Orlando 105 Miami 102
The Heat jumped out to a 49-7 lead early in the game, but their lead was reduced to 12 points when it was discovered the official scorer had confused basketball and football. Adding to the confusion was the game-winning three-point field goal that Brandon Bass nailed from 28 yards away.

Portland 70 Denver 61
Fatigue played an important role as both teams chose to nap in the locker room for most of the second half. Greg Oden drowsily hit three straight lethargic 3-pointers to end the game and was applauded loudly by the remaining fan.

Utah 95 Memphis 15
Early in the first quarter, a referee declared that Memphis players were only allowed two passes per possession and could only shoot from beyond the half court line. The Grizzlies suffered from shooting accuracy problems from that point on, going just 2-for-47 from the floor. In his post-game comments, Memphis coach Lionel Hollins expressed displeasure with the officiating.
