But earlier this year there were people saying Weber wasn't one of the best bigs. Weber is such an impressive big. He's fun to watch because of his ability to pass, shoot, and drive. But he was even funner prior to his injuries back when he also had a more vertical game.
I don't know how much longer he'll stick around this league for, but he's been one hell of a player and there is nothing embarassing about getting beat a few times by one of the best at his position in the last 10 years.
Yeah, it's just that he's so atrocious defensively, but his post moves are a thing of beauty. He's a throwback. The hook shot can be deadly if you master it. You just can't block that shot, no matter how good you are defensively. And when you can fake as effectively as Webber can, you're drawing a shitload of fouls.
If he was even decent on the defensive end, he wouldn't be getting shitted on so much.
