2 unusual facts about Hue Hollins


1994 NBA Playoffs

Game 5 @ Madison Square Garden, New York City (May 18): New York 87, Chicago 86 (Hue Hollins' Scottie Pippen questionable foul call on Hubert Davis)

Bulls–Knicks rivalry

In one of the most argued calls in NBA history, a questionable foul was called by Hue Hollins (who ironically was the same referee who officiated the controversial finish in Game 5 of the 1993 Eastern Conference Finals, and arguably opted not to call a foul on Charles Smith's multiple putback attempts in the waning seconds) in the closing seconds of Game 5 against Pippen, which gave Hubert Davis two free throws to turn a one-point deficit into a one-point victory for the Knicks.
