A basket by Matt Barnes gave the Clippers a 96-87 lead with 1:46 to play but Williams and Johnson drained 3-pointers to pull Brooklyn within two points and Anderson followed with a four-point play to give the Nets a 100-98 lead with 15.3 seconds to play before Paul scored a tying layup with 8.6 seconds to go.

Lopez had 18 first-half points on 9-of-13 shooting as Brooklyn held a 38-36 halftime lead.
