In 1993 Don Nelson and the Warriors put all their eggs in the Chris Webber basket. They gave up three first round picks to get him, and then loaded his contract with incentives including an opt-out clause.
Nelson desperately needed a center, and he could make Webber play center. Did Webber want to play center for the Warriors? Well, no. But, c’mon, you had an outstanding, strong-willed player, and an outstanding, strong-willed coach teaming up! What could possibly go wrong? Egos colliding in an irreversible explosion with ramifications that lasted for years? Yep. You guessed it. If this beef were on a menu, it’d have three chili peppers next to it.
