    The Rockets must know that there are teams with cap space that will put in a bid if he is amnestied now, but won't be able to if they wait any longer.

    I love Scola and it brings a tear to my rye that he no longer will be a Rocket :-(. I know this is for the better.

    Help me out here is there any possible way Morey would do this drastic move if he wasn't at least 98% sure the Howard deal was going through?

    He must have some kind of verbal agreement with the Magic GM. It would be a classless sh***y move and nobody would ever work with Hennigan again if Hennigan said "OK amnesty Scola so you can absorb the contract, then we have a deal" then went back on it, right?

    Hard for me to believe its anything other than the Dwight deal; otherwise, why do this now?

    Oh no, sad to see us let go our best PF out of the 2131351120. I really wish we kept him and have a frontcourt of Howard/Scola. Oh well. Best of luck to Luis wherever he goes.

    A lot of teams will want his services, and I'm curious to see which team he chooses.

    If we really wanted to, I'm sure we could have traded scola later in the offseason. Someone would have given up a second for him. This has to be dwight. Right? Right?

    I hope he signs with an eastern conference team that's not the Raptors. Then again, looks like we won't be using t hat pick anyway.
