Listen 1st off, I want to win. 2nd off, we have been pretty boring for 2-3 years, I would LOVE an Artest to Detroit trade, even if we give up a rock solid guy like prince who is never injured and plays 40 minutes a game 100 times per year. It would give me a reason to get into the reg season again.

Yeah, I was half-kidding.

That's interesting about Foster... is that just speculation based off Indy being even younger now, or has there been rumblings of some sort around from the media? Either way it'd have legitimacy because of the team's situation.

It's what I've been insisting for a year now, but clearly Bird isn't listening. :wink:

No point in having Foster getting older and his contract coming closer to expiring when your team is grabage. No question he bolts next summer, so get something for him by February at the latest. As a Raptors fan (Donyell Marshall, Mike James and Mo Pete in three consecutive years...), I know what it feels like to lose UFAs. I don't wish that upon Indy.

^ Yeah, I agree.

Indiana fans I see most of them, want to extend Foster 3-4 years.
