Webber, O’Brien meet to discuss playing time

Miami — Chris Webber and Philadelphia 76ers coach Jim O’Brien met Monday to clear the air about Webber’s lack of playing time two days earlier against Atlanta.

Webber, recently acquired from Sacramento, played 28 minutes in Philadelphia’s 98-97 victory over Atlanta. He came out with 3:38 left in the third quarter, returned with 3:43 left in the fourth and scored four late points to help the 76ers pull out the victory.

“Chris has a lot of confidence in himself. He knows what he can bring to the table,” O’Brien said.
