I find it great that the people who were ragging on "recovering from knee surgery" Scola earlier in the season have been rather quiet lately. I could call out some names but I'm classier than that.
but he is 10000000 years old. he lost his 50 inch vertical. now he is only the first one to fast break because of default and he is only the first one to lose ball because he can't jump. regards, balding jealous scola hater.
It was incredible how people could not understand that recovering from such surgery was not easy. A healthy Scola is a very different beast that the one we saw at the begining of the season, he outplayed Gasoft badly tonight.
Forgot to add, on both sides of the court, he defended him pretty well, and stole him the balls twice in a very funny way :grin:
Scola was clearly the mvp of the game, not only top scorer, but +23 with him on court. He nailed Gasoft badly, including stealing him the ball twice and scoring on him.
PPat is the truth, bro. Post game is solid, sweeeet jumper, mad springs, defense, hustle, can rebound with the best of them. Iso Pat all day, bro he could have done the same thing Luis "Methuselah" Scola was doing there in the crunch. where you even watching the game?
Scola played good but remember Scola's problem has rarely been offense. His problem is defense late in games and rebounding late in games. He has to play his heart out in the first defense and then doesn't secure the rebound aafter a stop. That is why we lost so many games down the stretch. Camby changes all of that and makes it possible for Scola to do what he does best. Give Scola credit but make sure you give some to Camby too. That's the real difference. I am officially in the screw the draft pick let's make the playoffs group. And I wasn't sure before but I think this team might have a shot at surprising in the playoffs.e Martin is a better scorer than Bud and Lowry is vastly better than Boykins. If those guys can get in 1/2 dozen games in before the playoffs we should ready to beat anyone. It won't be easy but I no longer believe it is impossible.
Scola is beasting since trade deadline expired, he's really hustling again. So glad indeed the trade didn't go through, Scola was much better than Pau and I like him in the playoffs late in a game. We tried to finish games with Patterson but I rather have Luis.
