Warning Spoiler Are you ****ing r****ded?! Seriously stop doing whatever drugs you are on because it's making you delirious. I mean really?! ****ing Juwan Howard? You are saying Scola has turned into Juwan ****ing Howard??? GTFO outta here with that bull****. You know, I come on clutchfans this afternoon trying to find some decent threads... Then I get to this. You can't be ****ing serious. Every team in this league would LOVE to have Scola and he would probably start on most teams. Get the **** out of here with that idiotic pointless bull****!
Scola might be like Juwaun Howard in his prime. Howard was an all star and all nba player at one point you know. The problem with Howard was he got the first 100 million dollar contract and never played at an all star level again after doing so. Scola is a much better scorer than Howard has been for a long time. Certainly he isn't "untouchable", but I don't think he is the weak point of the team either except when McHale decides to play him at center as the tallest player on the floor against 7 footers.
When, and only when, Luis Scola boosts a pair of sunglasses will he truly have become the Juwon Howard.
You've turned into a mouth-breathing imbecile. You are the Brian Cook of posters. Just keep guarding the water cooler and leave starting threads to the professionals. Kthxbye!
Come on man, don't be so harsh. That's not right. You are insulting Brian Cook. We all know Dei is an idiot.
What is this BS that everyone is saying that Scola is not consistent, especially on offense.. Are you f**king kidding me? Scola brings it on the offensive end, night in, night out. And his defense is mediocre, night in and night out, except for some rare days. Not bashing him, but just saying, Scola is CONSISTENT.
You have to recognize that Scola and Juwan, at least, when he played here, are similar players. They're unathletic. They get most of their scores from the mid-range J. They've got limited lift. They don't box-out and rebound particularly well. Their defenses are bad. The only thing Scola has over Juwan is his face-up game, which is pretty good but limited by height match-ups. When it's not going, he's practically Juwan Howard.
No they aren't similar players, Scola is one of the most crafty low post players in the game, and he shoots better than Howard from mid range. I don't see any similarities other than they both have no hops. Comparing them is like comparing Lowry to Rafer Alston
I remember Howard having a wicked mid range game. Scola is similar to Howard in his prime, borderline all star. But if you are referring to Rockets era Howard that is idiotic...how short is your memory.
And like I said, when that's not going, which happens more often than not, he's Juwan Howard. Care to comment on how different they are when it comes to rebounding, defense and giving picks?
Scola is at his best playing alongside an offensive and defensive presence. He misses Yao Ming more than anyone else on the team.
