Pacers, Jamaal Tinsley Finally Part Ways

by Matt WatsonIt's been 16 months since Jamaal Tinsley last took the court for the Indiana Pacers, but it wasn't until Wednesday that the two sides finally agreed to sever ties, coming to terms on a buyout that will make him an unrestricted free agent once he officially clears waivers later this week. Tinsley spent the last year and a half in limbo, not quite suspended but simply unwelcome to participate in team activities, as Larry Bird desperately tried to repair his team's image by ridding the roster of malcontents and troublemakers. (Tinsley's brushes with the law include participating in a barroom brawl and being the target of drive-by shooters.)Pacers, Jamaal Tinsley Finally Part Ways originally appeared on Fanhouse NBA Blog on Thu, 23 Jul 2009 04:10:00 EDT .
