Webber is terrible and has been terrible offensively and defensively so far. He isnt doing zhit on offense so far, so to say to leave him in for his offensive threat and to hell with the defense dont make no sense to me. Most of his jumpers are flat and dude is only getting 10 pts a game tops. I'm not blaming everything on Webber but he is who I'm screaming at every single game so far this season. and I have watched every game I not saying this from a standpoint that I'm not watching every game. I watch the entire game and would be in here posting but its usually no one here(but that's besides the point). Bottom line to me Sliccat your saying I'm blaming Webber for everything but Griddy won't even say anything negative or say the obvisous about Webber.

I understand that Webber has been a disappointment so far this year. But it's not his scoring presence that makes him value it's (as Griddy said) his awareness on the offensive and defensive end.
Don't get me wrong here. Cheeks has been playing Webber exactly as much as he should be. But we need to accept that Webber is what he is, and isn't going to change. He's a power foward with limited scoring or defensive ability, but a very good passer, facilitator, and defensive rotator. Until we have better big men than him, and we don't, there's really no reason to be mad at anybody but Billy King. And even then, only if you didn't support the trade originally. Chris Webber is an aging power foward on a broken knee. There just isn't so much we can reasonably expect from him.
