The classiest fans in the NBA rose to give CWeb a wonderful ovation for all the wonderful memories and playoff runs that we enjoyed during Webb's time in Sacramento. Although I'm not a CWeb fan, I rose up and clapped for what he's done for the franchise. And it was a misty moment to see him wipe his tears away on his jersey while we serenaded him.

But! I am so happy that Geoff Petrie and the front-office got out of his bloated contract and found a sucker to take CWeb's ball-and-chain contract. Just look at the stats from last night's game:

Skinner and Kenny Thomas: Both had double-doubles! Skinner had a career-high 19 boards!

Skinner: 13 pts on 6-11 shooting, 19 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 blocks.
Thomas: 20 pts on 9-20 shooting, 15 rebounds, 4 assists, but 6 turnovers.

Webber: 20 pts on 8-26 shooting, 10 rebounds, 3 assists.

The numbers, in this particular case, reveal the truth of the story: The Sacramento Kings made out like bandits in this trade!! That sound you hear coming from California is not an earthquake, but the sound of raucous, smirking, rip-roaring laughter from Sacramento Kings' fans giddy and gleeful to be rid of CWeb.

I watched "The Contender" for 30 minutes for the first time Sunday night and it's amusing to see the West Coast boxers dominating the East Coast boxers. Same thing happening in the NBA. These things run in cycles, but I'm enjoying the West Coast dominance. Thank you again Billy King!!!

I think the trade work well for both teams. I also glad the fans at ARCO gave Webb a standing O. He deserve it.

Good luck to you, Webb!

The only bad thing about this is sooner or later no one is gonna want to trade with us.

For real. Webber for 3 nobodies, JWill for Bibby, Hedo/Pollard for Brad Miller, etc., etc., etc.

Petrie is the man.

I'm so glad that Billy King got fished in by Petrie! We unloaded CWebb and his monster contract at just the right time.

That's a really good article!!!

Petrie is the Genius in this league.

Does any one else think that this league would be even better if he was the commissioner?? I think so.
