LUIS SCOLA RUMORS & GOSSIP

Luis Scola's dunk attempt fails miserably (Video)

Houston Rockets forward Luis Scola recently tried to do something that he had not done all season: he attempted a dunk. During Sunday night's game against the Sacramento Kings, the Rockets found themselves on a 4-on-1 fast break near the end of the first half. Rockets guard Courtney Lee passed it to Scola, who decided to attempt a one-handed dunk over Kings center DeMarcus...

Luis Scola Nearly Posterizes DeMarcus Cousins

You know it’s a laugher when Luis Scola’s trying to posterize people. The Rockets certainly did trounce the Kings on Sunday evening, never trailing and leading by as many as 22 before going on to take it 104-87.  Just before halftime, and much to the amusement of his teammates, the not-so-high-flying Scola attempted to finish one of Houston’s many fast breaks with...

NBA Trade Rumors: Lakers, Rockets Won’t Do Pau Gasol Deal

The Houston Rockets thought they had gotten Pau Gasol back in early December before the NBA vetoed the blockbuster Chris Paul trade. Since that time the Rockets have kept in touch with the Los Angeles Lakers regarding the four-time All-Star and would still like to get him. The problem for Houston is that the Lakers aren’t interested in any of the pieces they can offer except point...

Kevin Love steps on Luis Scola’s face

There's two types of players in the NBA, there's players who fight for every inch on defense and offense, and then theirs players who fall on the ground, begging for fouls, every time they feel a little contact. Luis Scola's like a girl who insults herself and then desperately looks up waiting for someone to compliment her. He looks like a floppy c*ck out there. On...

Love calls stepping on Scola on accident

MINNEAPOLIS Video replays can't show intent, but Timberwolves forward Kevin Love claims it wasn't intentional when he stepped on Rockets forward Luis Scola's face early in the third quarter of Minnesota's 100-91 win Saturday.

Luis Scola Nails Kevin Love in the Junk With a Basketball, aka His “Love Stomach”

Whilst trying to save a ball from going out of bounds during Monday’s Houston-Minnesota game, Luis Scola accidentally hit T-Wolves forward Kevin Love right in the bean bag with the ball, sending Love to the floor in obvious pain. I’m not sure what’s funnier—Love getting nailed in the groin with a basketball, or the announcer referring to the fallen Minnesota...

Scola on non-trade: 'It's funny'

HOUSTON -- Luis Scola reacted pretty much like everybody else did to the NBA's Great Non-Trade of 2011. "It's funny," Scola said Friday. "At some point, yesterday was kind of funny." This was remarkable, because the Rockets forward was a living component of that trade, a three-way deal hinging on Chris Paul that did not end up sending him to the New...
