Free-agent forward Chris Webber has narrowed his choices to the Los Angeles Lakers, Orlando Magic and Detroit Pistons, a league executive with knowledge of the negotiations said Thursday night.

man cwebb does this every year like clockwork and in the end he goes to the pistons...same story...

chris webber would fit in nicely. but i'll believe it when i see it.

If this goes through, I hope it's Carlos that we waive.

Surely not the Warlock!

Why would the Magic waive their backup and currently starting PG. I know u hate him but he is the only option at PG with Jameer injured.

Waive Pat! Unless Otis is looking to trade him.

But I don't think C-webb is coming here anyway.

Webber is not coming here, I think the Lakers have the best shot, cosidering how they are playing plus the injuries they have had to pf/c

I think at one time he considered us a possible option but then Otis prolly told him he " was happy with the current team"

also I believe I read somewhere that detroit wasn't considering him anymore but don't know where, I could be wrong on that one

Who is the bigger tease? Webber or Fran?

well if you would have asked me last week of those 3, i'd say Lakers, but, considering that Bynum went down, sure the Lakers could use you, but why would Webber go? I think he really wants to play next to Dwight...and Detroit is done with Webber, I think...

I really don't think he's going back to Detroit. But didn't Otis said he's not interested in Webber or PJ Brown in the O-Sen this week?

I wish...

Perfect scenario: We sign Webber and use this lineup:

PG - Nelson
SG - Hedo
SF - Lewis
PF - Webber
C - Dwight

And we cut Dooling.

It's either Detroit or Lakers.

They are actual contenders in their Conferences.

I don't care how bad we've been doing lately, we're still contenders in the East... it would take a lot for us not to be.

Jesus!

I think most fans agree that we have problems with the current roster.

I also believe that no matter who we add there is no guarantee it will help.

But wouldn't you want to do something. Otis makes it sound like we are good enough as we are, and need no big changes. Thats Bu!! $#!t.

I would rather fail a change, then make no change at all.

Otis already said that he wasn't interested in Weber. I think we should sign him if we could get him, but Otis isn't interested - I think we need a PF

I really don't think Detroit wants him back.....they are playing so well right now without him. They have no reason for him.

The lakers are the best solution for him, I believe they still have a roster spot open and they are now weak at PF/C.

With that said, I would welcome him here in a heart beat. The worst case scenario is that we cut him.

Why do you think this?? Just your opinion or you read something, just curious

Why would we cut Dooling? why not Garrity or Augustine

Even though this seems to happen all the time. I cant help but feel like maybe he is going to choose us. With LA you factor in the Bynum injury and the fact they are not good enough to win the West. With Detroit he would have a great chance at going to the Finals, but do the Pistons want him back? I cant really get a read on that siuation. If he comes here he gets to play with Dwight. He would have a legit shot at earning a starters role. And if he played at a decent 10/5 or higher level he could really help us out.

If he is willing to come here I say sign him. We having a huge hole at the position he plays and he could help the offense flow better. Hes an excellent passer for a big man and would allow Hedo to come off the bench.

He is probably going to LA though.
