Ron Mercer Set To Retire

Seattle Times - Ron Mercer worked out with the Sonics in the offseason and was supposed to report to training camp before suffering a back injury that will force him to retire, the Seattle Times is reporting.

I posted this because i know one member in this forum will be pissed off. ( :::the only mercer fan::: )

Oh man, I can't wait to see the reaction. To bad for Mercer, Although I don't think he would of made it back.

Nah, he won't be pissed, he'll just find another bandwagon to jump on . Dejuan Wagner or something.

he was still playing? he had his moments

fitzy is gonna commit suicide or something..

Poor Fitzy

Just wanted to write the same thing about Fitzy
It's sad to see him retire, I liked his game especially when he was with the Spurs. Still one of my favourite players. I always hoped he can get another shot in the NBA.

I don't find how Fitzy could possibly be hurt with upcomming situation. I mean, for past 3-4 years, Mercer haven't been playing pro basketball and Fitzy was his #1 fan. I don't see why he shouldn't be still.

he sucked anyway fitzy will prolly jus bandwagon jacke vaugh or some shit

what the fuck are u talking about? fitzy has benn a mercer fan and will stay a mercer fan probably forever.

What a waste of talent, he actually had some productive years.

Not really sad to see him go since I wasnt that big a fan. At least this question poped up in my head...

Who would you rate higher: Ron Harper or Ron Mercer?

Ron Harper... not only does Ron Harper have more championship rings (did Mercer even get one? I forgot..maybe one with his stint with the Spurs) but someone's gotta remember Ron Harper's rookie years.. Harper had some monster stats.

Fitzy wont be happy lmao! Didnt he sign a contract with Tel Aviv tho?

This will just make being a Ron Mercer fan even more hardcore.

Harper > Mercer.

It's sad to see anyone go because of an injury. I still remember him and Billups being the backcourt of the future.

I actually liked Ron Mercer, although he underachieved.

Then again, I like almost every underachiever.

No Fitzy yet?? I feel bad for him, and Ron Mercer

Icluding Kwame Brown?

Absolutely. Qyntel Woods, Kedrick Brown, Ndudi Ebi, Tim Thomas, Jerome Moiso and Tyson Chandler make me scream with delight.

is that the guy who got blocked by a pissed off MJ?

Sorry Fitza. But istn Mercer going to play in Europe?

Dude can you read? A career ending back injury doesn't dissappear when you go to Europe..
