Joe Johnson's best days may be behind him, but even in a down year with the dreadful Brooklyn Nets, the 34-year-old swingman still has enough ice flowing through his veins to knock down clutch buckets.

Monday's game between the Nets and Denver Nuggets appeared to be over after Kenneth Faried drove to the basket to put his team up 104-102 with 1.3 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter.

Johnson made sure that wasn't the case, banking a 3-pointer off the backboard as time expired to give the Nets a 105-104 victory at the Barclays Center - their second win in three games.

Mikhail Prokhorov couldn't have been happier:

Johnson finished the night with 12 points and one deadly crossover on Jusuf Nurkic in 29 minutes of action.
