luis scola is a badass Stories - The Dream Shake
More empirical evidence of Luis Scola's badassery
Argentina took on Brazil today in the FIBA World Championship Tournament. One team had Luis Scola. The other did not. The team with Luis Scola - obviously - left as the victor. In the process, Mr. Scola had 37 points (no, not in a row - though that would be more awesome) and a cool 9...
Rockets outlast the Nuggets. And I'm beginning to have a love/hate relationship with Aaron Brooks.
The Rockets win! This time an important game... keeping their fading playoff hopes alive. Kinda like what the Texans do to us every single year, but I digress. But it took a blown 11 point halftime lead... coming back from a double-digit 4th quarter deficit... blowing another lead in the last...
I told you so: Luis Scola is a complete and total badass
The concept of "Luis Landry" may be dead... but one thing remains the same: Luis Scola is a complete and total badass. And I told you so. 44 points, 12 rebounds, 3 assists...... and I do not care that it was against the Nets. Scoring 44 points in an NBA game is not easy. Unless you are Kobe...
An ode to Luis Scola
There seem to be too many distractions in the Rockets' world these days. The Tracy McGrady mess........The difficult holiday schedule.......Chase Budinger returning from injury.........Chuck Hayes' inability to grow 6" taller..........Trevor Ariza's shooting woes (massive...
Memo to our esteemed commenters: Stop trying to (hypothetically) trade away Luis Scola
A very disturbing trend has now reached a breaking point. Over the summer, I saw a few comments/posts with hypothetical trades. Most were for humor purposes. Yet every now and then these trades included Luis Scola going to some other team. Back then, I ignored it and just laughed it off. ...

Free Agency begins: What do we really know about the Houston Rockets?
Free agency begins in a little more than 2 hours. The Rockets only have two players from the '09 roster that are free agents. Crazy Pills and Von Wafer. There is little doubt that in May, I wanted these guys back on the team next year. Sadly, in the weeks since the Game 7 loss to the Lakers......
Maybe I should have bet on the Rockets in Vegas?!?
So I left for Vegas last Wednesday... this time last year the Rockets were having a post-Streak letdown. This year? How about a series of tough, but important, victories over New Orleans, Detroit and San Antonio. Sorry, Minnesota - but the Rockets were expected to beat you. *** Note: Vegas...
Is Luis Scola the Rockets' MVP?
A simple disclaimer before we begin... Luis Scola is my favorite Rocket not named "Yao Ming." That said, I must admit I was a little surprised to see the e-mail I got from the Rockets Insider this morning. Suggesting that Luis Scola has been the best player - or at least the most valuable...
Recap: Rockets 108 - Pistons 105
In his first game back since I wrote that he shouldn't be on the court, Tracy McGrady showed up to the game and looked pretty damn healthy. It wasn't his greatest performance, but he did look very good. Now, if you want to proclaim his resurrection, then you're wrong. He has yet to prove that...
