        I must agree about Mercer.  Van Horn appears to be more developed 
in the "create your own shot department."

     I have to disagree -- although I don't think you can go wrong
          with Mercer or Van Horn. Mercer is adept at creating his own
          shot and moves without the ball well. Again, either of these
          players would be a huge asset, but there's no reason not to
          like Mercer.
