I know there's no way, but I'd love to know who Pitino wanted...who he
thought he was going to get for Mercer. I wonder what his trade value is
right now. I think that's a tough call...but....I'm even less sure about
Pitino's ability to get something decent for him. This could be a "trade
and groan" move. We'll see. I'm still not fully sold on Pierce, but....
