Tweets of the Night: Pacers vs. Wizards
By Jalen Bishop
The Pacers played the Wizards tonight… let’s recap the game through tweets.
1ST QUARTER
Stay woke. RT @Pacers: The #Pacers starting lineup at Washington:
— 8 Points, 9 Seconds (@8pts9secs) November 6, 2014
Donald Sloan
C.J. Miles
Solomon Hill
Luis Scola
Roy Hibbert
#StayWokeYall
Love Doug Collins...but he's wrong. Hibbert isn't the key - he's been great so far. The key is the other seven guys that have been awful.

Hibbert has done well scoring in the post and rebounding with West out.
Two early turnovers by the #Pacers. First, a travel. Now a bad pass. #Wizards up 7-2

CJ Miles might not make the All-Star team.

Update.
#Pacers best ball movement comes after a reset. Mahinmi grabs the O reb that sets up four passes and a Copeland 3
— Candace Buckner (@CandaceDBuckner) November 6, 2014
Great possession. 18-18. 2 minutes left.
Wizards should probably guard people outside the line
— Bullets Forever (@BulletsForever) November 6, 2014
Pacers are 4-of-9 behind the arc. 24-24 end of first.
2ND QUARTER
Copeland has come off of the #Pacers' bench to score 10 points, and he also has 4 rebounds and 3 assists. IND 31, WAS 28
— Indiana Pacers (@Pacers) November 6, 2014
Don’t trade him!
This team, right now, is bad enough to lose 55 games. But they won't tank. Too much pride in the entire organization from top to bottom.
— Jon Washburn (@DeanOfMortgages) November 6, 2014
37-32 Indiana.
39-37 Wizards.
#Wizards head to the half up 46-41 over #Pacers #WizPacers https://t.co/Ykt7C6dAPM

Sloan: 11pts/4rebs/3asts. Copeland: 10pts/7rebs/3asts
3RD QUARTER
This man is just not a human being with some of these passes
— Bullets Forever (@BulletsForever) November 6, 2014
Everybody do the John Wall! 53-42 Wizards.
Donald Sloan has six made FGs, the other four starters have six total.
— Candace Buckner (@CandaceDBuckner) November 6, 2014
Ouch.

Here we go. One more.
4TH QUARTER
Out of the timeout, Mahinmi gets stuck with the ball up top and throws it away. 14 turnovers for the #Pacers
— Candace Buckner (@CandaceDBuckner) November 6, 2014
Great sequence there. Ian with the rejection, and Solo finishes a layup on the other end. #Pacers within five, mid-4th Qtr.
— Scott Agness (@ScottAgness) November 6, 2014
74-70 Wiz.
Crazy stats here. Both teams 27 of 45. Both have made 7 3-pters. But the difference? #Wiz are 14-14 @ the FT line. #Pacers have missed 3 FTs
— Candace Buckner (@CandaceDBuckner) November 6, 2014
Copeland for 3! He's tied the game with 4:00 to play. #Pacers 77, Wizards 77
— Indiana Pacers (@Pacers) November 6, 2014
Copeland is 7-of-16 from the field at this point.
Cope delivers one of those 'Lance-like' bonehead plays Vogel mentioned last week.
— Tom Lewis (@IndyCornrows) November 6, 2014
Oops.
Donald Sloan for Rondo. Who says no?
— Jon Washburn (@DeanOfMortgages) November 6, 2014
Bill Simmons? 84-82 Wiz.
David West owning the huddle. Great stuff going on during this timeout. #Leadership
— Scott Agness (@ScottAgness) November 6, 2014
Can’t wait to see him back.
DON Sloan making offers Pacers fans cannot refuse.
— 8 Points, 9 Seconds (@8pts9secs) November 6, 2014
What an amazing game. We’re off to overtime.
OVERTIME
@8pts9secs Sloan for Lebron, who says no first?
— DrWorms (@DrWorms) November 6, 2014
John Wall with three straight buckets here in OT. He has 30 for the game and #Wiz lead 93-88 with 2:16 remaining
— Candace Buckner (@CandaceDBuckner) November 6, 2014
It was a good fight.
Agree.
Donald Sloan now has more points (31) than the legitimate star, John Wall (30)
— Candace Buckner (@CandaceDBuckner) November 6, 2014
Whew.
I've irrationally loved a lot of different Pacers in my life. But boy, the fight that Donald Sloan plays with has him rising the charts fast
— Jon Washburn (@DeanOfMortgages) November 6, 2014
That’s a final. 96-94 Wizards.
