Sam Smith On Ron Mercer

[Way Of The Ray <wayray@ix.netcom.com>]

I don't know if the sportwriters steal each other's material,
or the rumors are flying around, but Sam Smith says the following:

"Ron Mercer continues to be one of the most available players.
There has beentalk the Celtics would take Jerry Stackhouse from
Detroit or Jamal Mashburn from Miami for him."

Smith in non-Celtics news also mentions the newest Penny Hardaway
trade rumor: Hardaway to Toronto for Doug Christie and the 5th
pick.
