    Luis Scola recently retired.

    I really think the Rockets should hire him as a Coach, Luis teaching Post Up Moves everyday to Alperen Sengun can be really beneficial.

    Hopefully you're right, but it's presumptuous to say that now. Mobley has the skill set to be great, it will just come down to health and how bad he wants it.

    Memes aside, Barbara Turner might be the best thing to happen to Sengun.

    A translator who's also a basketball mind and can help Sengun assimilate real quick to America and the NBA. Can't ask for a better skillset than that.

    Crazy how he doesn’t speak any English yet seems to have the best understanding of playmaking and where he’s supposed to be. Really high basketball IQ, wonder how until he’s able to get real minutes with the big boy squad

    Stone really robbed the Presti bank once again and we got a steal in Christopher too.

    Scola that can pass and Scola that can dominate. Interesting combination here.

    Would love this, Scola has been the best Rocket with post moves since Hakeem
