    He doesn't have problems against longer athletic players, he has problems guarding players that shoot the 3 ball.

    On the low post he guards them about as well as they guard him.

    You said his ceiling was AC Greene.....wrong then...wrong now.

    So, since Luis is better, he should be considered an all star too, huh?

    5 game winning streak with so many of their players injured?

    When you compare that to some of our most recent losses.

    F*** T-Mac (with Orlando), No Rockets fans care about those ballooned stats with a losing team.

    While someone may want to asterisk Scola's achievement because after all it was agains the 2009-10 Nets, one should remember that no other star - not even Lebron - accomplished this feat.

    Yeah, I almost didn't re-post it ... it was 13 years ago so throw in (even more) immaturity + rabid fandom + serious frustration from losing that game and there you go.

    Someone posted a link to it, but it's Dominique Wilkins (my all-time favorite non-Rocket) hitting 19-22 from the field. Absolutely sick.

    Dominique also, incidentally, holds the record for most free throws made in a game without a miss: 23-23.

    The man was a freak of nature!

    In addition to being a prolific scorer, he was his generation's greatest dunker (yes, ahead of Jordan), possibly the greatest slam dunker of all time.
