With the Sixers already off the court and in the locker room, believing they had won against Cleveland 90-89, the important matchup to help decide playoff seeding was about to take a twist.

According to the Associated Press, the officials took several minutes to decide that Sixers center Samuel Dalembert fouled Cavs guard Devin Brown with 0.2 seconds left and brought Philadelphia back to the court for the free throws.

Brown calmly sank both free throws, giving Cleveland a 91-90 victory and sealed the fourth seed in the East.

"I heard a whistle," Brown said. "It was just a matter of the officials going back and changing the other official's opinion. But I did hear a whistle."

The Sixers appeared to have won after Lou Williams hit a fadeaway jumper with 5.1 seconds left -- his second go-ahead basket in the final minute.
