The Pacers’ struggles recently are widely documented. They were never great at putting the ball in the hole; now the only time they score is through luck. You would think that they would at least attempt to play Chris Copeland to see if he would help. Offense is the one thing he does well. But no. That makes too much sense. Better keep chugging away with frickin’ Rasual “DNP 1 Turnover” Butler.
He got to play tonight only because coach Vogel had a mental breakdown and “rested” all his starters. Even then he only got in the game in the second quarter. Why did the Pacers pursue this guy so hard if they were just gonna let him rot on the bench?
Even without any of their starters, the Pacers managed to beat the Bucks, the latest in a string of increasingly embarrassing occurrences for Milwaukee. If you couldn’t tell by the title, Chris Copeland hit the game-winning shot, capping off his first good performance of the year. Way to go Chris! You are one clutch mofo!
