    He works really hard and is really efficient.

    He is a rebounding machine.

    Getting him was one of the best trades for the Rockets last decade.

    Imagine the Spurs having this guy with Duncan, thank God!

    Go Rockets!!!

    We will bounce back.

    Scola is good but I do not think the best might be the best player on the team

    He plays defense like a fish out of water.

    Sadly we are 0-3 so he is just a "chucker" who does not win any games viewed by everyone else in the league

    Terrible terrible rotations, so many open threes from nuggets because of it

    The thing that sucks is he is owning me in fantasy right now and the Rockets are still losing...

    So frustrating. :(

    No defensive ability whatsoever and he needs to do shock therapy or something to get those fast stitch fibers to throw down dunks. I think most of the time the man is coasting too much.... Defend please...

    Scola has been really good on the offensive end. His post game is more well-rounded as he seems comfortable going to his left, and he has a nose for the loose caroms.

    Can he be a 20/10 guy for us this year?

    Going by what we've seen so far in the early season, yes. Assuming he's passed the ball when he's hot. He'll get the rebounds, regardless.

    If we keep the limit on Yao, I don't see why not. He'll get his even when Yao's in the game and when Yao's not in the game, there's not a better option in the low post.

    Considering he was the sole reason we were leading the nuggets in the second and kept on pasr with them in the 3rd, he is really valueable. We went away from him in the fourth and the Nuggets ran away with the game. coincidence?

    I've been saying since his rookie year, he has no defense at all.
