    Very much appreciated, what a year for him! Too bad he got overlooked in ROY. Next year he will be a force, I' waiting to see him getting 15/9 in 2008-2009.

    Have a nice summer y'all!

    Scola will be a whole lot better next year. This guy was great and I can't wait to see what kind of team will be here next season.

    Scola is going to great starting next to Yao. We are going to have a crazy front court next season.

    I think he is awesome, now he needs to work on his left hand to get even better.

    If you just replaced Juwan Howard last year with Scola, we would've killed the Jazz. Yao+Scola (and also Landry) is the best C-PF duo in the league.

    Scola is a junkyard dog with skills. Next year he'll only get better as he adjusts to the speed/officiating of the NBA. I really look forward to a solid 15/8 from him.

    Start Scola at the 4, sub landry for him about 7 minutes into the first , then bring him back early 2nd q to play center and get some post isos on offense. Scola is a skilled enough post scorer to anchor our 2nd team o. I'd like to see it.

    Muchas gracias por todo Scola.

    Can't wait to see Scola and Yao together next year.

    I am sorry but that's not really saying much if you look at Juwan's production against the Jazz last year.

    Scola has been great. He was thrown into the lion's den in his first year. He had to learn everything on the fly and he has been getting better. Next year, with a full summer workout and more experience under his belt, I expect even better things from him, specifically improving on his finishes.

    Also, please, less flops. :)

    ...and going right at defenders instead of spinning away when they intend to foul you.

    ...and dunk for once, instead of trying to lay everything off the glass.

    Scola fue un placer verte jugar.

    I had a blast watching you grow as a NBA player as the season went on. Thank you for giving it 110% every time down the court.

    14-9 against the Jazz....Luis played a very strong series, he could have shot a little better, but so could just about everyone else.

    Luis is our answer as starting PF for the next 5+ years......

    Now we need to work on a better more efficient PG and athletic wings....

    exactly. he played great tonight. although i was frustrated with his missed layups, but his effort and heart were always there. he finished better as the series went on -> which proves that he'll get even better next yr.

    hopefully we'll draw more plays for him next yr. he can avg 15 and 7-8 easily in this offense.

    The guy is great. Perfect compliment to Yao along with Landry. Really was a key piece in keeping this team afloat...
