A guy is a ballhog if he gets alot of rebounds? Some things definitely don't translate.Quote:
Nikola Vujkic, 6'11", top euro CENTER (not PF) rebound about the same as Scola, and it's rare to find more than 7 rpg in TOP euro teams (you can find some, but playing in weaker teams, where there are ballhogs who get better stats).
Ok, I'll ask the Euro posters then since they know so much more than I do.
What do you think Scola would average on the Spurs playing 20-25 minutes a game?
Is that when his buyout was reported by the Spurs and the SA media as $14 bajillion dollars? No thanks, try again.Quote:

What those stats don't measure are the hustle plays and intangibles that players like Manu and Nocioni are known for. Scola is the same type of Argentine player - hardnosed, gritty, energetic, relentless and a great team player.
Frankly, I believe the Spurs still see the possibility of bringing Scola next year - when his buyout is much less prohibitive.
I doubt the spurs tried to deal Scolas right this year before the trade deadline.Quote:

Now considering those numbers and adding his experince(Olympics,world championships,Euroleague)you can have a very decent playoffs player,who wont be scared of shooting the ball down the strech on a playoff game 6 or 7.
Like I said before,he wont be the next Duncan,or KG,but you cant have a player like Duncan or KG,or J.Oneil for only $ 3.5 M p/year.
In Spurs he won't have great stats, having Tim ahead him.Quote:

Leave Scola were he is or trade his rights. Either way, i'm w/ the Dumper!
so scola's agent was lying too?Quote:
