Paragraph 281d, as originally printed, makes it appear as though the Lead should mirropr the Trail on 3-point attempts (2-person mechanics). The paragraph is wrong -- the word "not" was left out when the book was printed.
Maybe I'm missing something (in other words, I'm having another "senior moment"), but didn't the original post address the trail mirroring the lead, not the other way around?

I have found that if the lead makes the signal on a 3 below the free throw line (correctly) and the trail doesn't mirror it, the chances of the table not knowing it was a 3 are about 1 in 2 and the chances of the table at least asking about it are at least 1 in 4. I always mirror if I am trail, but never mirror if I am lead.
I'm sure you're correct. The post that I went back and found was about three pages long. I tried to dig it the correct answer but it got pretty silly. Thankfully, I don't have to worry about this since I don't work 2 man!

I've deleted the post so as to know create an confusion.
