Glad that Foster will be with the team for awhile and hope that something gets worked out with Granger.
Wait on Jack. It is preseason, but his 8 turnovers were not a surprise to many in Portland.

Well deserved, Foster is a great guy to have on your team.

It is now being reported that it is a two year add-on. Very nice.

I think 2 year for about 6 million per is a really good deal for the Pacers. I would've been okay with 3 years, but glad we didn't have to add another one on.

I'm very happy to hear about this. First of all, it's great to know that we're going to have a veteran presence on the team a little while longer and a guy who you know what kind of productivity you're going to get every night. Secondly, the fact that Foster even wants to be here during this rebuilding phase we're in speaks volumes of his character (as if we didn't already know he was a stand up guy). He could easily go to a contending team if he wanted to but he's being loyal to us and trying to help us right the ship here. Kudos to everyone involved in this deal.

The same place he was when we acquired him: an expiring contract.

Good news, we got R.Hibbert trainer extended at least for few seasons. Now lets pack Rasho with Tinsley and resign Croshere (lockerroom presnce and we don't need Rasho as our future in 2-3 seasons).

We would have to take on beaucoup salary if we packaged Rasho with Tinsley though, and seeing as how Rasho is expiring after this season, I'd think whoever we got would have to be expiring too (or maybe an extra year to split the difference between Rasho and Tins).

I've been busy, but I have to comment on this.
I love this move, perhaps better than anything else we've done this off-season.
