Reverse Growth Superstar

　　 Los Angeles Lakers, defending champion, complete lineup, just won a wave of two consecutive victories.

　　 Memphis Grizzlies, ninth in the Western Conference, did not make the playoffs last season, the star played with injury.

　　 It seems that these two teams are not at the same level. Haughty Los Angelesers even held up the "We are Bear Hunters" sign in the stands, which shows how confident they are.

　　 However, the Los Angeles hero, the guy in the No. 24 jersey, has a serious face when he warms up on the court. Because he knew that his opponent today would be very difficult to deal with. Tony Allen, this may be one of Kobe's most respected perimeter defensive gates.

　　 Kobe's level of star, naturally has encountered any defense. He was deliberately stepped by Jaylen Rose and "enjoyed" Raja Bell's Sanda-like defensive style.

　　 But only Tony Allen, his defense is very clean, which is actually the reason why Kobe likes him very much.

　　 When warming up, did Kobe always glance at Tony Allen. But he discovered that Tony Allen and the Chinese rookie recently signed by the Grizzlies have been discussing something.

　　 Kobe knows a little about Link's story. He has been so hot lately, Kobe doesn't want to know. As soon as you turn on the phone or open the newspaper, you will more or less see news about Link.

　　 Speaking of it, Tony Allen is rarely so enthusiastic about team rookies. Don't say it was Link who lost the draft, thinking that even if it was a genius as strong as O.J. Mayo, Tony Allen had worked with him on the plane.

　　 Is that yellow-skinned guy really that amazing? It’s so amazing that Tony Allen, who is strict with himself and the newcomer, is so gentle to him?

　　 Before Kobe could see anything, the referee signaled that the warm-up time was over and the two sides were ready to start the game.

　　 "Black Mamba" didn't think much about it, no matter what he lost in the draft, all he wanted was victory!

　　※※※

　　 Rudy Gay is in very good form today, so good that you can't even tell that he is an injured player. Maybe it was Link's outstanding performance that gave Gay a sense of crisis, and maybe it was the face of the defending champion that made Gay excited.

　　 In short, Guy’s status at Staples today is the best time Link has been in the Grizzlies.

　　 Artest is no longer the terrifying beast after suffering injuries and years of devastation. His defense is still excellent, but he can't reach the height of his peak.

　　 Guy tortured Artest’s nerves with his all-out attack methods. God knows when Artest will suddenly lose control of his emotions.

　　 On Kobe's side, he was indeed guarded by Tony Allen. Outside the three-point line, Kobe has tried three shots, but none of them hit.

　　 But using the breakthrough and Kobe's best turn over jumper, "Black Mamba" still scored a lot of points. Superstars cannot be completely defended, and no matter how good defensive players face them, they can only play a limiting role.

　　 The game went through 8 minutes in the personal performance of Kobe and Gay. Los Angeles fans were surprised to find that the Grizzlies were still clinging to the score!

　　 16 to 16, the two sides drew. The qualities shown by the Memphis Grizzlies are not like the ninth in the West.

　　 Watching Guy's performance off the court, Link couldn't help shaking his head. Guy is still pretty good at this time, and he can't compete for the first game.

　　 The Lakers called for a halt to the game. During this period of 8 minutes, the two teams will probably have to rotate their lineups. The Grizzlies are back-to-back away, and Hollins has to control the players' playing time.

　　 As expected, as soon as Guy got off the scene, Hollins stood up and waved to Link, "Come on, it's your turn."

　　 Kobe was already sweating profusely when he left the field. Tony Allen was not dirty on defense, but the confrontation was fierce. Anyone who confronts him will pay a huge price in physical fitness.

　　 At this time, Phil Jackson is arranging tactics for the players who are about to play. Although the "Zen Master" didn't like to talk, he couldn't say no when he was tied by the ninth in the west.

　　 The timeout is very short, Jackson said without a word, the players are about to play. Kobe always felt a little uneasy, so he walked to Jackson silently and leaned down.

　　 "Phil, I think that No. 0 might pay more attention." Kobe remembered Tony Allen's gentleness to Link during the warm-up today and the excellent performance of the 24 points in the previous game. Tony Allen is not a person who is willing to work with the weak. He is also a teammate. Do you see that Tony Allen has a good relationship with Mayo?

　　 The Lakers' bench is a headache, Kobe knows better than anyone. Now that the score is tied, he doesn't want the Lakers to be passive because of a draft loss.

　　 "No. 0? That yellow skin?" Phil looked at the Grizzlies bench, and Link really took off his training uniform.

　　 "Well, do you know him?"

"Of course, the past few days are full of his news, his inspirational stories. But IMHO, there will be several such undrafted picks every few years. Most of them are just short-lived, there are not so many in this world. Wallace. Don't worry, here is Staples. And," Jackson said, he glanced at a man with tattoos in front of him, "Matt will take care of him."

　　 Link stepped into Staples Center, a place he had only seen on games and TV.

　　 On the dome, retired jerseys and honor pennants are undoubtedly reminding people that this is one of the two most historical and glorious teams in NBA history. The other is the Boston Celtics in the east.

When 　　 Link played, he found that many fans in the stands were holding up cards that vilified him. Some of these words even touch on racial issues, making Link feel sick.

　　 Link knows that Los Angeles fans look down upon himself as a draft pick, and the local Los Angeles media must be waiting to see his jokes. But Link doesn't care. After experiencing the baptism of the Development League and the NBA, Link knows a truth-respect is made by himself.

　　 "Boy, what do you look around? Your opponent is here."

　　 At this time, Matt Barnes walked to Link's side and said harsh words.

　　Barnes is not a good thing, he has always been one of the representatives of the "villain" in the NBA. As a member of the "Warrior Gang" in 2007, Matt Barnes has always shown his fierce style.

　　 Most rookies are stared at by such a fierce-looking guy who is full of tattoos and constantly sprays trash talking, UU reading www.uukanshu.com is probably scared.

　　 But instead of being scared, Link couldn't help but turn his attention to the Lakers point guard Fischer who was sitting on the bench.

　　 "Do you have a good relationship with Derek Fischer?" Link asked with a smile.

　　 "Huh?" Barnes was a little dazed when asked by a rookie.

　　 "You can't share everything with your good brother, Matt."

　　 Link remembered that Barnes’s wife would be poached by Fischer in a few years, and felt that the relationship between the two is really delicate now. God knows if Fischer at this time has started beating his wife.

　　 Barnes, who was bewildered by Link's question, didn't react, Link suddenly cut along the baseline and received a pass from Venezuelan defender Vasquez.

　　 After receiving the basketball, Link easily reached the basket. Before Odom, who played at the fifth position, drove the ball back into the basket with one hand.

　　 Link looked back at Barnes, then blinked. He has seen a lot of ruthless people and has long been used to it. Don't think you can fool yourself with a few **** words.

　　 "Fuck, inexplicable guy!" Barnes gritted his teeth. He vowed that he would make the draft loser pay the price.

　　 Those fans and reporters who looked down on Link at the time, saw Link easily complete a dunk, and naturally felt a little embarrassed. Therefore, all of them hope that Barnes can clean up the losing draft.

　　 In an instant, Link became a public enemy of Los Angeles. Only one person gave a approving smile for Link's performance just now.

　　 Kobe, who was on the bench, knew that Link and Barnes were spamming each other. This number 0 may be more interesting than everyone thought.
