Okay.......??? Well hi anthony Johnson. (WTF?)
now will you please explain to us how Luis Scola sucks.
Scola played well. He was playing hard the entire time he was out there. He took advantage of the fact the US was playing small forwards on him most of the game. He definitely played well.

anthony johnson once scored 50 in a playoff game, but he still sucks
Again, will you please explain to us how Luis Scola sucks.....this thread isn't about Anthony Johnson. Who gives a rats ass if he scored 50 points.
Luis Scola as a rookie in the NBA averaged 14 and 9 against Boozer in the playoffs (so it's not just small forwards that he can do this to) and already has a gold medal, this game isn't even the highlight of his career.
this isn't even his best game in this years Olympics...he all over Kirilenko for 37 points and made him look like a D league player.
Scola can flat out ball.......he's a machine.
At the end of the game, Kobe walked up to Scola and said "you're the man. you are the man.". Then they laughed and talked for a quick few and went on.
Everyone overrates the out of Scola. He's good at moving without the ball and getting open for looks, and footwork. decent rebounder. poor defender, inability to create his own shot consistently. Overall he's a decent player but ettefans won't quit blowing their load repeatedly every time he scores a point of grabs a rebound.
Thats all Scola needs to be is a guy who does all those things. He is'nt our 2nd or third option, he's our fourth.
It's not complicated. Scola cost the Rockets nothing to acquire, makes like $3million a year and is a nice, scrappy player. He's no all-star, but he's a solid starter for a good team. Why wouldn't Rockets fans be happy with him? I bet the Mavs would rather have someone like him at his salary and production then Eric Dampier pulling down a $73 million contract for his six points/ seven rebounds a game.
Scola is an effing beast that hustles no matter what stage of the game , a guy you don't have to create for, very nice post moves and a good finisher.
nuff said.
Wth are you smoking...
You guys just signed face for like 4mil a yr. and I'm sure he contributes a lot...
yea i signed him with money out of my own wallet. GTFO face everyone knows mav fans included that George sucks ass. Hence the thread "Give me AIDS, Mavs resign Breath." ing clown
Whether it was your money or not is NOT the point. We are talking about your negative comments about Scola when your teams biggest move this offseason was overpaying on face.
No, I'm saying that Scola is a very tough and effective offensive rebounder (as you probably saw in the Olympics semifinal game, where 4 of his 11 boards came on the offensive end). Tim Duncan also gets about a third of his boards on offence; are you calling TD a "poor defensive rebounder"?
Scola's 10 rebounds per 40 minutes is damned good, especially since he's not the primary rebounder on the Rockets.
(Sorry for the late response; a rather large sporting event has been sucking up all my free time.)
hey rocket fans, 05 game 7 rape.
I wonder if they ever found that turd I left at Reunion Arena 10 years ago.
That rant sounds like a worried Laker fan.
It must be off season.
Rockets fans annual y rant on the board telling us how unstoppable they are v. 4.0
Seriously; look at the threads this time from last season, the season before, etc. etc....
don't worry, once Yao/Mcgrady goes down with injuries and Artest runs into the crowd to bash someone or decides he is no longer happy in houston, then the Rockets fans will leave.
I've been on this board for a few years now and its the same every season. They come and talk up their chances but as soon as something goes wrong, they bail.
Not fans, not trolls......... but bandwagoners
ok Rockets fans, let me have itIt won't matter anyway coz i know the Nuggets suck and at least i can admit it
Mcgrady and Melo are 1st round losers, its just reality.![]()
I can take the smack talk, just don't lump us with the Nuggets. That's very insulting.![]()
why? They have both achieved exactly the same thing, zip.
Nah.
This year it's actually pretty legit, but even last year, if we had Yao, we would have beaten Utah.
Who in the cares about what fans of the Nuggets and Mavericks have to say? It's like listening to Miley Cyrus talk about her favorite music.
The Rockets are underdogs until they win, but it says something about their prospects that so many anklebiting fans are coming into this thread to talk a bunch of smack.
Go look up (and post) the 2007-08 NBA season stats between the two, and tell us again that Bass is better than Scola.
