Vikings' Asher Allen retires at age 24
PHILADELPHIA, April 14 (UPI) -- Devin Brown made two free throws with two-tenths of a second remaining Monday to give the Cleveland Cavaliers a 91-90 win over The Philadelphia 76ers.
The Cavaliers clinched the Eastern Conference's fourth seed.
Cleveland trailed 90-89 after Lou Williams hit a jumper with 5.1 second left. LeBron James missed a shot with less than a second to go and Brown missed the putback as the horn sounded.
But officials reviewed what apparently had been a foul called on Sixers center Samuel Dalembert. After a delay of almost five minutes, Brown was award two free throws and the players -- who had left the court thinking the game was over -- were called back.
James had 27 points and Zydrunas Ilgauskas added 22.
Andre Miller scored 26 points and Williams 21 for Philadelphia, which has lost three straight.
