Game 5 was a triple-overtime classic that is considered by many to be the greatest game in NBA history.

With the series tied 2-2, Boston took a huge lead at Boston Garden but could not hold it.

The game was enhanced by several controversies, including Boston's Paul Silas

 trying to call a timeout at the end of regulation that Boston did not have

(with the officials simply ignoring him lest the game be decided upon a technical foul shot),

but eventually went to Boston in three overtimes, 128-126.

Phoenix, in tying the game, overcame a 22-point deficit.
