Memphis Grizzlies defeat Dallas 106-105

Mike Conley corralled a Monta Ellis miss with seven seconds remaining in overtime and took off the other way.

Like a running back, he put his head down, tried to split four Mavericks on a drive to the basket and drew a foul.

Conley hit the subsequent free throws with 1.1 seconds remaining in overtime Wednesday to lift the Memphis Grizzlies to a 106-105 win over Dallas that clinched them the No. 7 seed in the Western Conference playoffs.

Following a Dallas timeout, Ellis, who scored 14 of his 18 points in the fourth quarter and overtime, hit the back of the rim on a jumper from the top of the key at the buzzer.
