    as if 7footers who just block shots come undrafted.....that actually would benefit him... not getting drafted and having a chip on his shoulder, something to prove

    Unlike others players in this roster (starters and bench), you'll see him very pissed off when the team is defeated, even today, with 30 points scored by him, he was not happy at all, while you could see players LOLing at the bench.

    I bet him and Jamison made a deal before the game to not guard each other.

    Or they both just suck at defense.

    Yeah Scola was fuming while the Cavs were shooting free throws and you could see Flynn and Morris were on the bench chillin' and laughing behind him. There's no competitive fire with a lot of these guys. The 09' Rockets had it. I'd say that Scola, Lowry, Dragic and Dalembert (when he decides to show up) are the only players with that kind of competitive drive on the team. Lee is pretty good, but you see him always smiling and joking on the court with players he knows on the opposing team.

    Luis should slap Martin upside his goofy head.

    One thing I noticed is that Scola's "scoop" moves seem to be back. For most of the season, I don't recall hearing much of the Bill/Matt "Ice Cream Man" calls. I heard that teams thought maybe Scola's knee injuries from last April was still bothering him, maybe he's finally getting over it.

    You gotta love scola's work ethic. It will be sad day for all rockets fans when he gets traded. When martin leaves...... :grin:
