After 13 years, Chris Webber is back with the team he started his NBA career with,the Golden State Warriors.  Personally, I like the move for the struggling Warriors who are in desperate need of a low post player to complement all of their great guards and small forwards.  This is not a move that suddenly makes the Warriors title contenders, but it will help them sneak into the playoffs for another year.  Webber is not the same MVP caliber, 20+ ppg player he was while playing for the Sacramento Kings, but he can still provide a solid 20-25 minutes per game in the low post and runs the floor very well.  

I do not think the rift that existed between coach Don Nelson and Webber 13 years ago, will be an issue.  Both have made it clear its not an issue and I expect them to get along just fine.   The media has simply made too big of a deal of this issue.  It is not as if PJ Carlisimo is bringing back Latrell Sprewell back.  Now, that would be a great story.
