There was a guy on the Jim Rome show today who quoted Sacramento's record over the past couple years with and without Webber. Let's just say it was VERY far from flattering to C-Webb. The guy clearly screws up the offensive flow of that team. We all know how the big stars are in the NBA and it will only take so long, losing to Miami in the playoffs most likely, for the love-in with Webber and Iverson and the city of Philly in general, to come crashing down. Both of those guys are ball hogs and there won't be enough time in the game to get those two "their touches" let alone everyone else on the team. I wouldn't want to be the coach of that team right now.
I think you guys have to look at how amazing Sacramento's record has been without Webber since he started to incur injuries over the past couple years and take into consideration WHO won the championship last year. A team virtually full of scrapers and Kenny Thomas, Brian Skinner and Corliss Williamson are scrapers. They do the dirty work and need no glory. I'm not saying the Kings will win a championship now, but they are certainly no worse off without Webber. He never made a series-winning shot in his life. He never will.
