Webber is still a great player. You're right when you say that the Kings are still good, but Webber was an icon there. I personally don't like the trade. I think the Kings could have gotten more for him.

Brad Miller is good, but I'd rather have Chris Webber on my team

Which is exactly why you're not an NBA GM, and if you were, you'd be fired.

Chris Webber is overrated. Simple as that. His salary is ridiculous, and he is CONSTANTLY injured. I remember actually laughing a couple years back when they were playing the Lakers, and he was out practically the whole season, and then just when they're about to lose, he goes down again with an injury. I don't get how anyone can say he's an ICON when he hasn't played a full season in like 4 years. Brad Miller should have been up for MVP last year, he averaged nearly a triple double a game, he rarely misses shot, hes plays hard everynight, and he isn't a media or salary problem.

I'm not disagreeing that he's good and puts should have been an MVP candidate, but Webber puts more people in the stands. THat's one of the reasons why I'd rather have him on my team
