Pistons To Sign Webber

It’s not official yet but consider Chris Webber a Piston. The deal was nearly closed a few days ago but got hit with the three day weekend. For Webber, it must be a nice situation to go back home to where he was a major star in his college days with Michigan.
Chris Webber is expected to start for the Pistons together with Rasheed, Billups, Tayshaun and Rip. I guess this means that Rasheed will have to move over to the center position, where he’s spent some time playing in the past. It’s a nice situation to start over and show the world that he can still be helpful to a contending team. It’s going to be easier for him since there’s no pressure for him to produce more than he can since there are others who can assume that load for him. Maybe that will help get his groove back and possibly be closer to the C-Webb of the Kings rather than the disappointing highly paid veteran of the Sixers.
Whatever happens I just hope that he won’t disappoint. He doesn’t deserve to spend the twilight years of his career playing like he did with the Sixers. Hopefully a return back home will motivate him enough to not allow that to happen.
