Lol, ok don't get butt-hurt 'cause your favorite player Scola plays no defense and chokes constantly.
I agree, a taller body needed to be in the paint. But you were complaining about his scoring or lack there of. The guy was gased. Patterson should have been in there but stuborn Adelman didn't sub when he should have agian.
Seriously?? U wanna start Paterson after only 12 games in the NBA!? What has paterson proved other than he he can make a wide open jumper from time to time!!? He's got potential but that's all it is right now..... POTENTIAL!! I swear half the people on this board don't know crap about the game of basketball!! Just go away!!
You could argue that everyone on the floor in overtime was gased, but West still decided to dominate. Scola? Not so much.
Scola should not be traded. RA should trust his bench and give the bench a chance to rest the starters. RA should have put the bench at the start of the fourth with a double digit lead going into the fourth.
Good point. But when you give a beating you don't feel it as much as the one taking the beating...and West is very physical. Scola, not so much. :grin:
I am all for trading Scola but not for the same reason as the OP. Scola helps us win and I would rather lose right now while grooming his successor. Plus with Scola gone it will make more sense to resign Landry. I like the PF rotation of landry Patterson and Hayes. I would trade Scola for one of the Nets better 1st round picks.
No, changes need to happen sooner or later... Obviously! But scola scored 31 against OKC and I didn't see any threads about trading him.... U people have this "only as good as your last game" mindset! U can't just write off a player after one bad game and when u do it shows how little u know about basketball! It's time to realize something... We are not a good team! One trade (unless it's for a superstar, which isn't going to happen) will not fix this team!
If we had a real defensive big man to take some of the pressure off of Scola, I'd be happy to keep him. I really hadn't considered moving him until recently, but I'm open to it. He reminds me of a Vlade. He's no superstar, but he can be a quality player (maybe off the bench as he gets older) into his mid/late 30's. I'm just so tired of these ugly losses, and I want the Rox to make a move, but I'm just not sold on many of the current options/rumors being discussed.
Haha ... they must have kicked you and AB off the team plane if your partying with him tonight. Seriously I don't believe T-Will would be stupid enough to make such an arrogant comment when he hasn't shown anything but potential so far.
