    ``Kirk is a very big piece of this team's foundation,'' John Paxson, the team's executive vice president of basketball operations, said in a statement Monday. ``He is a great leader for our team both on and off the floor and I am very excited to watch him develop.''</div>

    Who here didn't see this coming? To me, it was obvious. Hinrich is an integral part of this organization and their success, and he's going to be kept around even longer once he gets his nice, lucrative contract extension.

    I am really glad they got this wrapped up before the season started, Kirk is going to be a great player in this league, and I am glad he is on the Bulls for many more years to come.

    Kirk is already one of the most promising guards in the league. And over the years he will just get better. This move was not a suprise to anyone but its still a good one.

    GO BULLS!
