Shooting 3 is one ascpect of the game that Mercer is not good at but he has
good range and form to drain the 15-18 footer with some consistency. I can't
belive how some on this list have soured on him.I thought after the first
exhibition most on the list  thought that he was "all world", and how it
should be him and not Walker who should be the captain. I like Mercer as a
player, he has great talent and let's atleast wait for him to get healthy. -
