    Gonna miss Luis because he was all hustle and truly showed what it meant to be a Houston Rocket.
    "He look ok" will always be used on here and I enjoyed seeing him play in the red.
    I told myself I wouldnt cry:(

    I think this is the lowest that I've ever been cheering the rockets these past 5-6 years.

    There are some players you like, few others you love, Scola is one of the latter.

    This. So much this.

    We have no f'ing loyalty to players that give it their all for us. First Chuckwagon. Then this. Call me old-fashioned but the players that stuck with us and played their balls off when the team sucked should be given the benefit of the doubt.

    Luis was such a gem. Pure grit. We traded him for someone as soft as Charmin.

    I'm going to be on tilt for the rest of the night.

    I've loved watching him grow and improve, and quite drastically at that. NOH is getting one hell of a player!

    I love Scola. I don't care much about Martin, but losing Scola hurts.

    A true warrior. Over the years I have learned to love this guy.

    His work ethic is superb..his moves are special...best undersized power forward in the league in my opinion...

    WTF. I wish The Beast the best. I will miss Scola he was my favorite player on the team because of his never quit attitude. He will be missed.

    Completely agree, Scola really grew on me. It's always great to see a guy who can put up the numbers when necessary AND do the dirty work. I've never been much of a fan of the guys that have good scoring numbers but only negatively affect the game otherwise.

    It's like a piece of my heart was carved out. I wanted to see what McHale could've worked on him.
