it´ll be nice to watch,but at the same time aint to hard to realize who´s playing better out of the two guys right now.Scola was the Dec.MVP of Euroleague;and most likely will be the MVP of the year too.
The draw of second phase of the euroleague (the top 16) has been announced yesterday.
Scolas' team (Vitoria) and Mahinmi's one (Pau-Horthez) are in the same group (4 groups of four), which means they gonna meet twice.
I suppose it's gonna be more simple for the spurs FO to follow them...
It's a good thing for Mahinmi that Pau is qualified for the top 16, which was not sure at the beginning of the season, cos he's gonna experience the high level in euroleague and will certainly learn in the process.
We'll see if he can continue to progress and play well like he is playing since the beginning of the year and what he can do against Europe top bigs, like Scola, at his still young age.

No way I would compare them right now. Mahinmi is still a prospect, Scola, as you said, a possible MVP.
Still, that will be interesting to see how Mahinmi is doing against the cream of euroleague.
in Spurs Scola would be doing way better than Elson, Oberto, Finley, Horry. He's an instant decent bench player at worst.
No doubt,and that tells you how cheap Holt is,cause the spurs wouldn´t pay Scola´s actual team the reminding of his contract to bring him to the NBA.Stupids
I agree.
I was not thinking at the beginning that he would fit in SA cos of Duncan presence.
But I've seen him play recently and he looked very agressive, defending, rebounding...
He's also a nice touch and he's offensively light year ahead of SA bigs.
With this small ball thing, maybe he could coexist with duncan, with TD playing C.

NBA teams can only pay $500K toward the buyout of a player's contract. So the Spurs couldn't pay Scola's actual team the remainder of his contract.
I know there were some words from either Scola or his agent. Maybe both, but do any of you think that the Spurs, Scola, and his agent can look pass that and have Scola playing for the Spurs next season???
Maybe it's because Spurs didn't need Holt not to be cheap since they were successfull.
With their recent problems, he might change his mind.
so,is the reminding of his contract gonna be low enough to buy it out this off season,or they are gonna have to wait another year?
He's starting at PF by opening night of 07-08 season...book it!
His remaining contract <> the buyout amount.
The buyout is between Scola and his team. I don't have any idea how much that buyout actually is.
I know the Spurs won't offer him a huge contract, but if he can take a reasonable contract from the Spurs and afford to pay his buyout from Tau, then I guess they'd bring him over.
Scola may give up some money but the spurs are gonna have to make it up to him and sign him with a better contract.
Luis is willing to play in NBA, that's for sure. I don't know if there are issues but the presence of Manu and Fabio could certainly help here.
$3,5 M p/year is a decent contract I guess for Scola,considering that He would have to give up some money for the buy out.
yes they can.
Screw this season, Spurs office needs to do the following over the summer:
- get Scola
- sign Nocioni
- sign a backup PG.
- Send Oberto and Beno back to Europe, send Finley to Acapulco
can you just post that at the top so these knuckleheads will quit challenging this issue...?????
.
I seriously doubt that the Spurs are willing to give him $3.5 million a season.
I don't exactly know what his buyout would be but I know Vitoria has kind of locked him when they sign him with a enormous "exit" clause.
It could depend on how Vitoria is doing this year. If they win the euroleague, maybe they will let "gladier" Scola go and realize his dream and ask a bit less money.
hahahahahahah
yeah, threads like get SJAX for Manu are way more intelligent
If the Spurs were to sign Scola and somehow get Nocioni to come that would be too weird. The Spurs would be San Antonio Spurs/Argentina International Team.
Scola can pay a part, of the totality of the buyout.
