If ariza is making 6mil scola deserves at least 7 or 8 mil. Like I said earlier trading landry jacked up scola's value.
b4 he went on this insane stretch lately i wouldve voted MLE-8mil but now that hes blowing up the stat sheet, i believe its driving his price tag more and more if nothin else this raises his stock alot more for other teams if we decided to move him for a big man (Bosh) this offseason
Our only saving grace is that he's a little older and restricted, which will make teams hesitant to sign him to an offer sheet. I'm guessing 7-9 million.
he'll command more than the MLE for sure. i think somewhere around $8-10 mil is appropriate for scola. the only thing going against him is his age. i hope we can resign him, unless we can get bosh.
I think Scola's new contract will depend on whether the rockets can make the playoffs. If the rockets can make the playoffs under Scola's leading, I think he will at least get 8-10 million, 10+ million is also possible. However, if the rockets cannot make the playoffs, Good stats in a lottery team wouldn't mean a lot. At most he would get MLE-8 million. I think the MLE is the most possible conract.
I don't think it matters what his contract is because he is probably getting traded. Morey already said there will be changes. They have Hill as a backup now. Rockets will make a run for Bosh this offseason. No doubt in my mind at all.
