Game Day - Summer League Edition: Suns (0-1) @ Heat (1-0), Mon 7/10/23

Time: 3:30 pm AZ (3:30 pm PT/6:30 pm ET)
Place: Thomas & Mack Center, Las Vegas, NV
TV: NBA TV

The Summer Suns continue their odyssey and look to get in the win column. Will Jordan Goodwin be back? (Probably not). Hopefully we'll get more high-level play from Toumani "The Paparazzi" Camara, and more scrappiness and rebounding from Trey Jemison. The Heat are coming off a win against the Celtics behind a 36/11 night from second-year G-League big man Orlando Robinson.

Go Suns!!!

Toumani Papi looks like he's too good for SL.

9/2 after the 1st for TouCam Sam. Heat were rough offensively early with 9 turnovers but hit 3s to hang around and closed the quarter strong.

Haywood talking shit about the Suns defense like he clearly hasn’t watched them.

Just came here to comment about that. That and he said the Suns had 2 30 point scorers and still lost to the Nuggets. Yep, that's exactly the narrative. Nothing else happened. At.all.

Haven't heard someone be so out of touch with a contending team in some time. Brendan Heywood doesn't watch NBA basketball.

Toumani looking real solid. Has that Paul George type game. Can do a little of everything. Seems to have a good BBIQ. Lets the game come to him.

Camara's on-the-ball offense is kind of rough on the perimeter. SL isn't a good setting for him that sense. I think he'll be someone who looks a lot better playing as a 5th option off the main guys. But he's moving without the ball, screening and getting open and getting deep in the post and finishing well. I wouldn't say he's a bouncy athlete but can really get up on the break.

Wait a minute. Do you all know Gordon is Eric Gordon's actual brother?

He is? I'm reading some good things, seeing some good highlights. Seems pretty tenacious on the glass. Is he really bad though? Serious question. I haven't followed him at all.

Eron Gordon is Eric's younger brother. He was a hot prospect in High school here in Indianapolis. He thought he was something special and he kept transferring high schools to maximize his talents and ended up being ineligible his senior year. He never really got any better and ended up playing in like 3 or 4 colleges as well.

All in all pretty big bust as he was just hyped mainly because of his brother's success.

Wow. Hey kids, don't smoke weed. I saw Jordan Goodwin on our team and confused him for Gordon, thinking that was his brother.

Carry on.

Yep, and his other brother Evan Gordon played at ASU.

Finally had a chance to watch this last night. I love all the nicknames. Toumani Papi, TouCam Sam, Mr. Tou Mani Buckets. He's definitely NOT Camara Shy.
