    He was a very solid rebounder on side of Yao Ming. He's not your Ben Wallace kind of guy, but with a main 7 footer controlling the paint, he's very good at getting into good rebound positions. He will do the same on the side of Asik.

    He's gonna abuse DMo tonight when he's posting up.

    Definitely my favorite Rocket of the last few years. Wish I could go to the game in Houston.

    I wish some how some way we could of kept Scola. Know his defense is not so good but we could of used his offense. Plus he plays with such hear and hunger. Delfino and Scola on same team just adds to even better chem.

    Yep, it will be a battle of skill vs speed.

    I will always remember Scola fondly for both his tremendous skill on the low post, his money 17 ft jumper and his great humility and toughness.

    But it is a game we want to win to keep our playoff hopes alive. I felt the same way when we played GSW - even though I really loved seeing Landry again, I wanted so bad to beat them.

    Was a big fan of his the first couple of years but over time got really sick and tired of his flopping and nonexistent defense.

    "It is big game for us"

    I don't regret any of the Rockets moves now, but I still love Scola. Class act.

    I wouldn't mind one bit if he goes Scola Beast Mode and defiles our defense, as long as we get the win of course.

    Because Gortat is out Scola played center last night so I will be hoping for a high octane offense, should be fun if they're not too tired.

    Delfino will guard him. Scola will be limited.
