NEWARK, N.J., March 7 (UPI) -- Jordan Farmar hit a 3-pointer just before the buzzer Wednesday to give New Jersey a 101-100 triumph over the Los Angeles Clippers.
New Jersey's Deron Williams and the Clippers' Chris Paul staged a tremendous point guard duel, combining for 43 points and 20 assists.
It was Farmar, however, who came off the bench to hit the biggest shot of the game and bring the Nets just their fourth win at home all season.
The Clippers rallied from an 18-point deficit in the third period and took a two-point advantage when Paul made two free throws with 9 seconds remaining.
Farmar then came through with his clutch shot that left him with 16 points for the game. Williams scored 21 points with 10 assists and six rebounds for the Nets.
Paul had 22 points, 10 assists, six rebounds and five steals. Blake Griffin scored 28 points for the Clippers, who have lost three of their last four and remained tied for the lead with the Los Angeles Lakers in the Pacific Division.
