Re: Mercer worth gamble Issel took in trade

["Jim Meninno" <jim_meninno@hotmail.com>]

He also "gets to the hole" (sure, on the fast break, or in Antoine's 
bedroom, but not in traffic) and is a "better outside shooter than people 
realize" (well, outside 15 feet, but inside 20).

Do they have videotape in Denver?  Has Issell seen Ron play? And, the best 
part is that they think they are the ones who pulled off a steal on a 
desperate franchise!  Isn't it great to have an organization that takes 
advantage of morons like this again.  These quotes are coming from Issell, 
not the writer.  It's unreal.  I'm surprised he didn't mention what a 
consistent defensive stopper Ron is.  Oh, I forgot, they don't play defense 
out there.

I'm sure Ron will score a lot of points, and look oh so graceful on the 
highlight films, and Denver will continue to suck.
