    What use would the Spurs give to Duhon?
    He's a much better backup point guard than we have now.

    I think picnroll said it best, Scola would box Dirk out much better then both Finley and Bowen could. Dirk had way too many offensive rebounds in the series and some of them were huge down the stretch.

    IMO the Spurs should try everything to get Scola over for next season. If Scola does arrive, I think Pop should really consider a starting front court of Duncan and Scola along with Bowen.

    What I've seen of Scola he's quite mobile and quick for his position. I think he could for instance guard guys like Dirk pretty well. Combine his height and strength along with his decent quickness he should be quite able to guard Dirk, at least not any worse then Bowen and Finley did.
    Scola would bit Dirk is the coach ask for it

    no way the bulls let go of nocioni, he won the bulls "player of the year" according to bulls.com. he is their future along with hinrich. but i would LOVE to have luel deng. especially if he learns to play defense from bruce bowen he can be a MONSTER. his offensive game is not too shabby as well.

    depending on how scola does if we bring him over for the summer leagues id highly consider sending him to chicago for deng.

    Deng's probably the one that's available, but people need to realize that Chicago's not going to give him up for our table scraps.

    aggie fan your probably right but the bulls are really high on scola. and nocioni is his buddy so maybe he might push paxson to pull the trigger. so now we basically have to evaluate is deng>scola?

    This alleged trade doesn't make financial sense. looking at how long Deng is signed, there's no way the Spurs will do a sign and trade deal for Scola; or any trade for that matter unless they get financial compensation and Deng in one bag.

    I remember there were questions about Nocioni being athletic enough to play in the NBA. We can only hope Scola has as much of problem adapting to the NBA as Chapo did. And if Scola did play as well as Nocioni did and the Spurs had traded him the line of P&Mers and "I told you soers" would reach form here back to page 2000.

    The most we can hope from Chicago is a guard and a trade exception. They're saving the others for big moves like KG or some such rot.

    #16 for Scola? They do need to replace Songaila.

    Scola for #16 seems like a big waste

    ??? He's two years into his 4 year rookie deal. Chicago can't even extend him further than that at this point. His deal is what it is, and if they bite on Scola for Deng, you ing DO IT.

    In a regular draft, I'd trade Scola for a 16th pick every year. However, this is the weakest draft in years so I don't know if I make that deal. It depends on if anyone falls.

    As far as a Duncan and Scola frontcourt, it really depends on whether Scola is a decent rebounder or not. If he's a bad rebounder, the Spurs are screwed. The season would be over in November.

    Do you take that risk?

    Oh and if there is anyway the Spurs can get Deng for Scola, that'd go down as the best trade in Spurs history.

    I make it part of my masterful Nazr-for-Duhon deal.

    Scola just doesn't look like he'll fit here unless we play him almost exclusively the 12-15 minutes Duncan is on the bench.

    We spent last night pooh-poohing a guy like Fizer, to my mind Luis is a skinnier Fizer without the range. I guess the Argie mystique is what Scola really has going for him, but that's difficult to quantify.

    Fizer has range? Fizer has a jumpshot at any length?

    static.....the contract #s on Scola wouldn't even come close to matching what Deng is making right now. The buyout is not worth the risk unless the Spurs are offered Deng, a first round pick and cash compensation.

    Scola's deal is going to be bigger than Deng's contract. There's no way the Bulls trade Deng for Scola ... much less adding cash and a first round pick.

    I believe in his last game Scola had 24 points and 17 rebounds. That's pretty damn good.

    But if we could somehow get Luol Deng...wow. Maybe Nocioni could help us out there? I know he'd love playing with Scola the way Manu plays with Oberto. And he is a SF and so is Deng...you never know.

    Atlanta should be looked at for SFs. They have a mul ude.

    The difference is Scola has yet to play an NBA game so sky's the limit while Fizer has had his chance on 3 teams and they all determined he sucked, also Fizer's only success has been in college while Scola has had success in Euroleague which is far superior to college and the olympics where he played very well against NBA players including Tim Duncan.
