Re: Bonzi Wells & Chris Webber coming to Detroit?

Bonzi for Murray should be done without hesitation... even if Bonzi was out most of the year with back problems... it's addition by subtraction.... if by chance Bonzi got healthy he could help in the playoffs (like last year).
CWebb's ship has sailed... he jilted Joe when we tried to sign him as a FA... now it's Joes turn to return the favor... and no Cwebb is not a dumb player... on the contrary he has always been solid at recognizing situations and making the right play... exceptional passer... he just has no mobility anymore.

CWebb, doesn't he have one gimpy leg, one nearly useless leg and a huge sense of entitlement?

Sheed got along fine with Bonzi back in Portland, but maybe that is why you need to worry...

Re: Bonzi Wells & Chris Webber coming to Detroit?

Didn't even see C-Webb on the bench tonight in his civis. Have they already told him to stay home like they told AI? No LB sightings either, were they up in luxury box having a cold one and celebrating?

Webber got a little unlucky there. And the penalty for it seems a little disproportionate.

We would have too many bigs better than him though, I will agree with that.
He travelled and panicked, the called atimeout. That's what i saw.

Chris is always hurt. Sheed has how much downtime due to injuries??

When you were watching that game and he started signaling for the time-out, did you realize that they had none left?

Re: Bonzi Wells & Chris Webber coming to Detroit?

Talked about Webber coming to Detroit on NBA radio and the feeling was--Why??? He's the samekind of player but in worse shape than Dyess and won't re-shape his game like Dice has done for us. We already have 'Sheed who can do the inside/outside game and Webber would just sit on the end of the bench pouting about the lack of minutes.

Re: Bonzi Wells & Chris Webber coming to Detroit?

The dude knows that his days are numbered and he just wants to come home..and maybe get that elusive title. He came close at the college level twice and once while with the Kings when the refs gave the WCF title to the Lakers in 2002.

If he works out just to stay in shape, .. he can still sit on the bench and waive to his hometown friends/posse and be ready in the playoffs when Sheed fouls or techs out....

Re: Bonzi Wells & Chris Webber coming to Detroit?

Is Dyess really better at this point?

I have taken the liberty of extrapolating Dyess' stats from 20 minutes to 30 minutes to match Weber's (this year).
Dyess/ Weber

Points- 8.2/ 11.0
Rebs- 8.7/ 8.3
Assists- 1.4/ 3.4
Steals- 0.7/ 1.0
Blocks- .85/ .83

Fouls- 4.6/ 2.0
Turns- 1.5/ 1.8


To me, it looks like Weber is better. Weber is not a great defender, but I don't think Dyess is either at this point. He gives touch fouls like they're going out of style.

I don't care if we get Weber or not, but he isn't total garbage. He'd be pretty cheap after a buyout, right?
