I wouldn't be surprised if he ended up in Cleveland now that Lebron really wants him, but who will they get in return. I can’t see Kidd going to Denver with A.I already there.

From what I've been reading in the Fantasy Basketball Blogosphere, many writers share the same opinion as you--that C-Webb will not produce much in GS and if anything, will take away fantasy numbers from Biedrins and Harrington. I tend to think Webber will fit nicely with this Warriors team. GS is a team that could use a more legitimate, veteran inside presence. I agree that his defense and speed have become an issue and that the Warriors don't really need a guy in the high-post, but there is no debating that when healthy he is a monster on the boards (a statistic GS has been doing poorly in). He also showed us in Detroit that when given the open shot, he can knock it down at a high percentage (~48%). As long as he is truly healthy (I think having missed half of this season could be good for him), I expect him to be a decent fantasy option going forward.
