Regarding Scola, Translation please

[Kori Ellis]

I'm just feeling around for a reason here.

Which would be... TAU wants to force his hand by saying 'you either leave now for the NBA or you stay in Europe forever.' I guess it doesn't make total sense. The consolation for them is he does stay with them, something they wouldn't mind, but I think they're really after the money.

Well I guess I'd believe that if his contract ended in 2007. But his current contract doesn't even end til 2008, right?

What does it say?

It says no news.

[Mr. Body]

A lot of this doesn't make sense. If Scola signs an extension, why couldn't he request them to drop the buyout clause, or considerably lessen it? Doesn't he have some control over this situation?

I don't know why everything has to come to a head this summer. I originally thought his contract was over next summer, but apparently he has two more years left. So much of this is confusing.

Kori- my Spanish is awful but I think it says there hasn't been a change in Scola's situation.

Okay, here's another new Scola article.

Situación estacionaria para Scola

La ausencia de noticias en torno a Luis Scola es la mejor nueva para el TAU
Cerámica. Durante la jornada de ayer la prórroga de tres días solicitada al Baskonia por los agentes del jugador para buscar una salida a la NBA siguió corriendo sin que se registraran movimientos definitivos. Fuentes cercanas al jugador aseguraron que la situación permanece estacionaria. Ni los San Antonio Spurs han mostrado aún ninguna predisposición a traspasar los derechos del porteño ni la puerta se ha abierto en dirección a cualquier otra franquicia.

En el bullicioso mercado de la NBA, muchos jugadores comienzan a cambiar de destino y los clubes atrapan sus primeras adquisiciones, pero los Spurs ni siquiera se animan a utilizar como moneda de cambio a un baloncestista al que ya han comunicado que no desean enrolar este verano.

Stationary situation for Scola

The absence of the news around Luis Scola is best the new one for the Ceramic TAU. During the day of yesterday the prorogation of three days solicitd to the Baskonia by the agents of the player to look for an exit to the NBA it continued running without definitive movements were registered. Sources near the player assured that the situation remains stationary. Neither San Antonio Spurs has shown still no predisposition to transfer the rights of Buenosairean nor the door has opened itself in the direction of any other tax exemption.


In the boisterous market of the NBA, many players they begin change assignments and the clubs catch his first acquisitions, but the Spurs not even is animated to use like currency of change to a baloncestista to which already they have communicated that does not wish to enlist this summer

Oh God. I still think this was the end of the Spurs' compe iveness. They ed this up soooooooooooooooo bad.

Of course they did win in '07, but GSW helped out a TON by knocking out Dallas. But without the Scola epic chicken- ery, we might have had a repeat and maybe another 'ship after that.
