Watch: Dubious call at buzzer helps Bulls overcome Celtics
Kim Klement / USA Today Sports
A very dubious call decided the final possession of Chicago Bulls' 104-103 victory over the red-hot Boston Celtics.
Marcus Smart was whistled for a shooting foul with 0.9 seconds left. That sent Jimmy Butler to the line for two freebies that gave Chicago the controversial win before the All-Star break.
Butler said in the postgame interview that he was hit on the elbow, but replays show very minimal contact made by Smart as he lunged for a late contest on Butler's misfiring jumper.
