With under six seconds left, and the Lakers needing a three to tie Golden State, Steph Curry wisely fouled LeBron James on the floor. However, James was erroneously ruled in the act of shooting and awarded three free throws. After LeBron missed the first, Rasheed Wallace smiled, and the King was forced to miss the third intentionally. Davis couldn't get to the tip and the Warriors came away with a 117-115 win over LA.
