Posted: August 6, 2008

A Indiana Pacers co-owner Herb Simon is on the same page as his team president, general manager and coach when it comes to embattled Jamaal Tinsley: The point guard's time with the franchise is over.

Simon, who owns the team with his older brother Mel, is so sure the Pacers will trade Tinsley, he discounted other scenarios.

Simon also discussed:

Offseason roster makeover
Sagging ticket sales
Shawne Williams' latest incident

I read this early this morning off of Hoopshype and it is worth the read IMO.

What's this Herb Simon doing his Mr Obvious impression. We just need to make the other teams understand that we are prepared to go into the season with jt sitting rather than bought out.

This seems like common knowledge now. The sooner the better for this trade.

It is common knowledge. I found it worth the read for the reaffirmation on the Tinsley situation and the slumping ticket sales. Perhaps that means I will get to see my first live game this season at a pretty decent discount...

they are selling regular single game tickets for season ticket holder prices. I bought about 8 Sunday games I believ. Since I cant see them on FSN. Some good games too. Also bought the season opner against Boston.
