I think Scola is the most polished rookie PF since Tim Duncan. The only thing he needs to improve is rebounding

you are smoking sth right? LS could be goog but at the level of TD!??
Ginobili rookie year: 7.6 ppg 2.3 rpg
Scola rookie year: 7.8 ppg 4.9 rpg
Did Scola have an ankle injury?
see... he is even more durable than Manu!
Luis Scola already with a CAREER HIGH 24 points in the T-Wolves game.
Final score: Rockets win 113-82 against T-Wolves. Scola nets 24 pts and 8 rebs.
T-Wolves
Really?
More polished than Elton Brand 20.1/10.0 (2000)?
Kenyon Martin 12/7.4 (2001)?
Andrei Kirilenko 10.7/4.9 (2002)?
Amare Stoudemire 13.5/8.8 (2003)?
Nene 10.5/6.1 (2003)?
Drew Gooden 12.1/5.8 (2003)?
Chris Bosh 11.5/7.4 (2004)?
Channing Frye 12.3/5.8 (2006)?
Al Horford 8.9/9.5 (2007)?
yea really, when u consider he is not playing major minutes and he is the 7th man on our roster and the 4th offensive option behind yao, tmac and rafer
None of those guys would be the seventh man on your roster.
Scola seems to play quite well for three weeks. Congrats to him, let's hope it will continue.
Yeah, he only need to show his skill in a decisive game; I'm still have doubt about his ability to translate his game from FIBA to NBA environment.
Is it that hard to get a career high in your rookie season or something?
Duncan right now is getting ZERO support from his other big men
Scola Hater: "Scola would be been 100x worse then Bonner, I mean look how productive he has been this year"
Not 100x worse....
Scola as a roockie>Bonner in his 4rd NBA season.
Let's close this thread,we all know Scola will do well in the NBA.
Too bad is not with the spurs.
I agree he's not good enough to keep talking about, that's for sure.
Oh yeah he is more polished than those guys in their rookie years.
But it's mostly because of his European experience
Scola > Oberto + Bonner + Elson
yet you and everyone keeps posting on page 33
"Polished" must mean "older", then.
He's already had good but also bad stretches.
But he's starting to get confidence from his team and teamates.
9 and 5 in 20 mn and 52% is decent, considering he's not getting many touches or plays.
All in all, I don't think the rockets dealt very well Scola from his arrival. They didn't put him in the best conditions to get the best of him in treating him like the typical rookie.
Sure he had to prove he could play in NBA but giving his past and experience in Europe and international games, they should have give him a bit more consideration and opportunities to prove his value.
Obviously, his defense is still too soft and he's more confortable on attack. That's why they should try to get the best of him on offense when he's on court and not let him be the fourth option.
But it seems to be changing the past weeks.
