This flurry from Keegan makes the dumb touch fouls and defensive lapses hurt even more. Btw, I hope our coaching staff gives Monk a greater chance. Yanking him after poor play as if he’s some sort of rookie, is just something i don’t agree with. Might as well let him play through it, as i believe his style of play helps Fox a lot more. 
Scheduled loss though lol it’s all good, we all knew it. Can’t win em all!

This game showed us what the playoffs can and will be like, so it’s great to see Keegan take that challenge on and shine the way he did. Also, it shows the level of respect the Heat have for our squad. Just gotta move on to Indiana, guys. Please don’t be too hard on the Kings tonight and get all doomer over one poor night
Monk struggling like this has hurt us almost more than anything else. Yes, Fox has to be much better and smarter with shot selection (as he normally is) but he also needs more help from our guards. He can’t be our only point guard having to do it all on both ends. Get the man some help, Monte! Tyus Jones, somebody … anybody.
Kings were never going to stop anybody. Again, every team shoots well from three against the Kings
It seemed the hotter Richardson got. The more open the Kings left him.
Fox was especially terrible tonight. HB couldn’t make a shot.
The Kings bench was the big failure though. Completely destroyed and even with Fox’s terrible night and the shooting. That was the difference
Domas was very good. It didn’t look like he would have a good night in the first quarter but he got going.
Keegan was excellent. Kings should learn to ride the hot hand. Just because a heat check misses doesn’t mean they’re cold and it time to move on. It just means there is a limit to how hot they are.
Huerter was solid and has been solid for a good stretch now.
Monk on the other hand continues to play terrible. He has played terrible since he coughed up the Bucks game. Instead of coming in and scoring. He comes in and immediately starts throwing the ball away.
It’s a shame that when Huerter finally starts playing well, then Monk starts playing bad.
Oh well, on to the next one. Hopefully 5-2

The thing is that his shots are function of the offense. The vast majority of his shots are created by someone else so him getting a bunch of shots is moreso an indication of how well the Kings offense is running. Still, it would be great to see more post action when opposing teams put small players on him. We saw some of that recently but it's very hit and miss in Browns offense.
HB is always a pumpkin. He’ll have 5 games a year to make you think otherwise, and dude happened to have them B2B ((right in front of the trade deadline to likely stick because this time it’s really him for real!))
No anger about this one. The Heat aren’t 7plus-game losing streak bad and we always suck in Miami.

Well we lost. I don’t feel too bad about this one. We were competitive for the most part and we did so with very little help for Keegan and to a lesser extent Domas and Kevin. We aren’t talented enough to win regularly if we have 3 or 4 guys have an off night.
having said that, this was almost a guaranteed loss. Miami was on the ropes and they desperately needed this win. I’d love to win 2 of the next 3 for an outstanding road trip but would still be happy with 4-3. We are due for a hot shooting night too
