Game Day (SL): Suns (4-1) @ Pelicans (5-0), Sun 7/19/15

Post by Superbone »

Time: 5:00 pm AZ (5:00 pm PT/8:00 pm ET)
Place: Thomas And Mack Center, Las Vegas, NV
Broadcast: NBATV

We play the hot Seth Curry and his undefeated Pelicans in our semifinal game today. Curry will be out for revenge after being on our SL team a year ago. We're going to need a much better game from Len than his last outing where he fouled out after 18 minutes of playing time. The Pels have been winning with strong guard play which we're going to have to match or at least defend.

Go Summer Suns!!!

?? Len not starting at center? Is he taking this one off? If so, the Suns lose. Len, even with a bad game, makes a huge difference.

Scheduled rest apparently. They don't want him playing back-to-backs in summer league

I like what Josh Harrelson brings. Can shoot a little from the outside...I wouldn't mind a camp invite to go his way.

James to Archie for the dunk....Suns by 6 late in 2nd

It's the Devin Booker show in the 2nd half

Jorts is getting it done!

I think Booker has figured out this NBA three thing now.

Wrong. :) Impressive win without Len and only 2 points from a hobbled Warren. Now THAT is what you call a breakout game for Devin Booker. He ties Warren for the most points this summer league with 31; 15 in the third quarter. Also, big game from Mike James.

Now that we have defeated Dejean-Jones, is the rest of the Justice League going to come kick our butts?

Hobbled Warren? I've been out all day. What's going on?

Hammy. Obviously not bad enough to hold him out.

The 9 Rebs from Book were nice to see too.

Watching the game now. I think you have to give Harrellson a contract. He can play C & really step out to shoot the 3. He's fundamentally sound with legs like tree trunks. Would be an excellent 3rd C & since Len will most assuredly miss time....
Go Suns!

I'm sad to say that Alec Brown's shot looked horrible in the game today. He had two dunks but his outside shots were off. His three point attempt was particularly horrid.
