If a guy’s hot he knows how to get him the ball,” Keatts said. “In today’s game, guys don’t really understand the next play and he’s got the ‘next play’ mentality. “He’s just a guy who calms you down. I’m upset and everybody else on the floor is upset and the only guy who looks like he’s going to win the poker game is Michael. And that’s what you want in a point guard.”
