    Pacers president Larry Bird finally watched his team return to the playoffs this season.

    He'll soon know whether he'll get to complete his rebuilding project.

    Bird is in the final year of his contract and owner Herb Simon said Friday that they will meet in the next 10 days to discuss Bird's status. Either they will agree on an extension, or the franchise will part ways with one of the state's greatest hoops heroes.

    "My decision will be based on my decision with Mr. Simon," Bird said. "If I like what I hear, I'll probably be back. But if there's some things he sees in the job performance I did and he's not comfortable with it, it might be time for a new voice."
