    Why do I not hear anyone saying "Thank you Spurs" anymore?

    Everytime we see a Spurs fan, we should point at Scola and say thank you very much!

    And does anyone think we almost have our Big 4?

    Horse crap.

    If Yao wanted to rebound better he could.

    When he is motivated to rebound he gets a ton.....

    I think he knows Luis is going to vacuum them up and rests a bit.

    I disagree completely. Yao lacks the mobility, timing, and hand strength to be a truly great rebounder. He also doesn't have the instincts that the great rebounders have. Most of his rebounds are because of his size. I think ~10 rebounds/gm for Yao is as good as he can be.

    Scola gets half of his rebounds by stealing them from Yao.

    He is by far the only rocket that haven miss a game in the entire season if I am correct. I don't know what the rockets will do without him.

    Another double double! 15/15

    we should have tried to get Nocioni, he plays with the hustle of Scola and you know they play well together, Nocioni would have so many shots with the 2nd unit. oh well. :eek:

    Scola is what kept us in this game in the fourth quarter. Tearing up those boards and the hustle plays. I can bet any of you that if it wasn't for his spectacular play in the fourth, the game would have probably been an L.

    Here's to many years to come of Scola anchoring our 4 position

    Cheers.
