Attention Warriors fans!! The Warriors are still good, currently holding the solid 7th slot in the Western Conference. Will the run-n-gun Warriors make the playoffs again and create another Cinderella run? We have to wait until the end of the season for that. However, remember the good old days in the 1990s when the Warriors dominated? Remember the Rookie of the Year Chris Webber and the younger-looking coach Don Nelson? Chris Webber may be sitting at home enjoying his NBA Live 2008, and Donnie might have gained a few more wrinkles, but remember the above picture when Chris Webber would be coming into NBA games off the Warriors bench? Well, nostalgia better kick in, because this will become reality! The ESPN has reported that Don Nelson is bringing back Chris Webber to the Bay Area! It's a done deal! Their history aside, could Chris Webber help bring back memories of the goodness gracious oh-so-perfect Run TMC days?!?!

Now, Chris Webber may not be the T or the M or the C, so what is Chris Webber?
Let's look at the situation deeper. The Warriors are seriously pushing for the playoffs. The Warriors are no joke. Take that, the rest of the NBA! But, what are some of the Warriors' weakest links? No questions asked, the answer would be the BENCH! The Warriors have no bench players. They basically run a 8-man rotation night-in and night-out. Sooner or later, both Baron Davis and Monta Ellis would get tired of playing 40+ minutes a night.

Weakest link #2: SIZE. Nobody would want to mess with Captain Jack, 'cause they know what will happen. Remember Palace of Auburn Hills, November 19, 2004? However, Stephen Jackson guarding Dirk Nowitzki may work for a night or two, but these guys are playing in the NBA--Nothing But Adjustments!! The Warriors can't stay small forever. They can't rely on Andris Biedrins and Al Harrington to take on all the big fellas in the wild wild west!
What does Chris Webber bring to the table? Webber provides both SIZE and a player off the BENCH!! Plus, he brings over veteran experience and leadership after playing 14 years in the league, not to mention playoff experience, after helping lead the Sacramento Kings to the conference finals in 2002. Playoffs, did I mention playoffs? That is exactly what the Warriors are looking for!!
In conclusion,
CHRIS WEBBER + GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS = Happy Days in Oak-town! :)
