Reverse Growth Superstar

: Sixty-three: L.A. Crazy

   "Link became the fourth rookie in the league to score 20+ points in a single game this season! Another undrafted complete counterattack."

   "24 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals and 1 block. A new generation of all-around fighters is born!"

   "The Memphis Grizzlies are celebrating their four-game winning streak, and are only 1.5 games away from the eighth Houston Rockets in the West.

   "Link-the Grizzlies' best signing this season."

   The first time he made a starter, he scored an all-around score of 20+ points, and the media would naturally not deny Link's achievements. Although he is only of Chinese descent and his playing style is not superb, the statistics and achievements are there, and no one can ignore it.

   Link’s reputation is getting bigger and bigger in the league, and it has become so big that it makes all lottery rookies nervous.

   "Link is an excellent player. If I run into him, I have to be careful." Evan Turner, the No. 1 player in the 10th year, commented on camera.

"In college, we never heard of Link's name. But I have to say that his performance in the NBA is wonderful." Wesley Johnson looked a little nervous in 10 years, his performance and expectations this season It's a far cry. If he is defeated again by the undrafted, he will feel ashamed.

   With the lessons learned from George and Hayward, those lottery picks in the same position as Link don’t want to meet the Grizzlies now. You have to beat Link. As a lottery pick, beating a losing pick seems nothing to brag about. But you are going to lose, but you are ashamed.

   It's no good to win, and naturally no one wants to do something embarrassing.

   Link saw the news while sitting in a hotel room on the second day of the game. Less than 12 hours before his last debut in Memphis, Link is now in Los Angeles.

   It is also bad luck. Link has not played a few games for the Grizzlies, but he has already encountered the second back-to-back game. Although the back and forth away game took Link to many places he had only seen in the pictures before, it also made him feel tired as an NBA player.

  When he was in the Development League, Link was thinking, NBA teams have such good away conditions, why do those players complain about being tired?

   But when he truly became an NBA player, he learned that the density and intensity of NBA games are unmatched by the Development League. Although the conditions for NBA players to play away are better, they are also more expensive.

   Today, Link came to Los Angeles, the city he had most yearned for. But sitting in a hotel room, he just wanted to rest, and he had no desire to go out for a while.

   "Link, have you heard? That guy Rudy seems to want to play with an injury." At this time, Tony Allen, wrapped in a bath towel, walked out of the bathroom.

   Since Link joined the Grizzlies, once they play away, they will share the same room. Tony Allen also takes good care of Link. After all, he is still a role player until now. He can empathize with Link's status.

   "Rudy? Didn't he just take a break for a game?" Link curled his lips. He is naturally happy that his teammates can recover from the injury, but why should Rudy Gay return in such a hurry?

   This stupid boy doesn't know yet, people already use him as a competitor.

"Yes, but yesterday I heard him talk to Coach Hollins. It seems to be saying that he wants to play with injuries so as not to affect the team's performance. If it is true, you may have to come back to the bench to accompany me today. Up."

   Link didn't know why Tony Allen told himself this, but he knew that the Grizzlies, like many other NBA teams, have their own small groups among players.

   Obviously, Tony Allen and Guy are not in the same group.

"It doesn't matter. The starting position is his. Whether it's a substitute or a starter, as long as you get on the court and seize the opportunity, it's the same." Link waved his hand. His second ten-day short contract has not been executed yet. Don't think about things like this instead of Guy.

   Guy is also the leader of this team nowadays, he can't compete with that guy. Link's worry is whether Guy's doing so will cause his injuries to worsen.

   The previous life Link was not a Grizzlies fan, so he didn't pay much attention to the Grizzlies. He only remembered one year that Guy seemed to be reimbursed for the season due to a shoulder injury, but he couldn't remember if it was this year...

"You have a very good mentality. You just performed so well yesterday, and you are willing to give up the starter today. However, this may be the reason why you were able to succeed. Um... whether you don't play a starter, I am also I don't want to be put on the starting lineup. After all, the guy at Staples is very ugly." Tony Allen looked at Staples' center of gravity outside the window, and his mind was full of the guy in the No. 24 jersey.

   Feasting, resplendent, drunk and dreaming... Just to listen to these words, the night in Los Angeles is extremely yearning.

   But today, none of this has anything to do with Link. There is no high-end nightclub, no **** posture, and no pleasure of spending money like gold. The only thing Link can do on the night in Los Angeles is to fight a group of muscular men in jerseys.

   To be honest, Link sometimes wants to experience the wonderful and rich off-court life of NBA-level professional players. But so far, he has not had that opportunity. The team is either playing away or on the way.

   If you come, you will be at ease. There is no way to vent your strength in the nightclubs in Los Angeles. Then vent your strength on the court.

   Before the game started, Tony Allen's biggest headache still happened.

   "Tony, you are starting today. You don't need to tell me what to do, right? Look at that lunatic!"

   Hollins didn't say the guy's name, but directly replaced it with the word "crazy".

   There is nothing wrong with that, that guy is a lunatic. In the last game against Wesley Johnson, a first-year rookie, Kobe also showed his benevolent side, "only" scored 33 points.

   If it wasn't for Wesley Johnson's rookie face, he could have scored 40 points.

   Hearing Hollins's arrangement, Tony Allen covered his forehead. But soon, he became bright again. Don't want to play against Kobe in the starting lineup, just because Tony Allen feels tired, but it doesn't mean he will be scared. Since it is inevitable to run into it, it is better to do him a good job.

   As for today’s other starting change, Hollins had already arranged it during the afternoon training. Rudy Gay eventually played with injury and returned to the starting position.

   In this regard, both the Grizzlies and Gay publicized because they were afraid of affecting the team's performance in the playoffs. But in fact it is because only Guy knows.

"Link, remember your role today. I need you to be the sixth man of the team, and I need you to be the core of the bench. So today, your first priority after playing is not to make room for others~www.wuxiaspot. com~ is not to cover for others, but to seek an offensive opportunity for yourself! Be bold and believe in yourself.

   Although he lost his starting position, Hollins still gave Link a relatively important role.

  At this time, it was O.J. Mayo's face that looked bad. He fell on the bench and couldn't even get a sixth man role. But having said that, since Link joined the Grizzlies, he has not seen any game Mayo's efficiency is outstanding. No wonder, this guy will gradually lose trust.

   Link nodded slightly. He was very happy that he could still be reused by the head coach.

  As we all know, the staff structure of the Los Angeles Lakers is actually quite weird.

   Kobe, Gasol, Bynum, Artest and Odom... There is no doubt that these guys are strong players.

But look at their benches. Luke Walton, who has more brains than he can, and Steve Blake, who has a mediocre strength, and Shannon Brown, who has springs on his feet but is otherwise very mediocre, is more than fierce and limited. Special Barnes...

   The Lakers lineup seemed to be cut from the middle, from the best to the bottom players, and the middle players appeared vacant. Therefore, the strength of the Lakers' second team has been criticized.

  Since he is the sixth man today, it means that most of the time he is facing off against the "terrible" second team of the Lakers. It seems that it is not impossible to score high points on the bench.

   Link has not forgotten that at the end of December, several Los Angeles media outlets came forward and questioned him. The arrogant Los Angeles people seem to be less optimistic about losing the draft. They think that players like Link can only become famous in "country places" like Memphis.

   Link can still remember these things, he is very vengeful.
