Player reviews (in alphabetical order): Luis Scola

Luis had a Luis-style season. I.e., he was solid, dependable and durable. He has developed so many inside spin and scoop moves that defenders simply cannot stop him one on one when he gets down low. He carried the Rockets’ post scoring entirely on his shoulders last season and there is no sweeter 16’ – 18’ jump shot in the NBA than Scola’s. I cannot name more than a half-dozen power forwards as good as Luis Scola. If the team includes him in a trade for a superstar, there will be a massive hole in the middle. Don’t do it.
