: Ninety Four: Before the War (Six/Forty)

When Link broke through fortune, Belinelli's horrified expression impressed Link. He seemed to be able to see every bead of sweat on the Italian forehead, and every change in his expression.
Finally, Belinelli fell to the ground and Link took a jump shot. Chris Paul came out in a panic to make up for it, but to no avail.
The ball is in and the red light comes on. Link suddenly heard the alarm clock ringing, so he opened his eyes suddenly.
At this time, Link did not have Belinelli, Chris Paul, and red-lighted rebounds, but only white walls.
Link smiled, he actually experienced the lore scene of last night again in his dream. I have to say that even if it's just in a dream, Link can still remember the beauty.
After the game in New Orleans yesterday, the Grizzlies rushed back to Memphis overnight. Because everyone was very tired, Link slept very deep yesterday.
Thinking about it now, Link thought that last night was really incredible. Dangling Bellinelli, then complete the lore on a superstar like Chris Paul. In the past, Link could only perform feats like YY in NBA2K games. But now, he actually staged that wonderful moment.
I have to say that the feeling of killing the game is definitely the most enjoyable feeling in the world.
After getting up, Link followed the old habit, turning on the TV while listening to sports news while making breakfast for himself.
When playing in the Development League before, Link used two slices of toast for breakfast. But now after entering the NBA, food can't be so sloppy.
According to the nutritionist’s advice, Link now has to add eggs and milk in addition to toast. Just as Link was getting milk from the refrigerator, he saw yesterday's top five on TV.
Link stared at the TV screen expectantly. He thought to himself that yesterday's lore should be able to occupy one of the top five goals, right?
However, he watched the first four balls, but did not see himself. Just as Link was about to look away disappointedly, he finally saw himself in the Grizzlies No. 0 jersey on the TV with the first goal of the top five yesterday.
"For the first goal, watch the rookie forward knock down the opponent and kill the game on the head of the'Queen Bee'!"
The introduction of this ball is very simple, but it is enough to summarize the wonderful points of this lore.
Link smiled. This is the first lore in his career and the second time he has scored the top five goals. Believe that now, his fame must have skyrocketed.
After watching the five best balls, Link contentedly began to make breakfast. The TV was still on, so Link could also hear sports news.
"The focus of the battle on January 21 will undoubtedly belong to the Grizzlies and the Houston Rockets. What Link said in an interview with the media last night has shown his attitude-I hope you can understand that I will watch everything. It's very open. However, those don't affect my grudges. Link has provoked the Rockets that once abandoned him, and the Houston Rockets don't want to continue to be opened. So, believe me, it will be another wonderful game. ."
"Does anyone still question Link's ability? He has the conditions to create a wonderful game. Therefore, don't miss the Grizzlies vs. Rockets matchup on the 21st. By then, the game may be as excited as the Grizzlies VS Hornets just ended. Human heart."
Hearing the sound on the TV, Link ate all the milk in the glass in one gulp, and then went out quickly.
The Houston Rockets, this is really a team name that makes Link feel so excited as soon as he hears it.
※※※
Today on the training ground, teammates are still discussing Link's wonderful lore yesterday. In the Memphis Grizzlies, things like lore shots are usually done by Rudy Gay. But yesterday I suddenly changed people, and everyone still felt quite fresh.
As a result, Link also gained popularity among his teammates today. At noon, I was touched by all kinds of heads...
Now Link knows why most black players are either flat or bald. Because of that, there is no need to be afraid of being touched. Ginobili had long hair fluttering when he first joined the league, but later he was not honestly shaved.
After the media opening hours came, a bunch of reporters flooded into the training ground of the Federal Speed ​​Center. Everyone was stunned. This may be the most lively media opening period this season.
Once, the Memphis Grizzlies were a team that nobody cared about, had no traffic and did not watch, so there were not many reporters willing to come to the training hall to interview.
But this time, watching a bunch of reporters come in, Link seemed to feel like he was back in Houston, back to the Toyota Center. Only there did he see so many reporters in the training ground.
What was even more unexpected to Link was that after these reporters entered the venue, most of them walked directly in front of him. The microphones were stretched out one by one, and the reporters seemed to be anxious to put the microphone into Link's mouth.
Link backed back again and again with a dazed expression on his face. Although it is not the first time to be interviewed by a reporter, it is the first time that Link has become so highly sought after as a failed draft pick.
"Link, what do you want to say about tomorrow's game?"
"Did Morey's decision make you grudge? Do you think you can help the Grizzlies win?"
"If the game enters a desperate moment again tomorrow, will you still take on the responsibility of killing the game?"
Before Link could react, the reporters raised a lot of questions. It seems that last night's lore and remarks did bring great popularity to Link.
But for now, this popularity is not a good thing for him...
At the same time in Houston, there are also many reporters in the training hall of the Toyota Center. But unlike the Grizzlies, the Houston Rockets have never lacked attention, so the Rockets players have long been accustomed to this situation.
"I know that the draft was very bad, and when I worked with him, I saw that he has potential. I will definitely use 100% of my strength to deal with him, because he is really dangerous." Battier smiled at the camera. Reply.
"I only want to care about my own players, I only care about victory." The Rockets coach Rick Adelman is obviously not as patient as Battier.
Adelman was heartbroken when he mentioned Link. When Link's 10-day short contract expired, he suggested that Morey continue to renew Link. Although Adelman basically only allowed Link to spend a few minutes at that time, he still saw Link's potential.
The results of it? As a result, Morey, who only knew Bo's eyeballs, actually let Link go! At that time, Morey explained to Adelman: "His commercial value has almost been drained, and there is no need to keep him."
Everyone knows what happened after that, Link was acquired by the Rockets' direct competitor, the Grizzlies. And now, the Grizzlies have entered the top eight in the Western Conference with a record of 23 wins and 19 losses, and they have the longest seven-game winning streak of the season. The Houston Rockets were overtaken by the Grizzlies. And now they have only 20 wins and 23 losses, they have gradually been separated by the Grizzlies.
Therefore, when reporters mention Link, Adelman is very impatient~EbookFREE.me~ But it is not that Adelman is unhappy with Link, but he feels a pity! Such a good player was given a surprise to his opponent! If Link was left behind, he might be the eighth player in the West!
Thinking of this, Adelman glanced at the general manager's office on the second floor. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, he found that Morey's office was also full of reporters.
"Cut, I must be telling the reporters again." Adelman snorted, and he could even guess what Morey would say.
"I respect Link. I knew he was an excellent player when he was in the Houston Rockets, but our plan was different."
"Link worked very hard in Houston, and we taught him a lot."
"Hate? Link will never hate the Houston Rockets. We get along like family."
This guy Morey can say anything when facing the camera, but he will never say what he said at the time, "Link has no commercial value for us."
Adelman felt sick when he thought of Morey's hypocritical face. So he did not continue to pay attention to the general manager's office, but turned his attention to Kevin Martin who was being interviewed by the media.
This season, Kevin Martin is undoubtedly the star of this "civilian rocket". He averaged 23.5 points per game this season, the highest in the team.
When training today, Kevin Martin was in very good shape. He scored 15 three-pointers in shooting training, and scored 30 points in the training game lightly! That's right, scored 30 points in a training match of only 20 minutes!
The Rockets have recently won three consecutive victories, which has a lot to do with Martin's excellent state. Adelman believes that in tomorrow's game, Martin will definitely become his important weapon.
Respect Link belongs to respect, but Adelman still has to win the game.
