00:00Welcome to this insight into team dynamics and on-court intensity. Dylan Brooks has accumulated

00:06a significant number of technical fouls over his career, totaling 85. During the fourth quarter

00:11of Tuesday night's game, where the team lost 118-107 to the Golden State Warriors, Isaiah

00:18Livers took immediate action when he noticed Brooks yelling at referee Brett Nancel. Livers

00:22quickly intervened by covering Brooks's mouth and attempted to assert that any inappropriate

00:27comments were aimed at him instead. Unfortunately, for Livers, his attempt was unsuccessful and Brooks

00:34was assessed a technical foul, even though he was not in uniform, due to a core injury. Both Livers

00:41and Brooks are in their first season with the Phoenix team. Livers joined the team on a two-way

00:46contract in July, while Brooks was acquired through the trade involving Kevin Durant. Despite their

00:53brief time as teammates, Livers had already developed an understanding of Brooks's character

00:57prior to the season. He shared on Arizona Sports Burns and Gambo that he recognized Brooks's

01:04competitive nature right from the start. From day one, I sensed that he doesn't shy away from any

01:11challenge, Livers remarked on Thursday. This is summer league basketball, and one might expect the

01:16players to be more relaxed. However, that was not the case with Brooks, who was very aggressive and

01:22vocal on the court. The Suns only managed to take the lead against the Warriors once, at 5-0 in the

01:28first quarter. Although they faced a significant deficit that reached 25 points, they managed to

01:35reduce the Warriors' lead to single digits on a few occasions, trailing by nine points, when the

01:40technical foul was called. After the game, Devin Booker mentioned that Brooks had apologized for the

01:46technical foul. He emphasized the importance of avoiding technical fouls in the fourth quarter,

01:51regardless of whether a player is actively participating in the game. Booker noted that

01:57Brooks acknowledged his mistake, calling it selfish, and the team is ready to move on.

02:02What's your take on the importance of composure in professional sports?
