I don't expect Tinsley to be bought out.....the Simons nor the Pacers have the resources to leave a $21 mil contract on the books for a player that is bought out.

I expect and hope that Tinsley will be traded somehow as long as it's for a player that is not useless....like Jared Jeffries ( as many have said ) or even Dan Gadzuric from the Bucks....trade a bad contract for a bad contract as long as the player we get back can help us.

...or at least not repeatedly jab us in the eye with a sharp stick.
I have no idea what you're talking about, and clearly, neither do you.

Cut him? Man. If I was the Heat GM I'd offer up Mark Blount if Indy was simply just looking to shed a year of salary. No question.

Tinsely is still a good player. He just has had problems staying healthy. Change of scnerey might do good though.

Yeah, I'm buying too. Hell, that S. Stick guy that Count mentioned earlier would have been good enough for me, as long as his contract is up sooner than Tinsley's.

LOL, wow ya'll how that low of regard for Tinsley nowadays?

It is simply the tiring of him only playing only 50 something odd games every year, or is his play on the court actually sucking?

I could've swore he was playing real well early in the year.

He was he put up some really great numbers if he had stayed healthy he'd be a hot commodity right now. But he is the face of our franchise problems to most fans, can't stay healthy and gets in trouble to much. So we want him gone as an example of the direction we are taking to help bring back the fans, so moms and dads don't say, "I don't want my kid idolizing some thug."

So if you know anyone at the Heat front office tell them the deal is good and we're waiting by the phone. :nod:
