Keegan has been playing good defense lately. He needs to stay focused on that end tonight. This is a difficult test for the team tonight, and the Clips are probably going to go after Keegan on offense.
so far so good
K33gan with 5 quick points and the Kings lead early
fun game, especially when none of the "stars" are sitting out
its amazing how the Kings are currently shooting 60% overall and 46% from 3 yet trail by 6
Clips have a lot of weapons and a lot of love from the officials. Keegan with 0 rebounds so far. Scoring well, though.
Sabonis with 4 fouls. His man had his arm around him and even grabbed him and guess who gets the foul? Yep, you guessed it. Kings have to keep this close entering the 4th to have any chance IMO.
Refs targeting Sabonis. Just picked up his 5th. Plumlee was outside the restricted area and moving when he made contact with Sabonis.
Gotta be the highlight of the night! Keegan goes coast to coast and finishes with a monsta dunk!
The Kings are on a CRAZY 15-2 run over last 2 and a half minutes!
They now trail by 1 with 1:13 to go in the game

These are the games that I'm glad the "I don't watch the NBA but the NBA sucks" crowd misses out on. Idiots
Most points scored for the Franchise. 1st time 2 Kings players each had 40+. 2nd highest scoring game in NBA history.
imagine if the college game had a defensive 3 seconds rule like the NBA? it sure would open up the game and prevent teams/players from camping out in the lane
Wow. I'm flabbergasted. What a humongous win on the road where the other team has Paul George, Kawhi Leonard, and Russ Westbrook. I'm sure enjoying this one.
Keegan had 15 pts, 3 rebs, 2 ast, 2 stls, and a block. Good job! (And 0 turnovers).
