DeAndre Jordan and Blake Griffin each scored six points in the final 3:39 and J.J. Redick hit a jumper and two free throws in the final 36 seconds as the host Los Angeles Clippers squeaked out a 126-121 victory over the Golden State Warriors last night in Game 7 of their first-round series.

Chris Paul and Darren Collison each hit two free throws in the final 8.2 seconds as the Clippers held off an onslaught of three-pointers and free throws down the stretch by Stephen Curry (33 points) and Danny Green (24).

Griffin led the Clippers with 24 points, Paul and Jamal Crawford had 22 each and Redick 20.

Pacers 92, Hawks 80: Paul George had 30 points as host Indiana, the top seed in the East, won the first-round series in seven games.

Roy Hibbert, who had been a non-factor in the first six games, scored 13 for the Pacers.

"We know that when he is locked in offensively, his defense is off the charts. That's when he becomes special," George said. "I thought he was very special for us."

The game turned on a 24-6 run in a 10:02 stretch that spanned the second and third quarters. That gave Indiana a 57-40 lead.

Thunder 120, Grizzlies 109: Kevin Durant had 33 points and Russell Westbrook 27 points, 16 assists and 10 rebounds as host Oklahoma City reached the conference semifinals by winning Game 7. The Grizzlies, playing without leading scorer Zach Randolph because of a suspension, led by 11 points in the first half.-- AP
