: Six hundred and seventy-one: Crazy Mamba

The Thunder ended the Grizzlies’ 20-game winning streak, and Kevin Durant seemed to have become the new king of the league.
20 consecutive victories, this is the third longest winning streak in the league, second only to the Rockets’ incredible 22 consecutive victories and 33 consecutive victories created by the Lakers in 1972. At the same time, it is also the league's longest starting winning streak.
But after losing to the Thunder, people will not feel how hard-won the Grizzlies' record is and how great it is.
People will only remember that it was the Thunder and Durant that interrupted this greatness!
On the second day after the game, watching the news of Durant and the Thunder all over the world, Link still felt very uncomfortable. Yesterday, the good mood of becoming the temporary ticket king of the All-Star Game was immediately wiped out.
In this era without the Heat's 27-game winning streak, the Warriors’ 24-game winning streak hasn’t happened and it’s not known if it will happen. Link wanted to lead the Grizzlies to break the Rockets' 22-game winning streak, making the Grizzlies the second longest winning streak in the league.
Even breaking the terrible record of 33 consecutive victories!
But all this was wiped out after losing to the Thunder yesterday.
Their winning streak stayed at 20 games, and the chance of breaking the record again is very slim.
This is the first time Link has been so depressed since the beginning of the season.
After the vote was announced on the day that he lost to Durant, more and more people began to question whether Link was worthy of the status of the vote king.
Especially when Jeremy Lin's average vote count was too high, people expressed great opinions on the fairness of the vote.
"The league voting should be restructured, otherwise which country will have more fans in the future, and which country will be able to determine the starting candidates for the All-Star!"
"Link and the top four players in the All-Star starting voting list have already played against one, that is Kevin Durant. The ending is 0 wins and 1 loss. I don't know the next game against another vote ranking. What will happen to Kobe in the top four. Hopefully, Link won't fall too hard."
Simmons, as always, will not let go of this Black Link's opportunity, "Forget the All-Star ticket king, Link is only suitable for playing the soft egg game of three-point shots with retired old men."
In the eyes of most people, Kobe is simply the perfect candidate to send Link's losing streak. If Link loses to Durant and Kobe in a row, even if no one is black, the number of people voting for Link will definitely decrease.
"Black Mamba", who was absent for a whole season, was very hungry and played quite active since returning to the team.
Although his Achilles tendon ruptured he was not as fast as before, not as high as before, showing the traces left by the years.
But even so, Kobe is still one of the most dangerous players in the league. Even for Link, it was quite dangerous.
In the last game the Lakers played against the Bobcats, Kobe Bryant had 24 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists, almost winning a triple-double.
In the last game against the young Thunder, Kobe scored 31 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists, shooting an incredible 62.6%! His outstanding performance made Durant feel ashamed.
Where is the data that an athlete can come up with after a ruptured Achilles tendon!
Thanks to Kobe's outstanding performance, the Lakers finally killed the overwhelming Thunder this season at home.
The Lakers defeated the Thunder, and the Thunder defeated the Grizzlies yesterday. Therefore, the duel between the Lakers and the Grizzlies has become interesting again.
You know, before the Achilles tendon ruptured last season, Kobe was still a super killer that averaged 27.3 points per game!
In the next game, Kobe will be a guest at the Federal Express Arena. There is no doubt that many people are waiting to see Link's jokes when the Grizzlies just lost to the Thunder.
Durant is difficult to deal with, and the bloodthirsty Kobe is even harder to deal with. If you think you are facing an ordinary 35-year-old player, the ending will be the same as Durant a few days ago.
Although the Lakers' current record is only 11 wins and 11 losses, it is far from outstanding, but they must not be treated as a weak team.
Link really didn't want to lose anymore. He wanted to go back to yesterday and play a game with the Thunder again. But this kind of thing can't happen, so Link can only put all his energy on the game with the Lakers.
Losing to the most sensitive opponent at the most sensitive moment, Link's desire to win has been fully mobilized.
On the other hand, Kobe, who is not convinced by the old, is also very concerned about this game.
No matter when, Kobe is the man who wants to win. Given the current state and configuration of the Lakers, it is very difficult for them to enter the ranks of the championship.
Nash is almost a habitual injury, and he can play 20 games in a season.
Pau Gasol is completely lost under the current system and has lost his superstar aura.
What are the remaining players for the Lakers? Jodie Meeks averaged 7.9 points per game last season. Once the high-profile No. 4 pick, but no season in his career has been able to score in double figures Wesley Johnson.
Jordan Hill, who is mediocre and uncharacteristic, Thackeray, "The Cornerstone of the Lakers", loses the draft Baezmore...
In addition to Kobe and Gasol, the rest of the team seems to be hard to come out.
But even so, Kobe maintained his ambition, and really led the team to defeat the Thunder a few days ago.
The stronger the opponent, the more excited Kobe is! The Lakers are now more like the Grizzlies four years ago. They may not be able to win the championship, but anyone who plays against them has to peel off!
Link and Kobe's personal relationship is very good, but this does not affect their fighting each other on the court.
It just so happened that Kobe really wanted to see it. In the All-Star Game that year, the stunned youth who trained with him at four o'clock in the morning became the strongest player in the league.
The night before the game, Link invited Kobe to a meal. The two hadn't seen each other for a long time.
But as soon as Link went home, he received a message from Kobe, "Get ready, from now on, the black mamba will enter the attack mode."
Link curled his lips. If he loses to the Thunder and then to the Lakers, he might be off by himself.
In any case, you must withstand the "black mamba", no, it's the "crazy mamba" attack.
※※※
Bill Simmons's column articles have recently started to soar again.
Few people in the media have the upper hand in the matchup with Link, and Bill Simmons is one of the few. For this reason, Simmons's popularity has become higher than before.
In this world, there is finally a media person who can manage Link.
Such things naturally made Simmons feel good, and Link's loss almost became the source of his good mood. And tonight, Simmons will have another chance to be happy again.
After returning home, Simmons ate dinner in a hurry, and said to his wife bitterly, "My dear, I am afraid the two children and the endgame after dinner have only come to help clean up. Know, the ball tonight It’s very important. I’m being urged to write articles over there. So, I have to work overtime in the office."
Seeing Simmons's pitiful eyes, his wife nodded gently, "Go on, dear, take a break."
In this way, Simmons can use the banner of work, shake off all family affairs, and lock himself into an "office" with five TV screens and able to watch five games at the same time.
It's hard to say what is the most shocking aspect of this incident. Is he able to watch five games at the same time, or does he call the place where five games can be watched grandly as the "office".
Simmons's life is definitely the envy of most fans, especially the slightly older fans.
At any time, as long as he wants to watch the game, he can use his work as a guise, and enjoy the personal time that belongs to the fans in a quiet and legitimate way.
Simmons tried this trick repeatedly. When his wife was pregnant, he used the excuse of going to Las Vegas to watch the summer league and gambled for two days.
Simmons turned on the TV excitedly, and he planned to carefully record every detail of Kobe's abuse of Link tonight.
Tomorrow, he still hopes to attract attention with these things.
As soon as the TV was turned on, Simmons saw David Aldridge being interviewing Link on the sidelines before the game.
And this question, Simmons happened to be very interested.
Aldridge asked Link, "Many people say that Bill Simmons was the first media person to lose out~EbookFREE.me~ What do you think? Do you think he really embarrassed him?"
"What!?" Link's eyes widened in surprise, "I thought I was going to talk about Kobe, but in the end, I talked about Bill Simmons, who is such an inexistent character."
"Ha! What a botched trash talk!" Simmons yelled in front of the screen, "Teacher Bird should be taught how to spray people."
"But if you want to talk, let me talk. Bill Simmons embarrassed me? Please, do I care what a coward hiding behind the screen said?"
Link said, pointing to the camera. He knew that Simmons was looking at him somewhere in Boston.
"Coward!? Damn!" Simmons was a little angry, but he was not completely irritated yet. After all, in this game, he still has the "golden beater" Kobe.
Link can win the crazy Kobe first, let's talk about other things.
Simmons believes that no one can win over the hungry Kobe, not even Link!
