I gotta be honest JC, my own thought process is "stunted" on this one. He had the physical tools and ultimately proved to be a very serviceable player. Yes, he wasn't the best 3pt shooter, but Simmons is an All-Star and can't throw a ball into the ocean while standing on a pier. Only playing for the bag? Like you said, that's too tough to read unless it's just blatant (ie: Erick Dampier leading the league in rebounds the year before his next contract & GSW paid him $50+ million and then regressing back to his former self). Maybe (and perhaps I'm reaching here), it was something off the court/personal that affected his play and he just couldn't shake it (no social media back then). His career could've gone better, but he was no bust...If BOS kept him, he possibly could've elevated the 6th-man position for the league.

Even without Mercer being able to shoot that well I think he still would've been very affective because Pierce and Walker both could shoot which would open the lane more for Mercer with the option of kicking the ball back out for a jumper or 3, I think that lineup would've kept defenses honest and made them think to much .

Good video. Thanks. The reason the Nuggets traded Mercer in 1999 is that they couldn't afford to sign him and he didn't get along with his teammates. They thought he was selfish. He got in a fistfight with George McCloud.

I think brandon roy needs to be on stunted growth as well

I grew up in Kentucky and followed Mercer's career fairly closely and I always had the feeling that the guy just didn't care THAT MUCH about basketball. He always seemed to kind of coast and glide around the court. It seemed like it was just a regular job for him that that was about it. Don't know, but that's the feeling I got watching him. He was on his way out of the league around the time he should have been entering his prime.

Lack of a consistent jumper kills most guards and small forwards=Mercer. Kenny Walker another Kentucky player back in the day had the same problem. Just because a guy can win a dunk contest doesn't make him a great NBA player. Know your role.

Ron was most definitely a solid pro, but honestly I don't think he was quite as good as advertised. In my eyes Anthony Epps, Wayne Turner (possible future episodes?!?) and Derek Anderson (fav episode) all had a greater upside for league potential than him, but he had the body/look that got him over. Good work as always JC aka Tha Stunt'na!

I was waiting for this one. Thank you Stunted Growth!

was thinking about him when i saw that derek anderson episode..

I knew Mercer's stunted growth was coming soon. Ron Mercer was basically a rhythm player with the ball who's jumper was more of a threat around midrange but had that left to right head and shoulders crossover in his arsenal in his Boston and denver days which was his only go to move in the halfcourt that would shock some defenders that didnt know his scouting report .Otherwise he seemed more comfortable in the opencourt going to his pattenant spin move on defenders to the hoop IF he couldn't catch a dunk. I thought he would have had a more productive career but maybe injuries to being traded to being a reserve or him getting his shot at the rim (Gobbled!!)double 2handed blocked by the wizard's 40yr old Micheal Jordan that made ESPN got him in a deeper funk or depression IDK

Ron Mercer only played 80 games once in his career and only played 70 games twice. You can't really tell his story without time lost to injury, being on bad teams, or being on a young team that the franchise didn't allow to develop. The 2001 Bulls team alone had Carlos Boozer, Ron Artest, Khalid El-Amin, Jamal Crawford, Elton Brand, Brad Miller, and Marcus Fizer. Brand, Boozer, Artest, Crawford, and Miller all went on to have some level of success. Mercer could have easily been a second option on an elite team if given the chance. Mercer had solid numbers for the time. Jordan and Pippen only shot about 32% from 3 to Mercer's 25% and Jordan took less than 2 per game for his career, it was just a different time. In his prime Mercer only got about 15 to 18 shots per game and put up solid scoring numbers for someone with that few shots. Remember coaches decide how many shots you get to put up per game if you were not a big man in that era and could rebound and create second-chance points. Mercer could have easily been what Ron Artest was for the Lakers during Kobe's era and Mercer put up better numbers than Artest when they played together. Just look at those 2001 Bulls numbers. Mercer was a solid player that never got the chance on a team that was the right fit. The drop-off was after injuries took some of his athleticism and coaches lost faith in him. Granted, he never worked on his range, but how many coaches told him to.

Unfortunate no team gave him a shot and he bounced around so much. Boston and Denver should've given him more of an opportunity especially since 3 point shooting wasn't as popular in the late 90s and early 00s as it is today.

Another solid video. It seems like Mercer not being able to shoot 3s is nonsense, he played within his strengths(slasher/mid-range shooter). It only leaves to "character", which is something that is not spoking about. I have no evidence of this but that's all that is left, "was he a good teammate".

Great episode nashville own

He didn't shoot 3's, but he also didn't get to the line well (compare him to Stackhouse, Mobley, Francis - other 2nd tier scorers of the time) nor did he get assists. Getting points inefficiently doesn't do that much for offense, as we all know. I guess it's consistent with what you said about his not creating well. How was he even getting points? Just jacking it every touch??

Played against him in the AAU Nationals when he was a sophomore, so talented, did he peak too soon?

The Celtics made the right call. Paul Pierce is a HOF player & one of the best players for that storied franchise.

You know how to em. Mercer is another one that should be brought up in more convos

I requested this video a couple of weeks ago this was one of my favorite players. Thanks man!!!

Always wondered what happened with him was a fan of his ...that block by MJ 🐐

I think Ron Mercer simply developed interests outside of basketball that made him a lot of money and he chose to go that route instead of being in a profession where you have so little control of your career path

Big Country babaayyyy. Flat top stunted

Imagine the Celtics keeping both Joe Johnson and Chauncy Billups after drafting them, and teaming them up with Antoine Walker and Paul Pierce. Celtics would have had a dynasty in the 2000's.

The paul pierce emergence probably hurt him the most in a normal situation paul pierce would of been drafted much higher plus boston couldn't pass on a player like pierce even though they play same position so Mercer most definitely would of stayed in Boston longer than 2 yrs

Keep your foot on Gas love and Respect from 🇧🇪 through 🇨🇩

Can't remember, but did you do Chris herrin from Fresno State?

Mercer was one of those guys who wasnt terrible but merely.....average. On a bad team he could probably average 15ppg but he was the kind of player who even bad teams wanted an upgrade over. Also his secondary numbers were lackluster. He didnt rebound, he didnt get many assists. Didnt get many steals or blocks. So you had a player who was better than average at putting the ball in the basket but wasnt really dynamic. He'd get you 17 points but it would take him 16 shots to get there. IMHO Mercer was the type of player who could have had a Ron Harper like career had he played in the 70's or 80's. A sometime All-Star who could get you 18-22ppg through his prime.

Could you please do a stunted growth on Wesley Johnson, that would be amazing.

Ron Mercer bringing the Cats back to the championship in '97 was an incredible feat considering that probably their best player going into the season (Derek Anderson) went down earlier in the year with a season-ending injury.

I'm sure people won't agree with this but some people say things like " he's only in it for the money ", but everybody always says " it's a business " when a player gets traded or something like that happens, so in my opinion if a player is just in it for the money he's treated the game and the league just like that ( a business ) and in the NBA or pro sports period the better you do and / or the team does it's likely the more money you make or more opportunities to make money . I know most players are too competitive to not care or take the emotions out of the game and just play, but to a point I don't really see anything wrong with a player treating the game or the league like a business and " being in it for the money ", now with that being said they also have to accept what comes along with that and it could mean they don't really have that long of a career . Just my opinion

Dwayne Wade wasn't much of a 3 point shooter either but look at what kind of career he had. Ron's game was similar to his.

I remember him playing for my Magic. Much respect for him

You need to do a piece on Jared Sullinger.

Ron Mercer was so nice inside and outside I don't understand how he didn't translate in the NBA when you talk about smooth you got to mention this guy but when you talk about failure to live up to potential you also got to talk about this guy #stuntedGrowth✊🏾

First 3-4 yrs is crucial for a players development and Ron was in nothing but bad losing situations…Talented player who showed flashes of greatness, but dude just never found his role and got lost in the mix..Fact of the matter is unless your a generational Lebron, Shaq, MJ type talent so much of becoming a star or very productive player at the least is being in a situation at the right place and time..

SG with another banger.
