"front office role" is misleading. He's back as the GM of the pacers, some just "some front office role"

Kevin Pritchard is currently GM of the Pacers, and will remain so, according to the article.

Bird is probably VP of Basketball Operations, or some such.

Part of me has always wanted Larry back in Boston, but second best is the way he's worked with the Pacers.
