Cooley with a little hook but I will take the 3 point play.

Ha! Very true. These guys are painful to listen to.

ESPN is trying to make some coin off of the summer league and I'm fine with that but they need to be a little more professional. It's not quite as bad as listening to Vince Carter, but it's bad.

lol, the Peters to Cooley connection.

We've been getting torched with this lineup but at least we got to see those twin towers combine for a sick dunk. Towers might be a stretch... bunkers?

There looking into the other guys you can tell they don't care about winning this one

It seems that way but it makes little sense to me. You'd think it would have been better to go deep into the roster in the seeding games rather than in the actual tournament.

Winning or losing in summer league is meaningless but I don't want to hear all the negative stuff the announcers will say if the Suns lose.

I think it has value to at least show well, losing this game would be dispiriting I think (for a little while at least).

Ayton has had weak handles all game long.

Did the team spend the morning out by the pool, sipping mimosas? They seem sleepy.

I reeeeeeeally hate this over the court camera they keep using. It's vertigo inducing and about half the time can't keep up with the ball.

Ayton gives it up again and again.

That pick is the perfect example of Harrison's play bugging me. Pick works perfect and he... stops and hesitates, lets the defense recover... then drives. He had space to shoot or do a quick drive or dish to Ayton, he did none of it.

Well it looks like we have 1 more game and a lot to fret about.

These games from Ayton really bug me. He is absolutely the most talented player on the court and he just is floating along and not impacting the game in any way.

lol, I'm as confused as 0 on the Sixers there. They made no effort to contest that layup and got called for a foul anyway, seems like refs sometimes anticipate a foul and blow their whistle regardless.

I just looked at the box score and it is brutal for Ayton. Worst in +/-. More fouls and turnovers than FGs. Just caca.

Bender another great defensive play. Really fantastic footwork so far.
