People start rumours and try to get rumours to become rumours.
So I don't want to get into all of that stuff. Versace, who has been providing basketball advice to Heisley, is a former head coach of the Pacers. When Versace's name became linked to Heisley a couple of months ago, it was felt that he would likely become general manager. In nine NBA seasons he averaged 15.7 points and shot just over 50 per cent from the field. Heisley, who had his ownership bid approved by the NBA board of governors on Tuesday, is refusing all comment until he closes his deal with Orca Bay.
