Reverse Growth Superstar

: Twenty-six: Happy troubles

   The NBA's top five on December 6th, as usual, made most fans look excited.

   But what surprises most people is that on today's top five balls, there is a figure that makes many fans very strange. Moreover, it appeared twice as soon as it appeared.

   is the fifth place in today's top five goals. The little-known yellow-skinned player shook off Tracy McGrady and cut to the basket perfectly. Then, under the blockage of Monroe, he turned sideways to complete the cut.

   From getting rid of to cutting in and then to the final dunk, the whole action is done in one go. I don't know, I thought it was Yao Ming who got shorter. After all, the NBA hasn't had a yellow-skinned player performing this kind of wonderful scene for too long.

   After this, the yellow-skinned Chinese appeared again in the top five of today.

   This time he didn't even have any luck with the ball, he didn't even take a step. He just threw it leisurely after receiving the blocked basketball on the outside, and completed an air relay with Jordan Hill.

   And the essence of this ball is precisely the temperament of walking in the garden. If you don't have a strong ability to read the game, you can't pretend to do whatever you want.

   It is very difficult for a star to occupy two seats in the top five every day. After all, there are so many games in the NBA a day, there are countless wonderful shots. The probability of selecting five of them from the same person at the same time is too low.

   But today, Link did it. Oh, yes, it’s just that many fans who watched today’s top five still don’t know that the Chinese who came up suddenly is called Link.

   Waiting for most of the fans to search the Internet to find out that he was just a loser! The current contract with the Rockets is a 10-day short contract, and the last game was his first appearance on behalf of an NBA team!

   In an instant, all the fans exploded. Before you know it, Link's popularity has begun to soar...

   5 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist. When Link opened his eyes on the bed, these numbers came to him first.

   This is the first time he scored in a game in the NBA.

   Yesterday, Josh Smith scored 34 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists. Carlos Boozer scored 29 points and 12 rebounds. The Pacers did not even score 7 in double figures.

   Compared with these data, Link's 5 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist are not worth mentioning.

   But even so, this Chinese player still became a sweet potato.

   First of all, Link played less than two minutes, and he played in garbage time. Secondly, as a failed draft pick, Link will be able to occupy two of today's top five seats for the first time in a formal competition. This is already very difficult.

   Although the data is not gorgeous, Link is still quite happy, at least it gave him a good start.

   Picking up the phone after getting up, Link found several unread text messages. These text messages came from Upshaw, George and some college students.

   Link focused on the text messages sent by Upshaw and George. Both of them were sincerely happy for Link.

   Link smiled. It turns out that last night, there were a lot of people standing in front of the TV just to watch them play.

   He didn't know why Adelman suddenly decided to replace himself, but what he knew was that he certainly did not disappoint Adelman.

   Next, Link has two more games to play. After these two games, whether to go or stay, Adelman's evaluation will play a decisive role.

  Thinking of this, Link got out of bed like a chicken blood. He felt safe only when sweating in the training hall.

   Link’s house is not far from the Toyota Center. The Rockets arranged for him. The rent for these ten days is also borne by the Rockets.

   Because of the close distance, Link only needs to walk for about 20 minutes to reach the stadium every day. In the beginning, he couldn't hear the sound of Upshaw's horn every morning, and he was not used to it. But now, after having played a game, Link has gradually adapted to life in Houston.

  As a low-level player, Link is basically only famous among Chinese fans. What are the bottom players? Those who can walk on the street 100 meters away from the stadium without wearing sunglasses without worrying about being recognized.

   Only those diehard fans who bought the team's season tickets, sneezed a few times on the bench, drank a few glasses of Gatorade, and waved towels a few times would know them a little bit.

   This is the bottom NBA player, and Link belongs to one of them.

   Therefore, in the first two days, Link walked to work basically without being disturbed. The only time was before the match yesterday when an old grandmother said that she was familiar with Link and asked if he was a rugby player or a boxing player...

   But when he walked on the street today, Link felt something was wrong. The people around seemed to be watching him, and they kept whispering.

  It felt uncomfortable to be discussed on the street. Link once thought that he was wearing reverse clothes and pants.

   It wasn't until a little boy who was going to school chased Link to sign him near the Toyota Center. Link didn't realize that he didn't wear his clothes upside down, but he really became famous!

  The little boy who asked Link for an autograph was a standard American kid with blond hair and blue eyes. In the past, basically only Chinese people would ask Link to sign.

   After signing, the boy's father shook hands with Link kindly and said politely, "Go on, Link!"

   Link was surprised again, how can an American fan say his nickname? I haven't been playing for long yesterday. Why did you become so famous overnight?

   This guy doesn't know yet, most of them actually met Link through the best five balls.

   After seeing a young boy signing his signature successfully, a lot of fans swarmed around in an instant. In the blink of an eye, Link was besieged. In the crowd, Link felt a little at a loss.

   I used to cut triple-doubles and double-doubles in the Development League, and I never saw myself so famous. But in less than two minutes in the NBA, his popularity is completely different from before.

   A day ago, when he was walking on the street, Houston fans would not even look at him. But today, he has become much-anticipated.

   There was no alternative, Link had to satisfy the fans' requests for autographs and group photos one by one. Fortunately, the crowd density in the United States in the morning is not as high as in China, otherwise it would be strange if Link could get away today.

   After rushing into the underground parking lot of Toyota Center, Link just ran into Jordan Hill.

   Since Link has just joined the team for a few days, he doesn't know much about the Rockets teammates. If you want to say who Link has a better relationship with, it is Jordan Hill. After all, Link got Hill's top five goals yesterday. In the game, Hill also lifted Linkla who fell to the ground.

   Although they are not friends with each other, UU read www.uukanshu.com, but they have some good feelings.

   "Being besieged by fans? You are the first NBA player I have ever seen to walk into the arena without sunglasses or driving, hahahaha."

   Seeing Link's disheveled clothes, Hill laughed unkindly.

   "I thought everyone didn't recognize me." Link spread his hands and killed him. He didn't expect that one day he would become a star.

   Well, a "star" who only scored 5 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist.

"Because of Yao's influence, Chinese players will always be popular in Houston. Moreover, your performance yesterday was also very good. So, you must be known to everyone, Link. By the way, thank you for the pass you gave me yesterday. The ball. We can try that kind of relay a few more times during training today."

   Jordan Hill said, patted Link on the back. Link instantly felt that the team atmosphere of the NBA was stronger than the NBDL by more than one grade.

   Of course, it also depends on the team. The current Houston Rockets are still united due to the presence of Scola and Battier. After a few years, wait for Howard to come, but that's not the case.

   Following Jordan Hill, Link turned left and right into the training hall. Seeing the bright wooden floor and an NBA-level basketball hoop, Link tickled.

   The crowd of fans, the love of teammates and the pretty good performance on the court... Link suddenly felt that his Rockets career seemed to start to improve.

   Of course, Link now has to think about how to avoid over-enthusiastic fans tomorrow morning.

   This is really a happy trouble he didn't even dare to imagine before.
