An article from the Rockets website talking about the most underappreciated, underrated player in the game: Luis Scola!

Great showing by Luis at the FIBA Americas tournament. I really think that he's going to step up to the role of team leader this season, leading to "experts" around the country talking about "how they always liked the guy" and fans wondering where he came from.

Oh...and about a million threads on the trade board trying to lowball the Rockets.

Money quote from Rockets' Rosas:
"And we’ve also expressed to him that now is the stage in his career with our team that he can step up and express more of his thoughts and feelings about what our players have to do..."

Looking good for this season.
