Copelands Last Dance
It seems that this could be Copelands last season in the NBL.
Copes last Season
Everyone saw it coming but, let's hope he can end on a high.

His comments about Heal on the National 10 late sports show last night were pure gold.
I missed it, can you tell us what he said, or at least the general gist of it??
It was something like...
"Shane was telling me im too old, and i was telling him he's too short!"

haha - Heal is nearly 36 himself! NOt exactly a spring chicken.
Copes said Mark Price is very well respected in the US, and that what Heal did is very bad for the standing of Aus Basketball in the US and that Heal has bitten off more than he can chew.
Not mentioned on the TV last night, but equally interesting, a rumour that a few years ago, there was a directive by senior NBA management to NBA teams to look at hiring international players to increase global interest and exposure of the NBA. As someone who just sat on the end of an NBA bench for 3 years, Heal would fit the profile of such a player. As a former 'real' NBA player, Copes of course would have too much class to remind him of that. Especially during a game.. Anyways rumours are just rumours.

I don't think he would have any friends period.
I think he got along with tim duncan? Said duncan was as awesome a person as he is superstar.

Andrew Gaze seems to love him, have you read his book? 95% of it is about either his dad or Heal
Heal said Duncan was an awesome person.. that doesnt mean anything
What does Duncan think of Heal (assuming he knows/remembers Heal), that's the question!
