    And consequently Ely is making how much?
    Next season? Who knows. He might be much more of a bargain and much less of a risk than Scola.
    By "intangibles" I am referring to the winning at ude, the aggressiveness, and the heart.
    Didn't Oberto have all that? What was the price premium on that?

    Why should a guy be denied $3M per year when someone without the intangibles gets that much...

    By "intangibles" I am referring to the winning at ude, the aggressiveness, and the heart. Seems like Scola plays with a passion that I don't think the Clips or Bobcats ever saw out of Ely...
    good point.

    Sure, why not? The Spurs should stand pat with what they've got next year? Or they should re-up a guy like Ely for a one-year deal...assuming he'd take it? Give me some options here Chump...

    If it's so little to you, I'll take any spare millions you have laying around.

    who said Oberto was all that??
    In my book Oberto is a mediocre NBA player,and I thought that since before he came to the NBA,and most of people who watches FIBA basketball knows that.
    But Scola is a diferent story Chump.

    He got a qualifying offer of $3M. If he shows anything in the next few months I think he looks for similar money and longer term. If he shows nothing, is he worth re-signing?

    Yeah Chump he did, with HALF the talent.

    Should they spend most of their exception money on Scola when they don't have to? Are there any other positions where the Spurs need help?
    Or they should re-up a guy like Ely for a one-year deal...assuming he'd take it?
    Why limit him to one year if your willing to give Scola three? If you grant their potential production as being more or less equal, Ely's re-signing could conceivably cost ZERO extension money, even if his asking price is the same as Scola's.
    Give me some options here Chump...
    You want a list of free agents and draft prospects? Thinking Scola is the only option is myopic.

    He doesn't even average 6 rebounds in 27 minutes in Euroleague. Four boards in 17 minutes would be a reach in the NBA.

    So Scola would go from an average rebounder in Europe to the best rebounder in the NBA?

    If Scola comes in and averages more rebounds per minute than anyone in the league, I'll remember that ArgScolaFan said it first.

    Good luck.

    He doesn´t have to.FIBA basketball is diferent tham NBA basketball.
    why you think the US gets busted when they play againts ather countries under FIBA rules.?
    They have deferents rules in FIBA tham NBA.like the shot clock for example.they give a new shot clock every time the ball goes out of bounds.that´s why games under FIBA rules ussually end up like 80-69 scores,for example,and players average less points and rebounds tham in NBA

    and also FIBA games are of 4 qts of 10 mins each one.(40 mins total)
    Another reason to average less points and rebounds p/game

    Rebounds Per 48 Minutes
    1. Luis Scola - 19.8
    2. Reggie Evans - 19.4
    3. Dikembe Mutombo - 18.5
    4. Tyson Chandler - 17.2
    5. David Lee - 16.8

    Believe.

    How exactly would those rule changes result in Scola's rebounding at a rate greater than ANY PLAYER IN THE NBA THIS SEASON?

    You only get 5 fouls in the FIBA rules. In the NBA, you get 6. Plus there is zone allowed in FIBA and the games are played mostly in European time zones. Also Scola's balls he plays with aren't real leather.

    Also, the fans do those soccer-style cheers all while the game is in progress. Very distracting to the rebounders.

    No, you already told us that Scola will be the most productive rebounder in the NBA next season. Why back down from there?

    they use the balls that NBA players didn´t like this season and changed to the old ball back again
