Larry Bird again denied reports that he will leave the Pacers at the end of the season.

Ken Berger of CBSSports.com reported Thursday that Bird has told “several friends in the NBA that he’s decided to leave” and that he wants owner Herb Simon to start planning for him to step away at the end of the season.

“Once again, no decision has been made,” Bird said by phone Thursday evening. “I’ll sit down with my owner at the end of the season and we’ll talk about things.”
