Janny Hu of the SF Chronicle is reporting Chris Webber will announce his retirement after 15 seasons in the NBA at a press conference tomorrow morning at 10am.
Regardless of his production (or lack of) on the hardwood for the Dubs, it sounds like the move to bring C-Webb back to Oakland has been productive and emotional healing for he and Nelson.

Chris Webber - A Promise Unkept
Throughout his 15-year tenure in the the NBA, we never got to see that rare combination of power and finesse sustain for an extended period. But more than that, we never got to see redemption from the public immaturity; the perception that he was a gifted and privileged athlete, prone to acting out his own image.
TOO LITTLE -TOO LATE-Stu Jackson Said Foul Was on Fisher
Thanks a lot Stu. Monta Ellis will be happy to hear that.
""We did review," Jackson said Tuesday. "The call was incorrect.
"After looking at the play, the foul was on Fisher and not Ellis. It appeared that Fisher pulled Ellis down."
Jackson said the league informed the Warriors of its analysis. Delaney was also informed, though Jackson kept the...

Sadly, Wrongly Called Timeout To Be Webber's Legacy
Chris Webber, it's reported, is set to retire today. The shadow of his blunder 15 Marches ago outlasted him after all.
The timeout Webber called in the 1993 NCAA Final -- a timeout his Michigan team didn't have -- in the waning moments against North Carolina just won't go away. Not that it should, but it's now filed in the Bill Buckner category of sports blunders...
An Emotional Return and Torturous Chase
It was an unbelievably emotional day for the Denver Nuggets and their fan-base around the world. During the Nuggets' 118-105 much needed victory over the slipping, Nowitzki-less Mavericks, Nene made his return to the court.
Nene had been out since January 11th with a malignant form of Testicular Cancer. Fortunately for the big Brazilian, the doctors found the cancerous tumor...
Chris Webber Hanging Up His Kicks
Growing up in the D.C. Metropolitan-area, the main lingering memory I have of C-Webb is when the Washington Bullets mistakingly traded him to Sacramento for Mitch Richmond and Otis Thorpe, instead of Juwan Howard. No disrespect to Howard, who had his best NBA years in D.C., but C-Webb has Hall of Fame numbers and was much more exciting to watch.
If You Are Up the Superman, Do Not Pit the Warriors and the Lakers Against Each Other\
Screw an introduction, screw feelings, screw keeping it politically correct. Fuck that last call. 4 seconds left and you call a fucking offensive foul?? I don't even care if the call was legitimate, unless Fischer is on the ground crying and Monte Ellis hits the game winner you don't make that call....
