: One thousand one hundred and twenty-one: the real facade of the alliance

86 to 82, both teams hit less than 40%.
Just looking at the score and shooting percentage, you can never imagine how exciting the Grizzlies vs. Spurs game was.
So much so that the next day, many fans who missed the game said they lost their lives.
Although there are videos to watch, watching the videos while knowing the result of the game is completely different from experiencing the live broadcast.
Not long ago, after Link's ultra-long three-point lore to the Raptors, his aerial drop from the basket gave the fans a visual feast.
Stephen A. Smith, the "Lin Chui", even said on his social media: "Half of the NBA's wonderful shots this season was contributed by Link. Moreover, it is the most exciting half! "
A game against the times, low shooting rate, and no smooth offense, has become a fan of fans in the hearts of fans.
Facts have proved that the rules and the times do not necessarily change the viewing of basketball games, only stars!
Of course, it wasn't just Link who followed this game.
Leonard, who forced Link to "enlarge", also occupied a place in the hearts of fans.
Previously, due to the fact that the Spurs themselves have not received high attention this season, Leonard's popularity has not been too explosive.
But now, when people suddenly discover that Leonard is so powerful, the skyrocketing popularity is a certainty.
Everyone thinks that Leonard is now the most underrated player in the league. A player who can fight Link to the end but loses is certainly not easy.
A double shot, this is the game.
Of course, Leonard is definitely not happy because of this kind of thing.
No matter how many people recognize you, you can only rely on yourself on the basketball court.
In the beginning, when it was not recognized by anyone, Link won the championship too.
Leonard cares not about recognition, but about victory.
But if he wants to win, he can only wait for a while with unwillingness.
After the game, the Grizzlies got a day's breathing time. Before the All-Star Game begins, the Grizzlies still have four games to play.
Among them, there is another game facing the Warriors.
But for Link and Grizzlies generals, facing the Warriors now, they no longer feel special.
After all, they have won the defending champion twice this season, and both times they beat the Warriors particularly badly.
Even if they really lose next time, the Warriors will still be 1-2 behind.
Overall, the Grizzlies players are very relaxed at this time.
At this stage of the season through February, most teams are exhausted.
This relaxed attitude of the Grizzlies is quite rare.
During training this afternoon, a photography team walked into the Grizzlies training hall.
This team was officially sent by the league, and they hoped to shoot an All-Star game for Link.
Probably it was Link who said "Welcome to the 2017 NBA All-Stars" to the camera.
Link shot this simple advertisement between training sessions. To his surprise, the president of the league Adam Joke also came to the scene.
And, just now with the photography team, I was waiting for Link's training to end.
"Thank you, Link. You have contributed so many wonderful games and graphics to the league this season. I believe that with your invitation, more people will definitely pay attention to All-Star Weekend."
As soon as Link finished filming, the joke took the initiative to shake hands with Link.
"I didn't expect you to come, Mr. President. To be honest, I thought you would go to Oakland to shoot Kevin." Link smiled, but after the joke, his face was full of black lines.
Everyone is an adult, and we all know what each other means.
Link was just ridiculing the jokes that have been suppressing himself, and praising the Warriors.
Although Link has been in the United States since he was born, most people still treat him as a foreign player because of his skin color.
It is as if Olajuwon still played for the Dream Team, but both the fans and the "Big Dream" itself still regarded him as a foreign player.
Does the NBA allow a foreign player to be the face of the league? Obviously, they are not willing.
What's more, it's still a league appearance that always speaks badly, doesn't constrain on the court, and is not easy to "discipline".
In other words, the NBA has been struggling and swaying from side to side.
In the history of the NBA, there are only a few examples of foreigners who almost came to the face of the league.
For example, the former Nash, Dirk and Parker and so on.
But although they have enough honor and strength, their popularity is not so high. The sales of jerseys have never reached the first place, and their commercial value is far less than that of American players.
Therefore, they naturally cannot become the facade of the alliance.
But at this time, Link became the breaker.
This season, thanks to the alliance's atmosphere of grouping, Link has unprecedentedly increased in terms of commercial value and popularity.
The fans love him far more than they hate him.
The NBA has always been a business league, and there is no reason why money is not earned. Therefore, when an extremely influential foreign player appears, they will also make concessions.
Now, the joke has made concessions.
Regardless of whether he likes Link anymore, whether or not he introduced the new All-Star voting rules that were collectively rejected by fans in order to contain Link, he must now personally push Link to the front of the league!
To put it bluntly, Link is now the best player to help the league make money. If the joke does not do this, no one else will agree.
Therefore, although the one who heard Link was taunting himself, the joke still accompanied the smiling face.
"Hahaha, you are the most important player in the league. Of course we are the first to come to you. I hope you and your team can continue to show excellent performance. I am optimistic about your prospects this season."
With the joke, he patted Link on the shoulder.
The strong smile on his face is simply very funny.
"Actually, I am here to ask for something. We hope you can participate in next year’s All-Star Weekend Skills Challenge. I believe that fans will be willing to see this. And if you win, you will become The first player in NBA history to win three individual championships. Believe me, this is also better for your publicity."
Afterwards, the joke also made a request to Link, putting it very low!
This may be the first time in NBA history that the president of the league personally asked a player to participate in an All-Star individual event.
The joke is very clear, as long as Link participates in the individual event, the ratings of the All-Star will not worry at all.
"Okay, why not?" Link shrugged and nodded slightly.
Mr. President has licked it like this, there is really no reason to refuse.
Soon, the joke and the official photography team of the league left the Federal Express Arena. And Link has undoubtedly become the key propaganda object of this All-Star Game.
As long as the strength is strong enough, the president of the alliance can't defeat you!
It turns out that the joke's decision to give in now is a very smart choice.
The Grizzlies broke the record in the game against the Sun just the day after the commercial was filmed.
Faced with the rebuilding Sun in this game, the Grizzlies won 19 points without breaking the bank.
Steve Nash, the player development consultant for the Grizzlies and the legendary Suns star Steve Nash, kept shaking his head during the game.
On the one hand, he is happy to see his team win. But on the other side, watching the team that he had dedicated everything to be rubbed on the ground like this ~EbookFREE.me~ he was a little sad.
Devin Booker failed to challenge Link again. Facts have proved that these cutting-edge distances threaten Link's status and there is still a long way to go.
After winning this game, the Grizzlies' record became 50 wins and 4 losses! This makes the Grizzlies the fastest team to win 50 wins in NBA history!
On this record, the Grizzlies left the Warriors and Bulls far behind.
On February 8, 50 wins were achieved in just 54 games, which is likely to be a record that no one can break afterwards.
Thanks to the record-breaking wind of the Grizzlies, Link's all-star advertising has become extremely popular.
Under his star effect, this year's All-Star Weekend will definitely make a lot of money again.
Now, everything seems to be moving in a good direction.
It wasn't until Link and Grizzlies met their mortal enemies for the third time this season.
