1. Scola never played for the Spurs so can't be a Spurs' legend
2. Campazzo is NBA caliber player. Probably best player in the tournament so far
Argentina/France. The perfect Spur playerfan game, if only Manu and Porker were still playing.

Let's meet halfway and say SpursTalk Legend.
Except for the upper echelon NBA players, American basketball is no longer numero uno
Poor Pop, series of setbacks in life
Will this affect the play of the Spurs?
I can concede that point
Argentina not losing a step without the Mexican Jarret Jack? Shocked
Campazzo was possibly an NBA caliber but on a very short body, he had no chance really. And I always loved him, but you can't play in the NBA if you are short and can't jump.
Basketball IQwise, an All-Star.
Argentina recently had some outstanding playmakers, if one thinks about it -Pepe Sanchez, Prigioni, Montecchia, Campazzo, all with inferior bodies but very clever players.
But the best tournament player, IMO of course, is Satoransky. He really carries the team on his shoulders all by himself (the others suck). And doesn't even need to shoot that much.
JJ Barea says hi.
Also, Campazzo got hops:
Yeah, that ended in a block.
In previous years, I could understand the size argument. Now, he got to a point where his size can't be used as excuse to ignore his skill level.
Campazzo is arguably the best PG in Europe right now. One of the best PG's in the World. Most NBA teams don't have two PG's better than him. He deserves a place in the NBA, problem is he is too expensive now.
Campazzo is more than an inch shorter than JJ.
There is only one player shorter than Campazzo in the NBA, Tyler Ulis who has a vertical leap of 33" which is 'ONLY' 5 inches MORE than the average NBA player...
There was IT but on a different role.
I'd love for him to play in the NBA as a recognition of his quality, as I said I love him, but he really cannot take the court in 'modern" NBA, he would be eaten alive on the defensive end.
Argentina leads France 39-32 at halftime. USA.
Argentina just schooling France on D. 57-42
UPDATE: Spurs legend Luis Scola leads Argentina to a massive W against France
Scola with 28/13
39 year old Scola with 28/13
Against NBA's best defensive player nonetheless.
would be the best big on the spurs right now.
We got revenge from the soccer WC.
Argentina doesn't need Manure.
