    Uh, so you're saying Oberto LEADERSHIP is above what Scola had? how many extra les got Oberto over Scola there, care to show me?

    FWIW, what about the rest? where is the Basketball_knowledge_based analysis? why don't you say anything regarding the fact that Scola in FIBA Basketball (where less physical shape and a lot more intelligence is needed) Scola played waaay better? why would he play worse than Oberto in a more physical league, given the fact that he's younger, faster, more atheltic, better post moves and better mid range shooting, having the same BB IQ, rebounding and size?
    C'mon.No kidding.Are you view his last game in ACB2007 against Barcelona or last game against Panathinaikos in Euroleage2007?
    Really...bad games.
    I'm talking about Scola, but you're talking about Kevin Garnett or Paul Gasol or... Are you talk about Scola?

    Oberto won ACBLeague2002-3 whit Tau like started. Scola? from bench. Oberto played so well Finals World ChampionShip 2002, Scola? from bench. Oberto did guard Tim Duncan in Olympic Games 2004, Scola? from bench.

    Scola is a great player, but not much better than Oberto.
    His offensive is very good, but his defensive isn't decent.

    I like Scola, really, I like this guy.
    But NOCIONI>>>>>>>>>>Scola.

    But NOCIONI>>>>>>>>>>Scola.
    Nocioni and Oberto and Scola were teammates several years ago, remember, when Oberto was a starter and Scola a bench player, Scola was a junior and Oberto a mature player, and even then Scola stats weren't inferior to Oberto, not even i rebounding....
    And Scola was also a leader of Tau ahead Nocioni, when both of them consolidated as starters....
    And talking about the Olympics, Scola was practically the co-MVP with Ginobili, why did you forget to mention that? why not checking the whole olympics not just one game? Scola 25 pts 11 rebs in the final was forgotten?

    Do you forget that, as happened in Tau, Scola was ahead Nocioni there also?

    And again, ¿is it false that Scola has far better midrange shoot than Oberto? is it false that Scola is faster? is it far that Scola has noticeable better vertical?

    Of course Scola is not Garnett regarding athelticism, but, would you deny he's faster and more athletic than Oberto?

    C'mon, guy. Are you angry?.
    I said "I LIKE SCOLA" "SCOLA'S A GREAT PLAYER"But no more better than Oberto. Nothing else.
    And I like so much Nocioni than Scola.
    What's the thorny problem?

    Look, you guys are completely whacking out over this.

    1st off... euro ball is COMPLETELY different than NBA. The season is around 20 games long start to finish. They allow you to bang much much more. This is why Scola is so valuable to his team, because he is a big brute. That is also why Fab and Manu, for example, will foul so much in silly situations. Because in euro, it is allowed.

    Next, the player carrying Tau is Tiago, not Scola. Personally, I think we should dump Scola and draft Tiago. He is a monster down low, taller, younger, and more athletic than Scola. He is expected to last until late 1st round. His 7'2" wingspan and 9'1.5" standing reach would be useful. Heck, I'd also rather have the younger Gasol brother over Scola at this point, tho Tiago is supposed to be quicker than Marc.

    One of the main es about Scola is that he is MVP-type material all reg season and then goes to sleep in the Final Four.

    Scola is by far the better player over Tiago Splitter. It's not even close.

    "Fab and Manu... foul so much in silly situations... in euro, it is allowed."

    I'm not sure you know what you're talking about. In Europe, they get five fouls a game, not six. And given the length of the season, fouling out is much more devastating over there.

    When I saw Scola play the first time I couldn't find an NBA player he reminded me of, but watching Boozer play this year made me believe that Scola could make it in the NBA he has a very similar game but a more polished post game. I now believe he will be able to excel in the NBA. It's not like he is Charles Barkley/Milik Rose height trying to play the 4 spot. The only questions are can he and Tim play together and can he play defense? We won't know that until we see them play together.

    I would agree that Scola is better but Tiago is more versitle and can do more things than Scola can. defensively I don't know if Scola can defend effectively. I compare him to Boozer from Utah and he is not a very good defender. Splitter atlease looks like he has the ability to defend in the post. And yes I have read his scouting report and know he has a lot of work to do in that department.

    On spanish forums, figure given for Scola's buyout is 2M€ ($2.6M). His salary is 1.5M€ ($2M).

    Bring Scola and Nocioni. An entire country will become fans of the Spurs.
    With Manu and Fabricio already on the team, and having enjoyed so much success in San Antonio, I'd assume that all of Argentina already is a fan of the Spurs.

    Scola had a very good winter but ended up the season on low notes.
    Yes, Boozer is the NBA player that reminds Scola the most.
    More physical and talented offensively than Oberto, less basketball IQ.
    In a Spurs system relying on TD' double coverage, he would get lots of opportunities from mid range (and make the most of them). He would also spare TD's minutes as a sub, as his low post game is very solid.
    There are two ifs.
    1) Defense: he would have to adapt quickly to a different system. That can be done, as defense is just a matter of will.
    2) Big games. He still has to prove the he can win big games with big shots. Is this a problem for the Spurs?

    Other than that, it's just matter of money.

    I dont think it´s a matter of money at this point.
    Scola is done with Europe.He wants out of Tau,no matter what.
    Tau has no other choice tham leting him go for a rasonable buyout,or He´ll just play the way He did for the last month and a half.Period
    He just got the NBA on his head.There´s nothing else to do in Europe for him.

    no, because he isn't the "man" on the Spurs, and he understands that



    Spurs don't have character problems with it's players, history shows that

    Because they don't sign or keep players that do what you're saying Scola did.
