Joe Johnson is the best closer in the game

[Knick_Fever]

Apparently most of us have been sleeping on this guy for a while. So far he's had 3 buzzer-beaters and several game-tying shots this season, and he's making them with an extremely high level of efficiency. Ice water definitely runs through his veins when the game is on line.

He really is the truth. See my sig.

.................until the playoffs come. Seen this before.

They just read off a stat that he leads the league in clutch shots this year. Something like 8-1 in shots that are taken with :30 seconds left on the clock or less

Yup. Career shrinker like Vince Carter

Pretty sure this changes every year based on whatever random criteria is used.

The New Truth. Joe Johnson needs a nickname. Nah srsly 8 for 9, 88.9% game on the line he's money.

I mean, clutch is a stupid term, and changes by the year.

Thats impressive, he's got an arsenal of pull-ups and step-backs that are almost impossible to defend. No doubt he's the real deal.

Clutch is an imaginary term until it happens to your team

He's definitely been doing his thing this year. Like everyone else said, your perception is going to vary from year to year. His teams were always overmatched and hes obviously not a tier 1 star but for a tier 2/3 guy he held his own, taking championship C's to 7 games and Bulls to 6. He got his share of playoff W's. He sure seems to like the big moment more than his PG does this year.

He has one, it's Joe Cool.

Word but it's been for the last 3 years in his position. This year it's at a stupid rate.

no offense but that **** sucks.

[Knick_Fever]

And I thought Melo was clutch, yeah right. I think Melo missed all of his "clutch" attempts. Joe Johnson is this year's Mr. Closer for sure.

He has had it for a while, I didn't come up with it so why would I be offended?
