Jimmy Butler off the out of bounds play taps it in. Heck of a play by the Bulls. Great pass by Pau. pic.twitter.com/iWBxNolawp

It was a barn-burner in Chicago Wednesday night, but the Bulls were somehow able to sneak away with a 102-100 victory over the Indiana Pacers in overtime. After Monta Ellis tied the game at 100-100 with an improbable three, the Bulls came right back and executed the game-winning play to perfection.
In a brilliant bit of misdirection, Chicago inbounded the ball to Pau Gasol at the top of the key, who immediately lobbed it up for Jimmy Butler as he cut backdoor on Paul George and was able to get a hand on it and tap it in with just over a second remaining.
