With Fox out, and on the second night of a back-to-back, the Kings show up with energy and determination under Doug Christie and fight their way to victory after two overtime periods.
I caught the 4th quarter and OT’s last night. Keegan definitely hit a couple clutch shots late in the 4th.
In watching the game, it’s easy to see how it’s hard for Keegan to get into the flow of the game. 90% of the time I was watching he’d be planted in the corner, never moving more than 10 feet as DeRozan or Monk took the ball 1 v. 1 from the top of the key. I understand that’s how the game is played these days. But it has to be a little disengaging for him to just stand there and hope someone passes to him. He did do a nice job of crashing to boards once a shot went up.

Having DeRozan join the Kings has definitely not helped Murray. It’s making him play out of position, as he’s better as a wing than a big. How unfun it would be to watch DeRozan dribble the air out of the ball. Would like to see Murray wind up in Houston somehow, they need a sniper.
