There’s a reason why the Nets pay Joe Johnson $90 million and he proved it last night against the Bucks, twice. First Johnson hit a three to force the game into OT, then he hit a shot in the extra quarter at the buzzer to win the game.

“It’s an unbelievable feeling, man,” said Johnson, who finished with 24 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists. “Regardless of the situation, whether it’s the regular season or the playoffs, it’s always a great feeling, just to see everybody kind of explode and the excitement in the building, is probably the best feeling.”

Long live ISO-Joe.
