Not just our optimism, but the team grew to depend on him too much! He 
is a rookie, no matter how good he is, and they shouldn't expect him to 
score 20 a night.  I hope that, now that Mercer seems to be at 99%, they 
bring Pierce back from his ankle slowly.  Maybe having him come off the 
bench for a couple of weeks, just to let him build his confidence back 
up.
