What would you do?

Watched the Knick game last night.

Knicks up 1 with 1.5 seconds left and Toronto out of time outs.

Galloway is on the foul line to take one shot (he missed the first).

What would you do if you were him?

back rim the second free throw

I did not see the game, but considering no TOs for Toronto, you have to miss that shot.

If they are out of TOs you probably miss. But many coaches don't like doing that.

If Toronto is out of timeouts, you definitely miss it on purpose. As long as you hit the rim, you force Toronto to shoot an 80-footer.

Must miss. Absolute no brainer there.

I sat in amazement as I watched Galloway set up at the free throw line clearly seeing he was going to try and make the shot, which he did.

Normally I note IMO on things of this nature, but not this time.

A stunning move by not only the player but the coaching staff that sat idly by with no instructions to miss the shot.

Beyond clueless by all involved.

I'm out of state so I don't know, but I would hope a reporter or two would pose the question to the coaching staff on why they didn't instruct him to rim the shot.
