I like him. I've always thought his defense was pretty solid and he's a good three point shooter. Maybe his defense isn't as good as Pietrus', although Pietrus' defense isn't worthy of its reputation either, but he's a more consistent shooter who thankfully doesn't take extremely difficult step back threes. Injuries have set back his career so far but I still think he has a run of being a valuable role player within him.
It turns out he's also a cousin of Terry. He's been linked to the Clippers but if the Celtics express interest, maybe the family connection will sway him. I'm not holding out much hope though.
It's ironic after sticking in the NBA better than Gerald Green, his high school counterpart in the 2005 draft, it's Green who has signed a long term deal this offseason.
It continues to amaze me that Webster was compared to Pierce in high school. That one did die pretty fast but it's standard practice to drop a Pierce comp on highly thought of wings who can shoot but are nevertheless considered average athletes.
