Chris Webber, sensing the vast and painful void in the NBA created by his prolonged absence to start the season, told a Sacramento TV reporter Sunday he'll sign a contract within days and be back on the court within two weeks. Webber said he hadn't made any firm decision on where he would resume his NBA career, but the 16-year veteran said he had fielded offers from several NBA clubs and had narrowed his choices down to three teams. Webber declined to name the teams he was considering.Any guesses? Detroit and Dallas are the easy ones. Boston? The Lakers? (First Mitch, now C-Webb? Noooo!) The Magic? New Jersey? The world is Webb's oyster; sadly, at his age, I'm not sure the pearl's still in there.
For what it's worth: ESPN's J.A. Adande called this in December, and mentioned the Pistons, Lakers, Celtics and Heat. Methinks one of those teams has dropped out of the bidding.

NBA teams all have new talent and don't need some one like Webber that can't jump or run but can make passes, if some one does sign him he'll spend more time on the bench then on the court. He's not the kind of role model I'd want for young players.
