What I want to know is why has Paul missed any of his free throws. This series would be over if had made them all. Surely he knew we could win those games if he just made those free throws and still he missed them. Next thing you know Ray will be missing free throws.

^^^^^ I saw that too. I saw Doc and some of the assistants signaling to make the free throw...but I don't think PP missed it on purpose. I think he just missed.

His freethrow has been suspect in clutch moments. I still think the best decision was to miss it though.

I had a completly diffrent interpratation of that signal, to me it looked like they said miss it, the TNT crew even mentioned they were tellign him to brick it.

there was no way they could have even gotten a legit shot off. maybe if they were inbounding from full with 1.2 anythings possible, us celtics fans know that best but when the ball hits the rim the clock goes by the time they grab it, it expires.

I think it is safe to say he missed on purpose when the ball hit the backboard first and he didn't use his normal form.
