I don’t get how Luis Scola can be 35 years old and still be this useful. It’s unlikely that he’s able to produce any defense out of his aging body, but the same body that can no longer defend anything resembling an NBA player is also the same body that abuses Chris Bosh with savvy old-man moves. Have we checked his shoulders for needle holes? I get the feeling that some primo Argentine roids are less illegal in Canada than they are in the states.
Fun fact: Scola scored twelve in the first six minutes of this game. I was looking forward to him dropping fifty, or at least thirty, but he probably got tired after all that work early in the game. Old people get tired easily. At least it gave the younger members of his team some time to get their blood flowing before they had to be asked to score. New plan for Toronto: spend the first quarter dumping the ball into Scola, then don’t bother giving him the ball for the rest of the game.
