How many Euro pf's are in the league under 7 feet that are difference makers?
The best part of the trade with the Rockets is it'll make ArgScolaFan post less. The less of his clueless takes, the better. Now he'll just be an illiterate version of ploto bemoaning the loss of another soft post player that can't rebound.

Yeah, and to win 52 games with all those games missed by Yao, incredible. That injury was a freak thing, where Tim Thomas and Chuck Hayes collided causing Tim Thomas to freakishly roll over Yao's right leg causing a small non-displaced tibial fracture, kind of like when AK47 kicked/stepped on his foot and caused a small fracture. His toe-nail infections have gone away with having them pulled and correcting his shoes. So, Yao should be able to continue his mvp-type domination at the 5 and he won't be as tired since he won't always be in the low post.....he will spend some time in the high post passing to cutters and hitting the long J......this will keep him fresh in the 4 q (and late in the season) where his nearly 90% shooting prevents hack a Yao.
T-Mac has received proactive back treatments from Dr. Patterson in Waco and has not had any significant issues related to back spasms since. Adelman intends on taking some of the scoring load off of him and making the game easier for him and this will help his back.
If they can stay healthy, and get solid contributions from everyone else.....they should get out of the first round and from there anything is possible.

"continue his mvp domination"
??
How about we get a bigman that shot 76% from the field and pulled down 7 rebounds(like a career high for Scola) and over a block and a half per game, in leading his team to a Euroleague le?
Don't insult Rasho by comparing his rebounding to Scola's...
Wrong again.Just like when you predicted Scola wasnīt gonna get a 3 yrs 10 M deal.
whottt has a five year head start in hating Scola on the rest of Spurs fans. It'll take some time for the rest of us to catch up but until then hopefully [b]whottt[/c] can lead the way.
Yao was averaging 27 (26.8pts) and 10 (9.7 rebs) before he went down with the injury and was dominating the 5 spot in an MVP-type fashion.
Houston Chronicle:
"You're talking about a guy on a MVP pace that has been carrying this team the past two seasons
yeah,run away,it will still catch up and bite you in the butt.
Seriously...
Rasho ing won a Euroleague le in 1998...he shot 76% from the field, he pulled down over 7 boards a game...he blocked over a shot and a half per game...
That kicks Scola's ass...do you get it Sequ?
Anthony Parker is like the Magic Johnson of Euroleague, 2 Euroleague MVP's...that mofo will be lucky to win a 6thman of the year award in the NBA.
How'd Jackofvikicieus do once he got to the NBA?
Everyone wants to give other players credit for what Manu has done...
By my reckoning...there are exactly 4 players in Euroleague(two of whom never even played in Euroleague) history who have translated European SuperStar and franchise ability to the NBA....and the Spurs currently have two of them...the other two are Sabonis and Dirk.
Euroleague ball is getting better...countries like Greece and France are producing some serious ballers...but don't telling me some that can't even win a Euroleague le(because he underperforms) and can't even rebound like a bigman in the Euroleague...is going to be the key to the Spurs winning a le this year.
Don't be thinking Dirks are growing on trees over in Europe...there's exactly one Dirk NBA or otherwise...just like so far there's exactly one Manu.
The fact that Rasho was a better rebounder than Scola in Euroleague should shut anyone the up about his Spurs worthiness...if Rasho could rebound...he'd still be here. If Scola could rebound...he'd be here.
Rasho plays the Center pos.Itīs ok to average 2 more rpg tham a PF.No biggie.
How many low post Euro bigs known for their offensive game have come to the US and had success? Vlade. Sabonis. Z. All real bigs, not undersized bigs. Anyone else?
The point is that Rasho can't rebound worth a flip in the NBA.
I asked the question of how many Euro pf's under 7 feet are playing in the NBA right now and making any kind of difference?
Anyone?
Oberto.And He is 6.9 and way less athletic or faster tham Luis.
keep trying though.
Oberto.
You are truly the biggest homer of all time
The only reason the SPurs have 4 les is because of the Euros we've drafted right?
Oberto isn't known for his offense....he's known for his toughness and smarts...non physical attributes, that translate to any league in the world, which is why I was on the Obertowagon from the day Drob retired on....
Scola is an unathletic player who plays an athletic style of ball, he's just skilled enough to pull it off in Europe...he's going to get assraped by third string scrub defenders in the NBA.
I believe He ended up on the floor in the 4rd quarters vs the cavs making big plays contributing in the post.That used to be Horryīs job before and He took it.

Y'all wait Oberto will avg a double double next year
So,is Scola,I really donīt see your point.
Thatīs what every single person who have seen him play,has said about him.Great low post offense and BBIQ.
If Scola doesn't average 16 and 6 this year you should change your name to ArgArgFan...
I applaud you Argiehomerism in the right environment...this just isn't it. Save that for FIBA...this is the NBA...NBA TEAMS...not individuals...TEAM Players.
In the NBA...I don't give a who is from where...I care about Spurs wins.
You could put the biggest anti-american in history on the Spurs...like Usama Bin Laden, Nbadan, or boutons...and I would still root for the team...because it's about the team.
Spurs are good enough for Oberto and Manu ing Ginobili but not ing Scola? That thinks he should somehow be the only player in basketball history exempt from draft rules? And whines like a when the best organization in the NBA drafts him?
this dude...
He and Pop met face to face at Tony's wedding...and Pop said dump this to the best team that we play often, that will take his over-rated ass, so I can have Duncan beat his ass into the dirt as often as possible until the day he retires.
Who in the Scola think he is...Manu ing Ginobili?
He's not...not even close. As a talent..as a team player...deal with it. Some Argies suck...just like some Americans suck. Scola is one of them...this will be revealed in time.
IF Scola could have kept his ing hole shut for more than 5 minutes in the last 5 years, we probably could have traded him for a non ty Argie...like Nocioni.
His fault...not ours.
Just like it's his ing fault his agent and Tau ed him into the worst contract in history...not ours.
Now...he's going to get Duncan's foot up his ass 4 times a year until the day he crawls back to Europe....just remember, he asked for it.
You don't think Duncna is going to take it a personal affront that this scrub ing Euro PF has been pissing on his organization from day 1...
Not to mention the Olympics?
You are wrong. Duncan is going to own this like he's never owned any PF before.
Luis Scola is probably the last PF I would want to be in the NBA...
