The Knicks will sign Chris Webber. In other news, Mets shortstop Rey Ordonez lifted his batting average to over .340 by slamming his 36th homer of the season last night. In world news, the Tooth Fairy has checked out of the Betty Ford Clinic.

Marc Berman of the New York Post writes that the Knicks begin "The Summer of CWebb" as longshots to land the power forward. Webber is heading to Michigan today. Not to meet with the Pistons, but rather to meet with his father to lay out a battle plan.

Complicating matters is Allan Houston. They have to be careful not to slight him in the process. Reportedly, Jerry Stackhouse has said that he would gladly slide to small forward if Houston signed with the Pistons.
