Scola shines on Tau´s win vs. Pau Orthez

[ArgSpursFan]

That's why Scola will be the #1 most productive rebounder in the NBA if he plays next season, right?

Well,For what I´ve been seeing from Other Argentinians in the NBA,like Ginobili,Nocioni,Delfino and herrmann I have no doubt in my mind.
Reason why is they bring to the court something I don´t see often in NBA.That would be¨BIG BALLS AND HEART¨,besides the other good things they bring to the table.
So,yes he will.

[ArgSpursFan]

Exactly, equating FIBA with the NBA is very overrated. It's a different game just as you said, and doing well in one doesn't mean you'll do well in the other.

that´s right.YOU SAID IT FINALLY.
the diference is that NBA is easier tham FIBA for players to shine as individuals,FIBA is all about team work.
We finally agreed on something Chump.This is a special day.

You have no doubt in your mind that Scola will be the #1 most productive rebounder in the NBA because other Argentinians have played in the NBA and have not been the #1 most productive rebounders in the NBA.

So,yes he will.

Do you stand by that statement?

[ChumpDumper]

that´s right.YOU SAID IT FINALLY.

I've said it all along. You just caught a clue for once. A special day indeed.

well,in Indi 2002 , Athens and Japan the US played with NBA talent.
Lebron,Carmelo,Jarmine,TD,Arenas,etc,etc,etc,
and they got busted.
yeap,you are right FIBA is ¨too overrated¨

tiene razon Aikita, te pasaste a caca loco. una cosa es tenerle fe a los nuestros, otra cosa es actuar como el representante y ponerte a vender los jugadores, mas encima con argumentos pobres. Como si estos gringos fueran los que hacen los fichajes! Primero que nada, te advierto que hay varios gringos aqui que se dedican a llevar la contra en argumentos, y les encanta agarrar algun fanatico que argumenta con el corazon en vez de la cabeza. te estan dejando en ridiculo. y ademas, les estas regalando todos los argumentos con las boludeces que dices. el otro dia acusaste a un puerto riqueño mestizo de racista, ahora citas partidos en atenas cuando fueron en el mundial del 02, y ademas demuestras que no entiendes para nada los contratos de la NBA. vos entendes que si Scola viene, que le va costar adaptarse, que no va tener el mismo protagonismo que en europa? acaso crees que para manu y chapu fue facil llegar a donde estan ahora? quieres que san antonio contrate a magnano, pepe, y el chapu y se convierta en la seleccion argentina? dejate de joder hermano, estas hablando por el culo.

al final sos mas arrogante y mas cerrado que los gringos que acusas de soberbios.

The only Argentina´s Big guy In NBA is Oberto,and Like I said before and manu people thinks Oberto is not even half of a good player Scola is.
So,yes,I stand by what I´ve said.
BTW,it´s easier the transition from FIBA to NBA tham from NBA to FIBA.

[ChumpDumper]

BTW, Spanish isn't a secret code on these boards for us gringos.

It's Slovenian.

[ChumpDumper]

Half the rebounder?

So,yes,I stand by what I´ve said.

I would listen to your code-writing friend in this instance.

BTW,it´s easier the transition from FIBA to NBA tham from NBA to FIBA.

Really? Why is Marcus Fizer putting up almost identical numbers to Scola in his first year in the ACB, numbers that are higher than he ever got in the NBA?

me gustaria saber cuanto hace q seguis la NBA,por mi parte la sigo desde el 84,no desde q Argentinos llegaron a la NBA.Y aparte si me equivoco en nombrar un partido q fue en el mudial,con respecto a uno de olimpiada,lo hago porque no estoy fijandome las estadisticas y las fechas exactas de los partidos en otras paginas de internet.Y si no te gusta no leas lo que tengo q decir.
Aparte a mi no me molesta q me lleven la contra y no es mi intencion agrandar a nadie,al contrario si fuera por mi Oberto se podria ir a vivir a Cordoba en este momento y dejar de dar lastima en la NBA.
Asi que si no te molesta dejame de romper las pelotas .
y si te molesta tanto lo q digo nos sacamos la bronca y listo.Yo vivo en Orlando 6 meses y 6 meses en Arg,asi que decime donde estas asi te rompo el alma y nos sacamos la bronca,ok?

[diego]

solo te advierto que estas dando lastima, por lo mal que escribes en ingles pense que seria por un problema de comunicacion pero por lo visto sos 100% boludo en ambos idiomas.

y vivo en santiago de chile, cuando quieras veni para aca macho, si no te aviso la proxima vez que voy a Bs As.

I'm not trying to hide anything by writing in spanish, just thought the basketball genius might understand it better. unfortunately he's just as idiotic in spanish as he is in english.

one game against pau orthez is a blip in scola's career. I also think he is one of the spurs best assets, be it as a tradebait or as a reinforcement, but have already said my piece and think that this summer the FO will use him as one or the other in order to improve the team.

but please ArgSpursFan, continue to enlighten all us ignorant fools with your knowledge of basketball and contracts, at least you are providing cheap entertainment

Just to your ¨knowlegde¨,Scola isn´t coming to the NBA unless He gets paid more tham what he really worths,cause of his Buy out with TAU Ceramica.And that´s been the issue discussed in this forum for a while.It´s not that he worths 3M p/year in his roockie season,it´s just that he needs to overcome the issue of buying out the reminding of his contract.
Chileno wevon!!!!de me decis q sos Argento vo Wevon??

I thought you were trying to spare him some embarrassment.

I also think he could help. I just happen to think he is overhyped and that he isn't the only option going forward.

you forgot to mention that you called the US guys in the forum: ing Gringos who think they know everything and Wanna downplay everybody.(you can actually translate the whole statement )

Just for the record,i just wanna say that I may think diferent sometimes,or just have a diferent point of view tham some people here.but I try to respect everyone and at the same time wanna be respected.

[ChumpDumper]

I did. That's a fair assessment.

[ArgSpursFan]

I did. That's a fair assessment.

I wasn´t actually talking about you.
I know how you are,so I didn´t even think about you.
I just don´t want other people geting disrespected.(not you)

I don't see the point of your statements.
We all know who is who around here. Are u playing the tourist guide role? Devil's advocate?
BTW...your Spanish is atrocious. What's your excuse?

[Kori Ellis]

....
Just for the record,i just wanna say that I may think diferent sometimes,or just have a diferent point of view tham some people here.but I try to respect everyone and at the same time wanna be respected.

You don't try to respect anyone. You refer to several people as "boy" when you talk to them.

[SequSpur]

what is english to hard to ask for? .

[Cherry]

No respetás a nadie = you have no repect.

[ArgSpursFan]

You don't try to respect anyone. You refer to several people as "boy" when you talk to them.

That´s your opinion.and I don´t think to call BOY somebody is a bad thing.I´ve been called by worst things in here,while YOU,being the moderator ,have been playing the ¨nothing happened here¨game when one of your ¨friends¨says something to me or to anybody else in here in a bad way,but When I say something I´m the bad guy,huh?

[ChumpDumper]

You're a bad boy, boy.

[ArgSpursFan]

You're a bad boy, boy.

At least I AM A BOY,who stands by what he says.
Girl!(is that make you feel any better now?)

Nah, you said "whatever" three times and then finally embraced your claim that Scola will rebound at a rate of 19.76 per 48 minutes in the NBA when he rebounded at a rate of 9.95 per 48 minutes in the Euroleague regular season.

That speaks for itself.

That you now stand by it after having the chance to consider how ridiculous a prediction it was also speaks for itself.

Finally your trying to say it's only the FIBA rules that are holding him back from effectively doubling his rebounding productivity and becoming the next Dennis Rodman on the boards says it all.

[AFBlue]

I leave for 16 hours and this is what the Scola debate devolves into? Back to the topic, NBAtv replayed Tau's first round game versus Maccabi, so I got to see Scola in action some more. I see where some of the questions about his game come from, but overall it didn't make me change my thoughts on whether he should be brought over next year.

I know,that´s why my threads are so contructive.(9 pages already)
BTW,Good to see you back Tony(I´m trying to be more polite now)
