    If the roster don´t have huge upgrades over the next season, which player do you expect to be the third scorer? I sincerely hope it is Scola because that will meant that he has took a good amount of high percentage shots, but i have the feeling that Alston might continue to improve and become a reliable scorer.

    So i would love Scola to be the third shot taker and scorer but i doubt what Adelman will command, it will be between him and Rafer.

    Thoughts?

    That's a good thread.

    I still hope we can sing somebody but it may be Scola or Rafer (if he stays)

    14 ppg luis scola in 08-09, thats not a improvement for him but not the team in my opinion if the rockets dont upgrade.

    Scola will benefit the most from not getting rookie calls on him. He'll go from rook to grizzled vet instantly, no intermediary time as a sophomore for him. If he doesn't get 12ppg next year it will be a disappointment. 15ppg is realistic.

    that guy can only do layups ...unless he starts to dunk he should only have the ball off turnovers or hustle plays he made...

    15ppg? he averaged close to that without yao... with yao, his numbers will drop.


    i think 12ppg is realistic. under 10 will be a disappointment.

    I think it's either Rafer, or someone who isn't on the roster right now.

    Would be Luis, but with Yao back and Landry earning more minutes, I don't think he'll eclipse 12ppg.

    Carl Landry. If he develops the ability to make plays off the dribble and develops a post-game, watch out.
