Pacers kick their way past Warriors in controversial finish

Oakland, CA – George Hill kicked the ball away from Monta point play at the other end, 91.

With the score tied 91-91, Ellis started to make his way to the hoop with about five seconds to play. Ellis tried to use a crossover dribble to get past Hill, who kicked the ball with his foot. The controversial non-call allowed Hill to race the other way for a layup. He was fouled on the play and made the free throw to make it a 94-91 game with 1.8 seconds remaining.

Stephen Curry's three-pointer was off the mark as time expired. Curry had missed the last eight games with a sprained right ankle.
