I'll take that seeing that all he got was 17 minutes.
Damn, if only the Spurs coulda had Scola to step in for Duncan against the Mavs . . .
Difference in the Grizzlies game is that Adelman with the long layoff told his players to distribute the ball more. Now they are passing the ball to Scola instead of the Yao/T-Mac show. Bonzi scored 24 pts.
really, why are you guys so fired up about this coulda shoulda player. I've watched the rockets a couple of times and this guy is no big deal. from what I've heard he wanted a lot of money to be a bench player and that's all he'll ever be is a bench player. slow and useless doesn't sound like much to talk about
16 pts and TD injured ... that hurts
I was thinking the same16 pts and TD injured ... that hurts
Another Solid game by Scola,last night He showed that he can be a key role player for ANY NBA team and that He can score even in limited minutes.
A Rockets victory,a solid game by Scola.
I wonder what was Bonner's production on last night game for the Spurs.
ohh,never mind.
16 pts in 17 minutes..give him more of Chuck Hayes minutes and you'll see a monster develop under the boards.
I didn't watch the game,but I did watch the NBA.COM highlights.They showed a strong Offensive board by Scola followed by the basket and the fould for the and 1..
Nice play,and good Offensive board over Gasol.
Never have so many jerked off so furiously to a win over the Grizzlies.
Tell me chumpD:
Never have so many jerked off so furiously to a win over the Grizzlies.
What were Bonner's numbers last night again?
Thank you.
Yeah but...where were the rebounds?
Luckily they kept his minutes low or else it would have been another loss. He has to score 16 points in 18 minutes to offset his defensive liabilities, no way for him to keep up that rate....
Tell me though:
what were Bonner's numbers last night vs the Mavs??
And He's a 3rd year player while Scola is still a roockie.
Right now Scola is rebounding at the same rate as Elson or Oberto,but being a better scorer,and He's rebounding and scoring at a higher rate tham Bonner.
Nice try Wottt, but keep in mind that people here ain't as stupid as you think they are in order to keep bringing this kind of nonsense arguments you tend to bring.
Like I said before you aint batting at 1.000 no more,a long time ago though.
Please somebody stop the wagon and let this asshole off! You root for one or other not both regardless who's on or not on the team.
I'm just prooving people wrong here boy,It's got nothing to do with the Rockets.
So chill out Jerk,......I mean Jay.
You go on and on and on and on and on and on can you pleaseScola is good on some nights and bad on others he's not a in all-star. You probably voted for him, am i right? If you want to prove something about Scola you can prove he's inconsistent.

Scola is moving up on the Rookie Rankings. Now rated 6th

I like to think of Kevin Durant as a Bill Clinton type of leader of the Rookie Rankings. Sure he has his flaws, (4-15 team record and inconsistency that leads to games like his six points against Golden State on 2-of-12 shooting), but you can't help but like the guy because of his overall excellence. It was a banner week for KD as he was named Rookie of the Month, dropped a career-high 35 points against Indiana and his team had a not-so morbid 2-3 record.

Now that Moon is on the scene, the pogo stick of a man is doing his best to stay there. In five games last week Moon corralled 10-plus rebounds in three of them and had two blocks in four of them. The Toronto rookie is logging a ton of minutes with his teammates Chris Bosh (groin) and Andrea Bargnani (knee) out of the lineup.

Horford is 12th in the league in rebounding, ahead of guys like Yao Ming, Tim Duncan and Amare Stoudemire. It doesn't get much more impressive than that. After playing as the starting power forward and the backup center for the Hawks, Horford has recently settled into the starting center slot in Atlanta.

Navarro has scored in double digits in seven games straight, even Kevin Garnett can't claim that. KG, who was the NBA's active leader of most consecutive games in double digits at 435, failed to reach the 10-point mark twice last week and had his streak broken.

After only grabbing 11 rebounds in his first four games last week, Yi stepped it up and collected 10 boards in his fifth game last night against the Warriors. His production has slipped slightly since the Bucks were off to a 7-4 start. With Milwaukee having lost five of its last six games, it will be interesting to see how Yi responds.

I like the guy that Scola is becoming for the Rockets, serving as an able subs ute for Chuck Hayes and bringing hard-nosed play and tenacity to a team that comes off as soft sometimes. He is the exact opposite of Chamillionaire, who I thought was a big let down when he guest hosted for Xzibit on Pimp My Ride last week. (It's one of my guilty pleasures, OK? Back off.)

We know that Jason Kidd is a big supporter of Williams and one of the main reasons that the big man out of Boston College has cracked the Nets rotation. Now that Kidd might be on the trading block, how will that affect Williams' situation?

Green is going to have a class action suit on his hands from fantasy owners across the country if he keeps shooting the three-ball at a 10 percent success rate. Other than that, there continues to be a lot of upside to the All BIG EAST NBA Team member.

My high school history teacher, Mr. Balk, used to do the color commentary for my high school basketball games on public access TV and a line he liked to use describing bench players was, "He's instant offense -- just add playing time," in an ode to an old "Just add water" slogan. Daequan Cook is Instant Offense.

Young averages 0.547 points per minute played this season. If he was getting as much playing time as Kevin Durant and kept up the same scoring rate, his points per game average would jump to 18.4. He'll be one to watch for if he starts getting more burn.
The Next 10 (alphabetical order): Arron Afflalo (DET), Corey Brewer (MIN), Javaris Crittenton (LAL), Glen Davis (BOS), Jared Dudley (CHA), Spencer Hawes (SAC), Acie Law (ATL), Joakim Noah (CHI), Jason Smith (PHI), Al Thornton (LAC)
Noteworthy
Fesenko
It took Kyrylo Fesenko (UTA) a month and a trip to the D-League before he got off the HNPAMY list, but he perservered and put up six points and seven rebounds in a win against the Lakers.
Acie Law (ATL) returned to the Haws lineup after missing eight games with a sprained left ankle and followed up an 0-for-8 performance in his first game back by going 5-for-6 in his second game.
Demetris Nichols (CLE) was waived to make room for the signing of Anderson Varejao.
Jared Dudley (CHA) is knocking on the door of the top 10, but followed up a 16-point, 10-rebound outing by going 0-for-6 from the field.
The HNPAMY (Have Not Played A Minute Yet) Club: Herbert Hill (PHI), Brandon Wallace* (BOS), Oleksiy Pecherov (WAS), Rodney Stuckey (DET), Ramon Sessions* (MIL), Marcin Gortat* (ORL), JamesOn Curry* (CHI), Adam Haluska (NOH) and Kosta Perovic* (GSW)
* = assigned to the D-League

Damn, he's moving up quick
I can't believe we could have signed Jamario Moon...
You want to rip the FO for something...that's it right there.
He's going to be the ROY.
And he was a FA.
Who cares?
The Spurs won you colossal waste of , and they are SIX GAMES ahead of Scola's team.
That's all that ever matters, dumbass.
Thank you, for being the stupidest poster in the history of stupidity.
Now I completely agree with this. He was dominating the CBA in about every way possible. I simply thought he was too slight to be as effective as he turned out to be in the NBA.
so what's your evaluation of scola so far? has he lived up to the potential that everyone thought he'd be? 7.3 pts per game doesn't sound that impressive - how many nba players have that stat? kudos to argentina fans that support their players, but this post is ridiculous. the sperms are on fire and this bag wouldn't necessarily make them better. he'd ride the pine and make a couple of shots, but at the end of the day he wouldn't impact their success enough to overlook the fact that he was asking for a lot of money and a lot of playing time. houston got him cheap b/c he figured out that he wasn't going to get the money he thought he was gonna get. I just don't get this argument - don't get me wrong we'd love to have him.
