    Him and Brad were pretty much on E, one reason why Brads shots were so flat and why Scola kept getting to Milsap late off the pick and roll

    That and he's flat footed with little lateral quickness.

    Guys,
    don't overreact, he is one of our best, if not the best player this season. He had one really bad quarter and overtime, but he was very good three other quarters. He delivers each and every game and even he is not best defensively, his offensive impact outlasts defensive defficiencies.

    Plus, if you consider, that he played 3rd, 4th quarter and overtime, not being changed at any time (at least I do not remember him to have been changed), on the 2nd night of back to back, you kind of start to understand why he might have been out of gas towards the end...

    And you start to wonder about RA coaching abilities, Scola is 30+ and not very athletic, there is no way he should have played that many minuets in the second game of a back to back against a milsap and jefferson,

    It is certainly not one bad quarter.

    Scola is one of the worst defensive players in the league on a consistant basis.
