wizards center Marcin Gortat had himself a block party in the first quarter, blocking three shots within a minute's span on Wednesday's Game 2 against the Atlanta Hawks.

Gortat has been a mean presence near the rim for the Wizards all season long and his shot-blocking ways have been evident throughout the series, turning away six shots in the first two games of the series.
