Well, if they could trade Walker for a power forward, then neither of
them.
It seems apparent that both Mercer -- because of his excessive contract
demands --
and Walker -- can't be controlled -- are on the outs with Potapitino.

And frankly, I don't expect the Walker situation to become any better. 
Especially if they center the offense around Pierce. This will
absolutely fry
Antoine's ballhoggedy sensibilities and lead to some major league 
acrimony -- as if there isn't a plethora of it already occurring --
between
Il Duce and the Master of the Wiggle.  Fireworks will fly baby....
