this is plain and simple BS. you DID state that Manu didn't like Scola and start talking that crap like Manu did a plot for the Spurs not to bring him. it is easy to find that on the Official Scola Thread. you have to get over it... Manu is VERY close to Scola and they are best friends. Also.. and start sucking this... Scola is VERY close to Tiago Splitter... even his son has his name to honor him...
strong reason for "someone" start ing on Tiago
don't get what you mean can you be more explicit?

I figure the conversation went something like this:
Pop: Who's a better defensive player and who do you think would compliment Duncan more, Scola or Oberto?
Manu: Oberto.
Pop: Thanks.
It's either that or you have to believe that
A. The Spurs don't ask for their players advice and take their opinions into consideration when thinking of potential FA aquisitions. Which has been proven false many times. Because they do do that.
B. Manu said he liked Scola better and the Spurs said, you.
Like I said...this is all speculation on my part, it's just what makes sense to me.
Whottt is basing all of his points of assumptions which are proably false which s up his premis and conclusion. Let's not make this into a Scola thread.
This article further exemplifes the fact that Manu is a ing G.
true otherwise Josh Howard would be a Spur right now
Doubtful
you sounded way more confident than this on your previous posts. This tone at least makes you look better that it is YOUR take and NOTHING close to reality.
can i ask you what do you mean when you say someone is a "G"?
He's a pimped out gangsta, basically I'm saying Manu is badass/cool/awesome. LOL
Please post it, by all means.
And you have to realize that just because Manu isn't saying Scola sucks ass doesn't mean he wanted him on this team.you have to get over it...
Manu is VERY close to Scola and they are best friends. Also.. and start sucking this... Scola is VERY close to Tiago Splitter... even his son has his name to honor him...
If they are so close how come he didn't name his son Manu?
I've been saying Scola was an asshole for 5 years...I also said years ago he wouldn't be a Spur because he was such an asshole...
I then had fine Argies like smeagol telling me I was full of hate and didn't know what I was talking about...
I have yet to see smeagol or any Argie own up to that...
THAT THEY WERE WRONG.
Accountability is a two way street.
And BTW, I talk a lot of during the course of an argument...seldom is it 100% serious.
be patient.. i am reading each of your posts on the Scola thread and i'll show you your Manu plot story not to bring him to the Spurs soon...
As for Oberto VS Scola
Oberto gets more rebounds per 48 minutes than Scola - Fact
Oberto has a better rebound rate than Scola - Fact
Oberto shoots nearly 100% higher from the field than Scola - Fact
Oberto was the best defensive big, who drew the toughest defensive asignments for team Argentina and was their team captain - Also fact.
Whottt wanted Oberto to replace David Robinson, in 2003 even as he was saying Scola was an asshole for comments he made on draft night, also a fact.
In short...I have not been wrong a single time about Scola, or about Oberto...and still I am being challenged as if I were. By people that were not even on this board when Scola was drafted.
And while we're at it...whottt said the Rockets were likely to get owned the first time they faced a team with a dominanrt bigman without Yao...
Which incidentally...happened last night.
The Rockets front line is decimated by injury, to the degree that they are starting a 41 year old C..and I still never saw Scola playing meaningful minutes during the 4th quarter of any Rockets game I watched during that streak.
In closing.....Scola is over-rated.
And an asshole.
For people who are freaking out now - pay attention to what he said: we weren't that good then and we arent that bad now, on that we are clear.
then = when they won 11 straight games
now = when they lost the last 3
I just don't understand what kind of "insider" knowledge Manu might have that Spurs office didn't.
Spurs office have been watching Scola more than Manu. I can guarantee they made up their mind all on their own.
Manu is so passionate about winning that it's awesome. He has that kind of personality that he takes loss to his soul. But I actually wish he would be sleeping instead of writing and pondering. He needs rest more than anyone on the team right now.
be patient.. i am reading each of your posts on the Scola thread and i'll show you your Manu plot story not to bring him to the Spurs soon...
Ehh...that was probably a joke or sarcasm to piss the Argie homers off.
For the record...
The night Scola was drafted by the Spurs, he said, it would have been better if he hadn't been drafted at all.
He said this because of the buyout clause he had with Tau...which made his buyout much more difficult if he wasn't drafted until the second round.
And he made similar derisive, negative or inflammatory comments either via his agent, or speaking directly in interviews, like the one during the 04 Olympics on American TV, for the rest of his time as a Spur.
I don't care why he said it...he was whining, and it was extremely offensive and rude, not to mention self centered, and from that moment, I have never liked Scola. He will likely never win an NBA championship and I celebrate that fact...because his own mouth ed him over.
What Scola said that night, was like winning the 1 million dollar lottery and whining because you didn't win the 20 million dollar lottery...
What a little .
Scola.
I'm glad he's not a Spur...
Um...he knows Scola personally since they have been playing together for years on Team Argentina. He knows every strength and flaw in his game, as only a teamate can.
Spurs office have been watching Scola more than Manu. I can guarantee they made up their mind all on their own.
I'm sorry but that's an incredibly stupid statement...I guarantee you Manu knows Scola's game better than the Spurs ever will.
And the Spurs do ask their players what they think...
Stephen Jackson was a Tim Duncan reccomendation for instance...
this is true
(but i don't have link to this)
ok but you hurt our feelings when you say Manu doesn't like him... look at his own post whottt! he is part of the Scola church and you'll have to live with that...
link??
we all know that.. just don;t come and post as if you'd have Manu insider info that HE (Manu Ginobili) don't like him... i know it has to hurt that Manu had a whole paragraph to root for him...I'm glad he's not a Spur...
Scola has been playing in prime time Euroleague for years. what other kinda strengths and weaknesses would manu know that haven't been shown already?
you are hilarious
now one thing the Spurs office + Manu would have never known is that Scola would flourish in the NBA. since he is international. that was the only unknown, but Manu would not have had the answer to that one either.
