Do they have one-and-one situations in the NBA? I don't recall ever seeing
one. Anyways, when did free throw shooting become a measure of All-Star 
status? Does this mean Dana Barros is underpaid? Or that Tim (66% FT) Duncan
is overrated?

Mercer would have a hard time forcing his way to the foul line anyways.
When he learns to beat his man off the dribble, maybe.
