    I have always said and still believe that if Scola was to put a good solid jumper in his game he could be as good as Dirk if not better !!

    I admit, I didn't expect Scola to be as good as he was. But I think it's better to be a bit cautious than to be all 'OMG!!! Vassilly will be better than Chris Paul!!!' like it was before Spanoulis came over.

    Ya know....

    With their lineup of Manu Ginobili, Carolos Delfino, Fabricio Oberto, Adres Nocioni and Luis Scola...

    ... that's a pretty darn good lineup right there.

    This I also believe that Scola was just getting the feel of what the NBA is all about and this season will a better year for Luis. This guy has been a blessing to the team.

    Kevin Garnett averaged 10.4ppg n 6.3rpg in his rookie season. Scola averaging similarly is pretty good too me.

    scola has the ability to score 15 pts. he could be the 3rd scorer IF we give him more post up touches. as yao gets less minues next yr, hopefully scola can take over the post up scoring load and score around 15-16 per game.
