As the NBA season shrinks this year, the regular season has just begun, and the NBA all star game has been followed by votes.
For such things, the alliance is naturally very positive. They have lost so much money that they want to make it back as soon as possible. The all star weekend is a great opportunity for the host city and the League to make money.
Last season''s all star vote had little to do with link. After all, he''s just an unknown draft. Apart from the Memphis fans, few people can call out the Chinese name.
But this year, when the all star vote was fully open, link was no longer a spectator.
"At the end of the first day of the all star vote, link ranked fourth in the Western forwards group after Durant, Griffin and Nowitzki."
"Link''s votes are still rising rapidly. He estimates that he will eventually surpass Nowitzki and compete with Griffin and Durant for the votes!"
"LaMarcus Aldrich, Paul Gasol, Kevin lefoy and even Tim Duncan, they are all behind link
"Link''s performance so far this season is really amazing. Four games, one double double, one 40 point triple double, the Grizzlies are 3-1. So far, no game has scored below 20. He''s also the only 10 time rookie on the voting list
"Four games, 26.2 points per game, 7.7 rebounds and 7.5 assists per game. Link is definitely eligible for the all star game, even if he is only in grade two!"
"It''s time to update your information. Link has surpassed Dirk in the number of votes, ranking third in the Western forward group."
As a Chinese American player, link can be related to the all star voting. It has to be said that he really got 40 points and 3 pairs of dividends, which made him very angry.
Second year Kobe, with 15 points per game, was selected as the all star starter in the West. And link now, the data is much better than Kobe at that time. There''s no reason why people don''t expect him to be included in the all star lineup as a sophomore!
In NBA history, the rookie season can be selected for the all star game is not many players. But the players who moved the fans in the second grade are also rare.
It''s a great honor for link and the Grizzlies.
"Man, it looks like we''re going to have another All-Star player!" Sitting in the dressing room, Randolph watched the reports about link and patted his little brother on the shoulder.
Link gave Randolph a scornful look. Do you think Randolph is praising link? In fact, they are pretending to be forced in silence!
Why does Randolph use the word "again"? Because now the only Grizzlies have been selected in the all star game is Randolph himself!
In the invisible, Randolph changed to boast himself again.
"All right, Zach, I know you''ve been all star, don''t remind me."
"What? I''m really happy for you. Congratulations, you''re going to be the second All-Star player in the dressing room
Randolph said the word "the second" very seriously. Now link knows what it means to be shameless and invincible.
However, although link''s number of votes is already the third in the Western forwards, even surpassing Nowitzki, who just won the championship. But link still felt that the ranking was a little low.
Yao Ming entered the league in the first year, let the top tail of O''Neal in the all star game to play for himself as a substitute. In the second grade, Yi Jianlian won the votes in the East, second only to James and Garnett. Behind him are bosh, pierce and other players. "Dragon King" was forced to hurry up at that time, and also took video to canvass for himself. Although they are all third, Yi Jianlian did not play the performance of link now.
But now, link hits such good data, unexpectedly also just ranks third. Sure enough, Chinese football players and Chinese football players have different degrees of support from Chinese fans. Link thought that if he were a Chinese nationality, he would really be able to rush to the first place.
However, Durant and Griffin in front of link are indeed two popular monsters. One is the scoring king of two companies, and the other is often active in the top five of the day. Compared with them, link really has little advantage.
But can be ranked third in the vote, if the final hold, will be included in the All-Star lineup is no problem, just play or not play the difference.
At the thought of it, link was very excited. First of all, to be able to participate in the All-Star game is the desire of all players, which is the external recognition of your strength.
Second, being selected for the all star game can also activate the reward terms in link''s new contract. An all-star award of 1 million, the new contract period of the three years, link into the award, grizzly once.
That''s a million dollars! In the past, link played in the Development League, making only $120000 a year. For link, who came up step by step from the bottom, he was still very sensitive to these figures.
"What a fool, link." Randolph saw link staring at the ceiling and flicked his forehead.
"Want to make money.""Ah?"
"Er... I want to play in the next two days. Are we going to have the first back-to-back game of the season? " Link quickly changed the subject, all star put aside in advance. Playing the current game is the capital to be selected into the all star game.
In the last game, link scored 40 points and 3 doubles on Rose''s head, and the bonus was coming soon. Therefore, good performance is the foundation of the alliance.
"Well, it''s not just back-to-back, link. It''s four days and three games! No. 3 is playing king at home, and No. 4 is flying to Minneapolis against Timberwolves. No. 5 will fly to Salt Lake City to fight jazz. Damned shrinking season, we are the players who will be squeezed in the end At the thought of the next race, LAN Pang was desperate.
Four days and three games to play in one place, but also a game for another place, this is the most torturous.
Although these three games, the Grizzlies are not strong opponents. But competitive sports can''t tell the winner or loser than the paper lineup. In that case, the league could have awarded the championship to the Miami people.
Randolph, after all, is in his thirties, and he weighs a lot. It was a torment for him.
Link also frowned, and then silently canceled the training plan for the evening.
This kind of intensive competition, can never be injured, must not be injured.
On January 3, when the Grizzlies faced king at home, link made 20 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists in front of his little brother kausins. Conley''s return to make link''s assists have a certain decline, but the impact is not serious.
And from the perspective of the team, Conley''s return undoubtedly makes the team stronger.
Koshins didn''t play well today, with only 4 points and 8 rebounds in the game. What really attracted link was the stubborn guard who was only 1.75 meters tall. In only 16 minutes of the game, he carried the Grizzlies'' rough attack and dropped 14 points and 3 assists.
A man with a strong heart is really extraordinary.
Finally, grizzlies harvested the king''s leek 113-96 at home. "Link deserves to be selected as an All-Star," he said in an interview after the game
Sure enough, this guy is not annoying, just like a child. Last year''s all star rookie game and link together to do "mischievous things", link as a good friend.
After winning the king, the Grizzlies will continue to fly to Minneapolis in the ice and snow.
Although the Timberwolves have joined "Spanish Golden Boy" Ricky Rubio and top scorer Derek Williams this year, the improvement of their strength is not obvious. Link has 19 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists, Derek Williams has 6 points, 2 rebounds and 1 auxiliary attack, which makes the management of Timberwolves angry!
The drop off draft with Grizzlies is more reliable than the top of their list!
94-86, the Grizzlies won back-to-back without rollover.
But the dense schedule, or let the Grizzlies have some problems. On his way to Salt Lake City the next day, Randolph said his left knee was a little sore. For the sake of safety, Hollins decided to give Randolph a rotation.
In Salt Lake City, the Jazz twins Millsap and Al Jefferson scored 44 points. Without the big black bear, I can''t resist the Jazz''s impact on the offensive interior. The Grizzlies lost 6 points in Salt Lake City, 88-94, and the three winning streak was ended.
But Randolph didn''t get in the way. That''s the biggest win.
At this point, the Grizzlies'' four days and three games have officially ended. The record of 2-1 is not unacceptable. At present, the Grizzlies are 5-2, ranking third in the west after thunder and spurs!
Pau Gasol''s beard has grown so long that he doesn''t want to keep it.
Randolph put an end to his troubles and the Grizzlies came out of the terrible four-day three game schedule. But link''s troubles have just arrived.
After jazz, link, who was changing in the dressing room, received a text message. At the sight of the sender''s name, link had a headache.
"To fight Sunday?"
The content of this text message is very simple, but because the sender is Kobe, things are not so easy.
On Sunday, January 8, the owner of Staples Center is waiting for link.
