The only explanation I can come up with for Chris Webber's comments on Mike & Mike this morning is he must be high, which, from what I've heard, wouldn't be all that crazy before noon on a Tuesday morning.
Webber went on ESPN radio to talk about the Final Four and his criticism of Willie Cauley-Stein has Big Blue Nation up in arms. The former Michigan Wolverine said Cauley-Stein will never start in the NBA and shot down any chance he could be a DeAndre Jordan-type player in the league.

"This kid is like seven-foot and weighs two hundred," C-Webb continued. "He won’t start in the league. You can’t play in the league if you can’t score, people."
Webber defended his comments on Twitter shortly after the show:
