Jim O'Brien, now head coach of the Indiana Pacers, has spoken about the rift between himself and Chris Webber when the pair were in Philadelphia, according to the Associated Press.

O'Brien said he could see Webber's unhappiness the moment he arrived in Philadelphia and said the pair clashed from the start.

"He clearly was toward the end of his career," O'Brien said Monday.

"It became very apparent he wasn't going to give the 76ers everything we had hoped for," O'Brien said.

O'Brien added that Webber was never interested in practice or truly committed to the offensive scheme.

"Webber didn't practice at all that year prior to coming to us," O'Brien said. "He didn't practice at all the previous six weeks. I think he was just at the point where he didn't necessarily feel where he was in need of practice, or could practice, or couldn't practice and play at the same time."

"He said, 'Coach, I don't do the low-post thing anymore,"' O'Brien recalled. "We just made a major trade to bring in this 6-11 guy and he said, 'No.' I said, 'Yes, you do."'
