Brooklyn Nets edge Golden State Warriors on Jack's buzzer-beater

Jarrett Jack hit the game-winning shot with just 1.1 seconds remaining, giving the Brooklyn Nets a big 110-108 victory over the Golden State Warriors at Barclays Center.

One of a host of teams battling for the final two playoff spots in the Eastern Conference, the Nets came through with a signature win over the West's top squad after holding off a furious late comeback attempt led by Stephen Curry.

Curry scored 11 of his 26 points during a 12-2 run that knotted the score at 108-108 entering the final minute, but the MVP candidate's reverse layup attempt missed the mark and left his hand after the buzzer to send the Warriors to defeat.

Brook Lopez racked up 26 points and Deron Williams added 22 for Brooklyn, which went 10-of-21 from 3-point range and held Curry and fellow All-Star Klay Thompson in check for most of the night.

While Curry was able to overcome some early struggles, Thompson made just 3- of-17 field goal attempts and finished 1-of-9 from beyond the arc while mustering just seven points.

Andrew Bogut posted 16 points for Golden State, but all of them came in the first half.
