    The Rockets need 5 Scola's on the court at the same time. That would be the winning cure.

    The RAs motion ofense relies on moving off the ball all the time, as Luis always does, and besides all the intangibles he brings to the floor every game he seems to be a perfect fit for this kind of game.

    I only want him to improve on the defensive end, but he's doing a lot on attack and he'll improve even more, besides he plays for 48 minutes every night. I really love what he's doing, and i want to thank the spurs FO for giving this gift to us.

    sure he shot 5/13 but he found a way to contribute and that is what's so great about Scola.

    Had Scola got more minutes in the 4th he would have easily got 20 rebounds tonight. He's really turning into one of the better PFs in the league.

    Scola "steals" a lot of Yao's rebounds.

    At least Scola stealing, much better than the Bulls stealing our rebounds.

    He is such an amazing contributor to our team.

    "Steals"? They weren't Yao's rebounds to begin with unless he rebounded them....which he didn't.

    yao seriously can't rebound for his life....no disrespect for yao, he is an amazing scorer, but due to his short arms, soft hands, lack of quickness and leaping ability, he is just not a good rebounder.

    He is the best among players in his size. It's hard to respond to the falling ball when you are taller than 220.
