I have to go with the Mercer side. Some forget in college it was Ron Mercer 
that stepped up as a freshman when Kentucky won it all.  A.W's is too cocky 
and hasn't proven he deserves to be.  Anyone can score 20 shooting 20 shots 
 game.  He shoots something hideous like 65% from the free throw line, 
which it doesn't take a John Wooden to figure out who to foul in close 
games,  28% on 3's, and barely 40% on FG% when he gets a lot of inside 
shots.  Compare him to a Malone & Vin Baker at a 53- 54% clip.

Did anyone see him do the wiggle later in the game against Houston after 
hitting a 3 when we were still losing ?  He makes one 3 and thinks he's 
Michael Jordan.
