Hate to break it to you whottt but Scola is better than more than one player on the Spurs current Roster - D leauge would be doubtful for him. Haven't you heard he is know as the Big Manu!
What makes you think Scola would have even gotten off the bench for the Spurs?
he might have wound up playing in the d-league.
He wouldn't have put up the numbers on this team that he is putting up on the Rockets...
He would have spent substantially more time on the bench for the Spurs than he is for the Rockets.
Spurs>Rockets

Here is what Thorpe says about Scola on ESPN:
As I watch hundreds of video clips and game tape of rookies each week, no player makes me appreciate the NBA game more than Luis Scola. Offensively, he plays the game the right way: moving in space, feeling gaps, making tough catches and tougher plays, and showing creativity with the ball around the rim. In short, he looks like a perfect player for the Spurs, the team that traded him. I still wonder what happened for that deal to go down.
That's right.
Spurs>Rockets.
This not because but DESPITE their bigs, except Duncan.
Scola is playing along an horrible point guard, a marble center and a you-guys-are-going-to-need-another-ball-cause-I-am-swallowing-this-one.
Not exactly Duncan and Parker and Ginobili.
In addition he is a winner.
He is the main reason why Argentina won the Olympic final game. He was absolutely unstoppable in that game.
A game that only happens once in a lifetime, NOT every other year (even or UNEVEN).
Finally, there is a nemesis.
May the Spurs NOT meet the Rockets in playoffs.

I still wonder the same
Big mistake by the Spurs FO.
True, but Scola sucks...
not true
Anyone who thinks that Scola would not be playing is nutz, he would be playing on ANY NBA team, his B-ball IQ is off the charts.
He has Kevin McHales types of offensive moves around the basket, he would most assuradly be playing for the Spurs.....
And he is the key reason the Rockets have won 10 out of 11 and 7 in a row.

Easy on the comparisons there, buddy.
McHale may suck at being a GM, but he was light years ahead of Scola as an inside player.
Oh, I am not saying he is as good as McHale...LOL.....just saying he has some of the same crafty type of moves around the basket.
He is not a super athlete, but his intellect is off the charts....he is a lot like Manu in that he plays to a different rythmn and it allows him to get an advantage doing it.
DD
with Scola we would be much better off at this point.
Scola >>> Bonner/Horry/Elson/Oberto
sorry mate.. aging Horry in the playoffs > Scola
What is outrageous is how good the Argentinian national team is going to be at the Olympics this year.
Manu
Scola
Oberto
Nocionne
Hermann
Delfino
They are going to give the USA a run for the Gold medal.
Hermann and Delfino need more minutes.
Any of the team from Argentina, Greece, Lithuania, Spain have good enough team beat US.
They make trade belief that Spanoulis will play for them. Do not believe any other lie said about the trade.I still wonder the same
Walter Hermmann is getting screwed on the Pistons squad. He was very good and was on my fantasy squad last year. Someone should rescue him from the bench of the Detroit Pistons.
but looks like Wilt Chamberlin compared to Elson/Bonner combined
Yes, because it's a known fact he would've been able to learn the system and be the main backup.
he's Argentinian, they know how to play in Pop's system, not like wouldn't have 2 friends to help him out
and Scola>>>>>Boner/Elson's nightly DNPs
Argentines know how to play in Pop's system. So why don't they just go out and get all the Argentines they can?
well let's see
the Spurs ed up on Scola
they ed up on drafting Noc
doesn't seem to likely then..........
