OT: Chris Webber to sign with Warriors 

Post#1 » by drsd » Mon Jan 28, 2008 1:07 pm

Chris Webber's unlikely but fast-moving return to the Golden State Warriors is on course to be completed by Tuesday, according to sources close to the negotiations.

Barring an unexpected change of heart, sources said, Webber will accept the invitation from former coach Don Nelson and former teammate Chris Mullin to come back to the team with whom he won NBA Rookie of the Year honors in 1994, only for Webber to force a trade to Washington some six months later when his prickly relationship with Nelson collapsed.

I have no idea why.

They play faster then we do.
let paid professionals do their job, don't you try and do it for them...

Webber sees the W's as a contender, which they aren't really. Maybe they promised him significant minutes.
You look confused...let me fill you in.

He must have got some dollars because there is no way in hell he fits that team.

I'm relieved he went there.I was getting afraid that we will try our chances with his no-defense playing ass.

He must not be concerned with winning a championship. Or Otis really doesnt want him here.

Heard some rumors about how he was repairing his relationship with Don, guess it's working out. I'd wait to react until he actually signs though because that style of play will kill C-Webb. :rofl:
