The NBA has confirmed that the Boston Celtics got away with two late-game calls in their Game 5 win over the Philadelphia 76ers.

The first blown call came with 14.6 seconds to go when Sixers’ center Joel Embiid went for a layup and got slapped by the Celtics’ Aaron Baynes, but a foul wasn’t called. The second missed call was after Marcus Smart intercepted a last-second Ben Simmons pass, but wasn’t called for traveling.
