Old Legs Beat Young Legs In Denver

From Elias: Andre Miller, at age 37, beat 23-year-old rookie Draymond Green off the dribble and drove the lane for a game-winning layup with 1.3 seconds remaining in the Nuggets' 97-95 series-opening victory over the Warriors. Miller scored a game-high 28 points off the bench, the most points scored by a 37-or-older substitute in an NBA playoff game since Eddie Johnson, then 38, scored 31 points to help the Rockets to a victory over the Jazz in Game Three of the 1997 Western Conference Finals.

NBA - Andre Miller is old but clutch

NEXT LEVEL: 37-year-old Andre Miller made a game-winning shot for the Nuggets today with 1.3 seconds left. Miller is the 3rd-oldest player to make a go-ahead shot in the final 10 seconds of an NBA playoff game over the last 15 years. Gary Payton was 293 days older when he made a game-winner for the Heat in the 2006 playoffs, and John Stockton was 17 days older when he made a game-winner for the Jazz in the 1999 playoffs.
