LOS ANGELES - In a span of just five nights, the Los Angeles Clippers got the better of Steve Nash and Jason Kidd - the top two point guards in the NBA - and sent them out of Staples Center on the losing end. Corey Maggette scored 31 points and rookie Al Thornton added 15 of his 22 in the fourth quarter and overtime, leading the Los Angeles Clippers to a 120-107 victory over the New Jersey Nets on Saturday night. Chris Kaman had 12 rebounds and a career-high nine blocked shots. "We had some really nice performances tonight," coach Mike Dunleavy said. "Obviously, Al Thornton gave us a huge lift off the bench when Tim Thomas got into foul trouble. Al is a player with a lot of offensive talent. What it comes down to for him is that he needs to find that comfort zone and confidence." Sam Cassell scored 22 points and reserve Cuttino Mobley had 19, leading Los Angeles to only its third victory in 14 games. The Clippers beat New Jersey at home for the fourth straight time, including a 102-101 squeaker last season that was decided by Mobleys three-pointer with 0.6 seconds on the clock. Richard Jefferson scored 21 points, Vince Carter had 20 and Marcus Williams added 17 off the bench for the Nets, who have lost four straight and five of six following a season-best five-game winning streak. Josh Boone had 17 points and 16 rebounds, while Kidd finished with 11 assists, 10 points and seven boards in the opener of New Jerseys six-game road trip. The Clippers, who came in averaging a league-worst 92.6 points, outscored New Jersey 19-6 in overtime and sewed it up by going 8-for-8 from the free throw line in the final 1:08. The Nets were 1-for-8 from the field in the extra five-minute session and shot 41 per cent overall. "They executed very well and played really well on defence," Boone said. "Thats what it came down to once we got to overtime. They were able to play defence and get the win." Thornton, the Clippers first-round draft pick, made a running bank shot from 30 feet at the right sideline to beat the third-quarter buzzer and slice New Jerseys lead to 72-71. The lead changed hands seven times in the fourth before Carter drove the left baseline for a reverse layup with extra hang time. It put the Nets ahead 86-85 with 5:48 left in the fourth quarter. Williams buried a three-pointer 41 seconds later and Jefferson added a pair of three throws for a 91-85 margin with 4:44 remaining - the first time either team led by more than five points in the second half. Mobleys three-pointer cut New Jerseys lead to 96-94 with 2:30 to go in regulation, and the Clippers pulled ahead 98-96 on Maggettes layup and Thorntons two free throws with 1:25 left. "Thornton changed the game for them with his post-ups and his ability to score and get fouled," Nets coach Lawrence Frank said. "Maggette was huge with his 31 points. When you look at it, that is a team that averages 92 points. But our inability to get stops when we needed to prevented us from getting the win." Maggette added a three-pointer after Boone missed a reverse layup at the other end, giving Los Angeles a five-point cushion with 45 seconds left in the fourth. Jefferson kept the Nets close with a dunk, then Cassell missed a 20-footer at the other end with 14 seconds on the clock, and Kidd tied it 101-all on a three-pointer from in front of the New Jersey bench to force OT. "They hit those three shots at the end of regulation, but we put it to them in overtime," Kaman said. Notes: Williams, the fourth player off the New Jersey bench, had a team-high nine points in the first half. .. About two minutes into the game, Kaman blocked a dunk attempt by Sean Williams - who returned the favour less than 2 1/2 minutes later by rejecting Kamans short baseline hook shot. .. The Clippers had just seven turnovers. They didnt commit their first one until Maggette threw an attempted crosscourt pass right into Jeffersons hands with 5:09 left in the first half. ..

Damon Feldman, of Broomall, Pa., won his complaint Wednesday after Canseco failed to show for his district court appearance. Feldmans lawyer Bob Bush says the award was for a little more than US$7,600. Feldman had claimed Canseco backed out and made twin brother Ozzie pass himself off as the baseball star for the scheduled March 26 bout in Hollywood, Fla. Feldman said he advanced Canseco $5,000 and paid another $1,500 for the former MVP to fly himself to the event. Feldman refused to let Ozzie Canseco compete. Feldman said the fight contract states Canseco had to return the money advanced to him if he didnt compete. "I feel relieved, but now I have to go collect it," Feldman said. "He knows he was wrong. "If he was right, he would have showed.dddddddddddd I just wanted justice against this guy. I cant believe it." Canseco boxed actor Danny Bonaduce and former Philadelphia Eagles kick returner Vai Sikahema in past bouts for Feldmans Celebrity Boxing Federation. Canseco has kept his name in the spotlight since boasting about how his steroid-fuelled exploits helped him hit 462 career home runs. He competed this season on Donald Trumps television show, "The Celebrity Apprentice." Canseco is also a player/manager for the Yuma Scorpions in the independent league. "He owes me $7,500," Feldman said. "Am I going to see it? Probably never." His experience with Canseco hasnt soured Feldman from hatching other ideas involving D-list celebrities. "I have Octomom doing a match," he said, "and I just partnered with Michael Lohan for a couple of TV projects." ' ' '
