[espn]Ex-NBA player Mercer allegedly involved in strip club fight

Playing in "terrible teams" doesn't making one less a decent player. Based on your logic you can argue Bruce Bowen is a better player than T-Mac because of the success (or lack thereof ) of their respective teams. You can also say the same for Michael Dickerson who was very much a decent player even though Rockets and Grizzles were lottery team back then.

Hes been on some good teams he was just never good enough to retain the job. He wasnt decent
