INDIANAPOLIS (WFIE) -
According to reports, Larry Bird is expected to step down as president of the Indiana Pacers.
TheIndianapolis Star is reporting that team owner Herb Simon will meet with Bird on Tuesday to plan his exit from the team.
Last month, Bird told The Associated Press, he'd stay put as the Pacers team president for a few more years -- if that's what team owner Herb Simon wants.
"I'd do it today if Herbie was here," Bird said last month, drawing laughter.
"We've got kids working out, we've got six free agents, we've got a lot going on right now. Obviously, I want to sit down with Herb as quickly as possible.
I don't like this (questions) at all. I'd like a three-year deal, but we have a handshake agreement. It's hard coming in here and not having the answers."
Bird is walking away after being named NBA Executive of the Year for 2012. The Pacers finished the season with the league's fifth-best record. They ended their playoffs with a competitive East Conference series with the eventual NBA champion Miami Heat.
