The NBA has confirmed two officiating errors during Game Six of the Eastern Conference finals between the Boston Celtics and the Miami Heat.
In Miami on Saturday night, the Celtics secured the win they needed to force a Game Seven at the buzzer when Derrick White tipped in a missed three-point attempt from teammate Marcus Smart to seal a 104-103 win. Nothing was deemed untoward during that sequence, but the previous play was particularly controversial.
At the opposite end of the court, Al Horford fouled the Heat 's Jimmy Butler was fouled by on a field goal attempt. In the immediate aftermath, Boston head coach Joe Mazzulla used a coach's challenge to contest the call by taking a timeout.
