Reverse Growth Superstar

: 243: The possibility of becoming an All-Star

As the NBA season has shrunk this year, the regular season has just begun, and voting for the NBA All-Star Game has followed.

For such things, the alliance is naturally very active. The lockout cost them so much money, and they certainly want to make it back as soon as possible. The All-Star Weekend is a great opportunity to host cities and leagues to make money.

Last season’s All-Star vote had little to do with Link. After all, he was just an unknown draft pick. Except for Memphis fans, few people can call this Chinese name.

But this year, when the All-Star voting was completely open, Link was no longer a spectator.

"The first day of the All-Star voting is over. Link is second only to Durant, Griffin and Nowitzki in the Western Conference forward group, ranking fourth!"

"Link's votes are still rising rapidly. He estimates that he will eventually surpass Nowitzki and compete with Griffin and Durant for votes!"

"LaMarcus Aldridge, Pau Gasol, Kevin Love and even Tim Duncan, their votes are behind Link!"

"Link's performance so far this season is really amazing. Four games, a double-double, a 40-point triple-double, the Grizzlies have 3 wins and 1 loss. So far, no game has scored. Under 20. He is also the only 10th rookie on the voting list!"

"In four games, averaging 26.2 points, 7.7 rebounds and 7.5 assists per game, Link is absolutely eligible for the All-Star Game, even if he is only in the second grade!

"Your information needs to be updated. Link's votes have now surpassed Dirk, ranking third in the Western Conference forward group!"

As a Chinese player, Link can be related to the All-Star voting. I have to say that he really got a bonus of 40 points and a triple-double, which made him a good fire.

The second-year Kobe, averaging 15 points per game, made all-star starters in the Western Conference. And Link hits now, the data is much better than Kobe back then. People have no reason not to expect that he was selected as a second-year All-Star team!

In the history of the NBA, not many players have been selected for the All-Star Game in their rookie season. But players who impressed fans in the second grade are also rare.

For Link and the Grizzlies, this is a great honor.

"Man, it seems that our team is going to have another All-Star player!" Sitting in the locker room, Randolph looked at the report about Link and patted his little brother on the shoulder with satisfaction.

Link looked at Randolph contemptuously. Do you think Randolph is in Qualink? In fact, it is silently pretending to be forced!

Why did Randolph use the word "again"? Because now the only Grizzlies selected for the All-Star Game is Randolph himself!

Invisible, Randolph changed to praise himself again.

"Okay Zach, I know you have been selected to an All-Star, don't remind me."

"What are you talking about? I am really happy for you. Congratulations, you are about to become the second player in this locker room to participate in the All-Star Game."

The word "second", Randolph said very strongly. Link now knows what it means to be shameless.

But speaking of it, although Link's votes have ranked third among Western forwards, even surpassing Nowitzki, who just won the championship. But Link still feels that this ranking is a bit low.

When Yao Ming entered the league in his first year, he let the peak tail O'Neal substitute himself in the All-Star Game. Yi Jianlian's second-year votes in the East were second only to James and Garnett. Behind him are players such as Bosh and Pierce. "Dragon King" was pressed into a hurry at that time, and even filmed a video to canvass for himself. Although both are third, but Yi Jianlian of the year did not play Link's current performance.

And now, with such good data, Link is ranked third. Sure enough, players of Chinese descent and Chinese nationality have different degrees of popularity among Chinese fans. Link thought that if he was of Chinese nationality, he would really be the first one.

But, Durant and Griffin in front of Link are indeed two popular monsters, one is the two consecutive scoring champions, and the other is often active in the daily top five. Compared with them, Link really has little advantage.

But it can be ranked third in the vote. If it is retained in the end, it will definitely be no problem to be selected for the All-Star lineup. It is just the difference between playing or not.

Link was extremely excited when he thought of this. First, being able to participate in the All-Star Game is what all players desire. This is the proof of the outside world's recognition of your strength.

Secondly, being selected for the All-Star Game can also activate the bonus clause in Link's new contract. One-time All-Star award will be 1 million. During the three years of the new contract, Link will enter once and Grizzlies will award once.

This is a million dollars! Link used to play in the Development League, earning only 10,000 to 20,000 a year. For Link, who has come up from the bottom step by step, he is still very sensitive to these numbers.

"What are you in a daze? Link." Seeing Link staring at the ceiling, Randolph flicked his forehead.

"Things to make money."

"what?"

"Uh...think about the next two days of the game. Are we about to usher in the first round of back-to-back games this season?" Link quickly changed the subject and put aside the All-Stars in advance. Playing the game right now is the capital for being selected for the All-Star Game.

In the last game, Link scored a 40-point triple-double on Rose, and the bonus came immediately. So, good performance is the foundation of the league.

"Hey, that's not an ordinary back-to-back, Link, it's a four-day three-match! No. 3 will play the Kings at home, and No. 4 will fly to Minneapolis to fight the Timberwolves. No. 5 will have one day to survive, and No. 6 will have to Fly to Salt Lake City to play the Jazz. In the **** shrinking season, it is our players who are ultimately squeezed. "Lan Fat is desperate when he thinks of the next schedule.

For 4 days and 3 matches, it's fine to play in one place, but it happens to change one place each time. This is the most tormenting thing.

Although in these three games, the Grizzlies' opponents are not strong. But competitive sports can't tell the winner than a paper lineup. In that case, the league can already award the championship to the Miamians.

Randolph was in his prime after all, and he was very heavy. This kind of schedule is really a torture for him.

Link frowned, and then silently canceled the extra training plan tonight.

This kind of intensive schedule, you must never get hurt, never get hurt.

On January 3, when the Grizzlies played against the Kings, Link scored 20 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists in front of his little brother Cousins. Conley's return made Link's assists decline to a certain extent, but the impact was not serious.

And from the perspective of the team, Conley's return undoubtedly made the team stronger.

Cousins ​​did not play well today, with only 4 points and 8 rebounds in the game. What really attracted Link was the stubborn guard who was only 1.75 meters tall. In just 16 minutes of playing, he carried the Grizzlies' rough offense and scored 14 points and 3 assists.

A person with a strong heart is truly extraordinary.

In the end, the Grizzlies harvested the king’s leek at home 113 to 96. Cousins ​​said in an interview with reporters after the game, "Lin Ke deserves to be selected as an All-Star."

Sure enough, this guy is not annoying, just like a child. Last year, after doing "naughty things" with Link in the All-Star rookie game last year, Link became a good buddy.

After winning the king, the Grizzlies flew non-stop to Minneapolis in the snow and ice.

Although the Timberwolves have "Spain Golden Boy" Ricky Rubio and No. 2 pick Derek Williams to join ~www.wuxiaspot.com~, the improvement in strength is not obvious. Link 19 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists, Derek Williams 6 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist, making the Timberwolves management so angry!

Losing the draft with the Grizzlies signing is more reliable than their second place!

94 to 86, the Grizzlies won back to back without overturning.

But the tight schedule still caused some problems for the Grizzlies. After rushing to Salt Lake City the next day, Randolph said that his left knee was aching. To be safe, Hollins decided to let Randolph take turns.

In Salt Lake City, the Jazz Twins Millsap and Al Jefferson scored 44 points. Without the Big Black Bears, the Jazz can't stop the attack on the offensive interior. The Grizzlies eventually lost 6 points in Salt Lake City, 88 to 94, and their three-game winning streak was ended.

But Randolph was fine. This was the biggest victory.

At this point, the Grizzlies' 4 days and 3 games officially ended. The record of 2 wins and 1 loss is not unacceptable. The Grizzlies are currently 5 wins and 2 losses, second only to the Thunder and Spurs, ranking third in the West!

Little Gasol's beard is already very long, he doesn't want to keep growing his beard like this.

Randolph ended his troubles, and the Grizzlies temporarily walked out of the terrible schedule of 3 games in 4 days. But Link's trouble has just come.

After playing jazz, Link received a text message while changing clothes in the locker room. Link had a headache when he saw the sender's name.

"Come on Sunday?"

The content of this text message is very simple, but because the sender is Kobe, things may not be so easy.

On Sunday, January 8, the owner of the Staples Center was waiting for Link to drive.
