: 212: It's better to go fishing
The 2011 na draft conference was indeed a bit deserted, because on the same day, the player representatives and the bosses met for 4 hours. The players all wore the same gray T-shirts with the words "persistence" printed on their chests to express to the league. Their hardline stance-insist on the player union's proposal to reject a five-year salary reduction of 500 million dollars.
But the final result was that the negotiations did not make any progress. The two sides agreed to negotiate again on June 28 and 30. If it is not successful by then, the free agent market will not open, and na will officially enter the suspension!
In this context, the popularity of the draft has plummeted. But even so, there are still one or two news items that have caught people's attention. For example, Oj Mayo was traded to the Brooklyn Nets by the Grizzlies!
"The rumors about the Mayo trade have been going on since the middle of last season, but last season everything was calm and nothing happened. Just when everyone thought Mayo would continue to play for the Grizzlies, Chris Wallace suddenly Let's go!"
"Mayo was thrown away like a burden. His playing style and current state are really not suitable for the Grizzlies. Moreover, the Grizzlies have also found the player they really want to develop-Link! Look at the Nets Bargaining chips, the Grizzlies almost sent Mayo White to Brooklyn. This shows how much the Grizzlies want to get rid of their flower show."
"I hope Mayo can find good form in Brooklyn, because next season is the last year of his rookie contract. Whether he can sign a big contract next year depends on Mayo's performance in Brooklyn next year! Hopefully! With Deron, Mayo can perform well enough."
Although Mayo is no longer a highly anticipated supernova, after all, he has been on fire. Suddenly being traded in the draft is still quite shocking.
But in this deal, no one cares about Jimmy Butler. Even, many people don't know who Jimmy Butler is.
But this neglected rookie is precisely the focus of the Grizzlies deal!
Chris Wallace believes that Jimmy Butler can be trained as the next Tony Allen. But the actual performance of a rookie is often far from the template.
At the beginning, Mayo was considered the upper limit and the lower limit of Kobe Bryant.
In any case, when the draft was over, Link's hanging heart was finally let go. After that, he can start enjoying his vacation life with peace of mind.

"You can't refuse me this time, Link. The offseason has come, and you can no longer use training as an excuse."
Randolph kept "pressing" on the phone, so Link didn't even have a chance to quibble.
It happened two days after the draft. The bored Link approached Randolph and asked him what arrangements he had. Moreover, professional fishing gear has been prepared, ready to go to the Mississippi River for a good harvest.
As a result, Randolph told Link this time, "Fishing? Do you really think that Na players’ holiday life is only fishing?"
"Besides fishing, can you recommend any better activities?"
"Are you interested in the auction? In New York."
"I'm not interested, I don't buy things, and I don't play collecting." Link curled his lips. Link has only seen things like auctions on TV.
"You are silly, the auction is just a cover. The dinner after the auction is the beginning of the truly exciting moment! In order to support the auction, the organizer invited many celebrities to participate. As a famous player of the New York Knicks, I Naturally, I was invited. Link will be very lively that night, I decided to bring you, you should thank me!"
"My Cao" heard Randolph say that, Link deeply experienced what is called thick-skinned invincible! The well-known Nima player in New York, the well-known tumor in New York is almost the same.
"Let's go, I'll take your kid to meet the scene. Anyway, I'm a little star, so I can't go fishing every day in the Mississippi.
"I think about it, Zach. I'll give you an answer tonight, okay?" Link waved his hand. He was really not interested in any dinner party, and he was not interested in meeting stars.
It turned out that Randolph called again before the afternoon. Thus, there is the previous dialogue.
"You can't refuse me this time, Link. The offseason has come, and you can't use training as an excuse."
"I"
"Besides, it's good for you to know more people. Your career will last for at most 20 years, and you will retire after 20 years. Can't you find other ways? Do business, play music or something."
"My career has just begun, and Zach" Link is speechless. Randolph can use any excuse to "coax" himself.
"I swear that if you go with me, I will never put popcorn in your locker again."
"Go!" Link probably settled, Randolph stuffed popcorn in his car 2 times and 6 times in the locker this season.
He is like a giant baby, who is not tired of this kind of prank. After all, Link is a rookie, and it's normal to be groomed. Link can already imagine Jimmy Butler's "happy life" in his first year with the Grizzlies.
Now, there is finally an opportunity to avoid pranks, Link didn't even think about it, must seize it!
It seems that the banner that Randolph has been tricked by will be handed over to Jimmy Butler from Link’s shoulders.
In this way, Link started his first event since the beginning of the holiday-a trip to the New York auction.
※※※
When he mentioned New York, the first thing Link thought of was that the Knicks, Nets, Spike Lee, Ewing, Anthony, and Locke Park were all basketball labels.
Don't look at the Knicks' operations in recent years, but everyone must admit that New York is indeed a hometown of basketball. The basketball atmosphere here is very good, and the basketball background is also very strong.
But in Randolph's eyes, New York was completely different from Link. If he only had basketball in his eyes, Randolph would not have been treated as a cancer in New York.
Feasting, staying up all night, and a colorful world is what Randolph looks like in New York.
Standing in the hall of the auction in a suit, Link always felt that he was out of place. Those female stars? He mostly didn't know him. As for Congressman and official, Link couldn't even call his name.
Although occasionally several people greet Link, the embarrassing thing is that Link usually doesn’t know who the other person is.
There are also people who know, New York director Spike Lee is on the scene today ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ In addition, Link also saw the New York rap industry leader Ja-z. But there was always someone by their side, and Link didn't know how to talk to them.
For a moment, Link really felt that he might as well go fishing on the Mississippi River!
Throughout the auction, Link just stood there, holding a wine glass. Except for occasional greetings, he doesn't know what to do!
Randolph? That guy has disappeared from the beginning of the auction, and God knows who is going to talk about life with.
Originally, Link had never attended this kind of American gathering. Most of the so-called stars, bosses and officials at the scene did not know Link. Let's go early, it's not very good, it feels like a big deal.
So Link was so tormented, waited for the banquet to end, and then took Randolph's meal.
"Can I have a drink with you?" At this moment, Link heard someone calling himself, turned his head to look, but his eyes were attracted by a deep groove.
"Damn!" Link's apple slid up and down, and he was swallowing!
Link immediately looked away awkwardly, only then could he see the woman's face clearly. The woman's appearance, Link, felt a little familiar, but couldn't remember her name.
After seeing the depths and faces of others, Link realized his rudeness and immediately responded respectfully, "This is my honor, ma'am, my name is Link, a player of the Memphis Grizzlies. ."
"I know you, kid." The woman was not angry, but was proud of Link's reaction just now. "I watched your game this year. You are really a dark horse. I didn't expect to meet you here. My name is Alisha Dushku, and you seem to be completely off the glass, Link. Where do you look?"
