: One Thousand and Eighty: Those Christmas Surprises

　　 "Merry Christmas, Link!"
　　 December 24, Christmas Eve.
　　Rachel raised his juice and clinked glasses with Link. For the first time, the young couple spent Christmas together as a family unit.
　　 Tomorrow is the Christmas battle. It stands to reason that the Grizzlies should go to Cleveland to prepare for the battle today.
　　 But because of the festival, Georgel decided to let the players spend the festival at home. Early tomorrow morning, we will rush to Cleveland.
　　 Although it is good to be able to spend the holidays at home, it also means that the Grizzlies players will have a very tight preparation time tomorrow. Basically, after getting off the plane, you have to go directly to the Quicken Loans Arena to prepare.
　　 You can’t have both fish and bear paws.
　　 But it’s worth it to get a chance to spend Christmas with my family.
　　 The Grizzlies have had Christmas battles almost every year these seasons, and their attendance rate is even higher than that of the Los Angeles Lakers!
　　 So the Grizzlies players want to spend Christmas at home, it is completely a luxury.
　　 This year finally had this opportunity, and the players couldn’t ask for it.
　　 Link is also very happy, not only because he can spend a Christmas Eve with peace of mind, but also because this is the first time he has spent Christmas in his small family.
　　 Although there are only Link and Rachel in this small family now, it is already lively enough.
　　 "Yes, this is a Christmas present for you." After drinking the juice, Link handed a small gift box to Rachel.
　　Rachel opened the gift happily and found that the contents of this little gift box were not small at all.
　　 Inside the gift box, put a car key!
　　Rachel couldn't help covering her mouth, very surprised.
　　 "Link, did you really buy it?"
　　 "Of course, there is still room in our garage anyway." Link smiled.
　　 While shopping a few days ago, Rachel saw an advertisement for the latest Chevrolet Camaro, so she casually said something really beautiful.
　　 I didn't expect Link not only remembered it in his heart, but actually bought it back.
　　 "Thank you, Link. I also prepared a surprise for you, um...but I don't know if you like it."
　　 "Come on, I've waited long enough for this surprise. You shouldn't tell me there is a surprise a few days ago."
　　 "Hmm..." Rachel said, stood up and walked to Link's side, then put her mouth to his ear.

　　 On the plane to Cleveland, the Grizzlies players seemed to be still in the mood for Christmas Eve last night.
　　 Gasol kept showing off his daughter's greeting card for him, with the old father's smile on his face.
　　 Carter raised the razor sent by his daughter, feeling tears coming out of his eyes.
　　 "Old Flying Man" and his wife are already divorced, and their daughters follow their mother more. Therefore, most of the time Carter is in the "empty nest old man" state.
　　 Carter is very pleased to receive a gift from his only daughter this year.
　　 After a discussion, everyone turned their eyes to Link, who had not spoken.
"Link, it’s the first time I spent Christmas with Rachel as a couple. Yesterday must have been unforgettable." Randolph was the first to take the lead. Although "Big Black Bear" is now 35 years old, you never Count on him to be serious in non-match time.
　　 "Yes, yeah, what gift did Rachel give you? It must be a very sweet gift!" Tony Allen did his part to cooperate with Randolph.
　　 If the Grizzlies didn't have them, they would definitely laugh less.
　　 Link scratched his head embarrassedly, recalling what Rachel whispered in his ear yesterday.
　　 "My gift...something special."
　　 "Oh? Could it be ? Damn, I don't think 2K goddess has this habit."
　　 "Can you have something normal in your mind, Zach." Link gave Randolph a blank look, then took a deep breath and smiled.
　　 "I'm going to be a father, guys!"

　　 While the Grizzlies players were still arguing about whether Link’s kid should be called Lin Daxiong, LeBron James had walked into the Quicken Loans Arena alone.
　　 Time flies quickly, unconsciously, this is the third year James has returned to Cleveland.
　　 When he returned to Cleveland, James was full of ambition. He hopes to bring a championship to his hometown, and there is more than one.
　　 But now, two seasons later, the Cleveland Cavaliers still have nothing but the Eastern Conference championship.
　　 In five days, James will be 32 years old. He knew that his peak period had become a thing of the past.
　　 From now on, his ability will no longer grow wildly. Not to mention progress, he will have to spend a lot of effort even if he wants to maintain his current state in the future.
　　 He knew that there was not much time left for him to hit the championship.
　　 This year, the Cavaliers are all in great shape, and Owen and Love have also played their best since the formation of the Big Three.
　　 There is no doubt that this is the most promising year for James to lead the Cavaliers to the championship.
　　If they can’t do it this year...no, they have to do it!
　　 James shook his head and began to warm up by shooting himself on the court.
　　 How many years has he not won the Christmas War? James himself can't remember.
　　 But this year, he is going to pay his respects to Cleveland on Christmas Eve.
　　 In any case, he is going to fight Link to the end today.
　　 A few hours later, the Quicken Loans Arena began to become lively.
　　 At the junction of the underground parking lot and the player passage, countless reporters crouched here to take pictures of the Grizzlies players entering the field.
　　 For NBA players, this short period is like walking the red carpet. Everyone will show their most glamorous side in casual clothes here.
　　 But just under the lens of the reporters, Link ran into the player tunnel with vigorous steps.
　　 Most of the time, when players walk through this section, they don’t want to stay in front of the camera for a while.
　　 Link is good, and ran over, as if deliberately avoiding the camera!
　　 "What is that guy doing? Are you in a hurry to go to the bathroom?" The reporter who was filming was speechless, and there was only one explanation for going to the bathroom.
　　 However, Link hurried back to the locker room for a reason.
　　 The Christmas gifts he prepared for his teammates have already been placed in the dressing room in advance.
　　 Lin was the first to ran into the locker room just to make sure that everything had been arranged.
　　 After a while, the rest of the Grizzlies also followed.
　　 Randolph was the first to open the door. As soon as he walked into the dressing room, he saw Link standing in the middle of the dressing room with his hips akimbo, so "Big Black Bear" started to complain again.
　　 "Lin Ke, what did you run just now? I thought something happened and followed you two steps! Damn, I'm going to the top five again tomorrow."
　　 Korandorf was halfway through speaking, and suddenly there was no voice.
After 　　, more and more people poured into the locker room. And their reactions are the same as Randolph, all stupid!
　　 I saw a golden championship belt on every player's locker at this time!
　　 On the belt, the words "World Champion" are also written. And each belt is engraved with the name of the corresponding owner.
　　 The craftsmanship is so good that it looks like a gold belt for real fighting events.
　　 "Link, these are..."
"These are the Christmas gifts I gave you this year. I hope you can all like them. It’s boring to give championship rings all the time~EbookFREE.me~Sometimes I have to change some new tricks. I think the gold belt is just Not bad. Of course, I also hope that in half a year, we can stand on the real podium wearing this belt. So, today's final preview, everyone will perform well!"
After 　　 Link finished speaking, he solemnly awarded the belt one by one to his teammates.
　　 Seeing this house-like scene, Georgel and Snyder couldn't help laughing.
　　 Indeed, this looks very naive, just like every little boy dreams of a championship.
　　Professional wrestling and professional boxing are both very popular sports in the United States, so many men dreamed of winning a gold belt when they were young.
　　 Today, Link let them realize their wish.
　　 Men are so naive sometimes. This seemingly naive scene has undoubtedly ignited the championship hearts of all the Grizzlies.
　　 When Carter, who was over 40 years old, took the gold belt from Link's hand in one month, he smiled like a little boy.
　　 When Link was photographed selecting gifts for his teammates, he was criticized by the media for not paying enough attention to the game and not respecting the Cavaliers.
　　 But in fact, Link values ​​this game more than anyone!
　　 He believes that after the gift is given, his teammates will be able to show a more life-threatening state.
　　 In the end, all the Grizzlies players wore their own golden belts and took a picture together.
　　 Soon, this group photo was posted on social media.
　　Undoubtedly, Link's arrogant behavior of privately awarding awards has to be pointed out by people again.
