The Milwaukee Bucks beat the Boston Celtics in Game 3 on Saturday afternoon, and the game had an absolutely wild ending. 

Marcus Smart got fouled with less than five seconds left (the Celtics trailed by 3) and he had two free throw attempts.      

The Defensive Player of The Year hit the first shot, but missed the second and the Celtics got the rebound giving them a chance for the tie.   

After multiple attempts, Al Horford tipped the ball in but the buzzer had already sounded and did not count.
