OAKLAND, Calif., Jan. 15 (UPI) -- Two 3-pointers by Vladimir Radmanovic halted the final Los Angeles comeback bid Friday and pushed Golden State to a 122-112 win over the Clippers.

Los Angeles failed in its bid to win a season-best fourth straight game, falling short after twice overcoming double-digit deficits.

The Clippers tied it at 106-106 with 3:58 to play on a pair of free throws by DeAndre Jordan but Radmanovic put the Warriors in front for good 9 seconds later with a 3-point shot.

After Blake Griffin turned the ball over for the Clippers, Radmanovic hit another long-range shot with 3:16 to go. A Griffin miss was followed by a David Lee layup that put the Warriors in front by eight.

Golden State ended a two-game skid, getting 30 points from Monta Ellis and 23 from Stephen Curry. Radmanovic had 13 points.

The Warriors made 53 percent of their shots from the field and hit 14-of-26 from 3-point range.

Eric Gordon had 28 points for the Clippers and Griffin put together his 25th straight double-double with 28 points and 13 rebounds.
