No question, it's Ray.

And my second choice would be Big Baby.

Whoever is open with a shot they can handle.

It's got to be Scal shooting a three...
This is getting a bit tired now. Scal shot .390 on threes and .420 during the playoffs, so leave the guy alone.

This is a question that cannot be answered legitimately until we get a feel for the flow of the game.

Thursday night, the answer was maddeningly obvious to everyone except Doc and the five on the floor: Ray Allen.

That would be terrible if it comes down to the last shot tonight. :-[

I don't want the last shot to be meaningful tonight, so anyone can take it...

Bill Walker or Gabe Pruitt - if they're on the floor for the last shot, we'll be in reeeally good shape

If they are able to run a play designed,i would like something going to the hoop with Rondo trying to dunk/layup,with the potential to draw an and-one.

Ugh, Tony Allen... right Doc?

Seriously, this is a no brainer.  It's Ray.

I had a dream that Scal hit an 18 foot straight on fallaway to win last night.


I'd still think I'd rather have Ray shooting it though.
"Take this down," said O'Neal. "My name is Shaquille O'Neal and Paul Pierce is the (expletive) truth. Quote me on that and don't take nothing out. I knew he could play, but I didn't know he could play like this. Paul Pierce is the truth."
