Webber to become Piston

By Detroit Free Press and The Associated Press:

ATLANTA — Chris Webber can't officially become a Piston until after the three-day weekend, but a team source said Friday afternoon a deal was nearly done to bring the Detroit native home.

ESPN.com reported Friday night that Webber would not make a decision about his new team before today, but it still seems likely that by next week, the Pistons will start the former Michigan star alongside Rasheed Wallace, Tayshaun Prince, Richard Hamilton and Chauncey Billups.

Coach Flip Saunders said he couldn't comment on any specifics regarding Webber's decision, but said any team would hope he brings 20 points and 10 rebounds — "what he did last year."

Well no Webber for the Spurs.Moving on with the wish-list.

Since Webber is from the Detroit area I had a feeling he would want to go home....

That's good news for Spurs fans.

Let the sparks fly...Sheed, McDyess, Webber (and Maxiel) all on the same team. Someone is going to be unhappy.

Webber has neer been happy regardless. I don't think it will make a big difference one way or the other to be honest.
