Right about now, it seems a little silly how much attention everyone gave Chris Webber earlier in the year. Would he or wouldn't he sign with a Greek team? Would he or wouldn't he sign with the Pistons? Would he or wouldn't he return to Oakland? These days, the question has become simply, will he or won't he play a meaningful minute the rest of the season?

According to Don Nelson, it's not likely, and that's even if C-Webb could magically get healthy. From the San Francisco Chronicle:

With Chris Webber (sore left knee) missing his eighth straight game tonight and still nowhere near healthy, even Nelson is saying that Webber might not have a role on the team when - and if - he returns.

"It's get more difficult the longer we go," Nelson said. "We're down the stretch drive now. We'll probably have to play the way we've been playing."

So yeah, C-Webb, a big to-do about nothing (that's not supposed to be a statement about his entire career ... but it kind of fits). He shouldn't feel ashamed, though; just about every team that made a big move at the deadline is treading water at best. But unlike after his semi-successful cameo with the Pistons, this might really signal the end of the line -- not even a crazy Greek owner will throw money at him this summer.
