Now this could be the real reason why we didn't sign him, not the last part of what you said, but he could have demanded the ball more like Kukoc when he took the last shot and Pippen sulked on the bench in dismay when he hit the big shot for Chicago over Anthony Mason.
Mind you i'm not saying he's (Copeland) is as good as Tony Kukoc
That's not quite the same situation though. Phil Jackson gave Kukoc the ball, Kukoc didn't demand it. And besides, I never saw Copeland making any demands.
Now the joy of my world is in Zion
How beautiful if nothing more
Than to wait at Zion's door
I've never been in love like this before
Now let me pray to keep you from
The perils that will surely come
