The Raptors got away with a clear foul to clinch Game 7 against the Pacers

Indiana fans won’t be happy about this no-call late in Game 7.

The Indiana Pacers were down three with the shot clock off and the ball in Paul George's hands in the final seconds of Game 7 against the Toronto Raptors. George decided to try for the quick two, driving into the teeth of the Raptors' defense and throwing a lob to center Ian Mahinmi. Mahinmi certainly appeared to be shoved from behind by Toronto's DeMar DeRozan, but there was no call and Indiana turned the ball over.

Toronto went on to win 89-84 to advance to the second round to play the Miami Heat. Pacers fans will not be happy about that no-call.
