Granted the C's would have been way out of the game without the foul
shots. 
However, at one point he missed about 4 in a row that really put the
Celtics 
in a bind.

Doc needs to learn to take Perk out earlier in the first quarter.  He
often 
follows his first foul with a needless second one.  My feeling, the second

one is caused by physical and/or mental fatigue.  He probably should be in

and out of the lineup more often.  I question his conditioning stamina.  I

could be wrong here.
