I was curious...is this guy a SF or a G? He's 6'7" and NBA.com lists him as a F - G.

Any chance of us getting him from Portland?

No chance.

Not unless you want to give up Manu or Tony.

I'm guessing Portland has plans for this guy in the future?

The only reason I bring it up was because I was going through the 2005 draft class and saw his name and remembered he had some hype but I never saw much of anything about him this year.

He's a good character guy with upside, so they won't trade him.

He was out of high school so he didn't play much. No chance like everyone said.

I wouldn't be surprised if they move him to the SF spot. He was never much of an athlete and he's big enough to hold his own ala Glen Rice at the wing forward position. With Portland's acquisition of Brandon Roy, I'd bet on it. Roy is just 6-5 and is much more of a SG than Webster is.

Still, I can't imagine either being traded for a minimum of four years. Each was one of the best prep players I've ever seen. Each's upside is very high.

Probably Glen Rice and Paul Pierce potential for each Webster and Roy. Don't know if they'll ever reach that level of play, but that's what their skill set and ability lend to.

Good kid, super nice guy...but he's a tweener. I highly doubt he will make any impact with any team any time anywhere. Decent jump shot, but he isn't super quick, and he isn't that tall.
