698: Conversation between teammates

"Link: I'll win another 10-game winning streak!"

"Grizzly superstar: It's no hard to reach a historical record."

"Kevin Durant: Link is just too arrogant."

The match between the Grizzlies and the Bucks clearly produced many exciting scenes, but the day after the game, major media were still talking about the grudge between Link and Durant, and the Grizzlies and the Thunder.

Of course, Link's meaning was basically misinterpreted by the media. Or rather, they were deliberately misinterpreted.

Link never said it was easy to win 10 consecutive games, and the reporters actually understood it. But whether they would like to report the facts is another matter.

Overnight, the media helped Link establish a "definitely win another 10 consecutive wins". There is no doubt that fans around the world are waiting to see the Grizzlies' jokes.

Indeed, the Grizzlies have done everything this season and have destroyed most teams in the league.

But even for the Grizzlies, 10 consecutive wins are not easy, and they are not something you can get. If you want to keep your energy in 10 games and ensure that you won't lose your car, sometimes this kind of thing is not just about having enough strength.

In 10 games, no one knows what unexpected or accidental events will happen. As long as you go on a business trip, Link's goal will be shattered.

As a result, countless media began to analyze how likely the Grizzlies could be to win the 10th league. Some reporters have even started to write articles that mocked Link in advance, and they will not miss this Black Link's opportunity.

But surprisingly, the famous Bill Simmons did not speak out this time. Perhaps, this guy is worried about the dunk contest. Or maybe he is addicted to women's clothing and can't extricate himself. The bet with Link may have opened the door to a new world.

Faced with such great public pressure, everyone thought Link must have been overwhelmed.

But in fact, when Link woke up from bed at home the next day, he had no other feelings except to feel refreshed.

After finally surviving the torturous away game back to back, Link went to Memphis to have a comfortable sleep. The next morning, Link rowed from the backyard to fish in the middle of the lake for a while, which was already a big way for him to relieve stress.

When Link appeared in the Federal Express Arena at noon, he had already become the confident and energetic Link again.

After being exhausted in Milwaukee, Link's condition has basically recovered completely.

"You kid is quite confident, what? Do you really want to win another 10 consecutive games?" Randolph was a little surprised when he saw Link on the training ground.

Anyone will feel the pressure. People always think that only teams with poor grades will be stressed. Teams with good grades don’t have to worry about anything, so naturally the players will be under less pressure.

But the fact is just the opposite. Teams with good grades, especially those with the highest ranking in the league, tend to be more stressed.

Because they are the focus of the public, they are unwilling to fall behind and have to guard against other teams at any time.

And the star of the league's No. 1 team is under a lot of pressure.

But in Link, Randolph never saw him overwhelmed.

"What is the pressure or not? The 10-game winning streak is what the reporter said, it's all my business. Besides, I don't care about the 10-game winning streak. As long as I can defeat the Thunder, the rest will follow the reporter."

Link waved his hand. His biggest trick to get rid of the pressure was to fart the reporters' words.

If you really compete with the reporter, you will be surrounded by them.

In the next game, the Grizzlies' opponent is the Sacramento Kings, who are currently 14 wins and 23 losses. Although Cousins ​​and Isaiah and Thomas have made great progress this season, the Kings still have not been able to get rid of the embarrassing situation of losing their feet.

Since the Kings are not too strong, today's training is mainly about recovery.

Link stayed in the physiotherapy room for a long time and had a relaxing massage for a long time.

I thought it would be a pleasant and relaxing day, but in the therapy room, Link found that Conley's expression was not right.

The guy looked frowning, as if he was the one who was under the pressure of 10 consecutive victories.

"Mike, is there anything?" Link asked with concern. As the team leader, he had an obligation to care about his teammates.

Although Conley entered the league three years earlier than Link, because Link played four years after college, he and Conley were actually the same age as Conley. Therefore, there is no particularly obvious relationship between seniors and juniors between Link and Conley.

Therefore, there is basically no gap between the two of them and they always have something to say.

But every time I think of this, Link feels a little sad. The pain of an older rookie... I have only been playing in the league for a few years, and it is already 25 or 26.

"It's nothing. We're going to work hard for the next month, Link!" Conley hurriedly squeezed out a smile, as if he didn't want to distract Link from his affairs.

"Come on, you won't lie, Mike. It must be an All-Star business, right?" Link curled his lips. Conley was a good gentleman. This was true on the court and in life.

After all, he lived in the Olympic champion family since he was a child and received a good education. When others didn't know what the piano was, he could already play wonderful music with that thing.

Therefore, Conley, who has a good lifestyle, generally has no troubles outside the court. What about the Grizzlies? The Grizzlies have such a good record this year, so there is no troubles.

So, there is only one thing that can bother Conley - All-Stars.

In the original history, until the year Link traveled, Conley still didn't know what the All-Star tasted. People say he was the most underrated player, and he was the biggest loss in the All-Star game.

But no matter how people feel sorry for it, Conley has never been selected as an All-Star, which is the fact. Once you take out your resume in the future, you have never even entered the All-Star, which is a pity.

Conley himself must be very distressed about this. After all, who doesn't want to be called by the All-Star Game? That's a affirmation of a player! What's more, it's just that when he's completely qualified.

Conley smiled, "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you, Link."

Link remembers that Conley was very frustrated last year because he was not selected as an All-Star. At that time, he told Conley that we can do it next year.

But this year, the situation is still not optimistic. In the latest vote, Curry, Paul, Parker and Lillard all fell on Conley's head.

Although the All-Star substitute was not voted by fans, the number of votes still has some reference value.

If you fail to get good results in voting, it will be very dangerous to be selected as a substitute.

Maybe because of this, Conley is so distressed.

"My ultimate goal is not to be selected into the All-Star lineup. My ultimate goal is greater than this goal, that is, the championship. However, when it comes to the All-Star, it is indeed one of my personal goals," Conley did not hide it after being exposed, but talked to Link.

"I told myself last season that I wasn't selected because I didn't do enough. And this season, I feel like I've performed a lot better and our team is where we want to be. We are the best team in the league, and it's a good time to be selected for the All-Star. If that doesn't happen, that would be awful. To be honest, I'm getting more and more upset about it."

After saying that, Conley smiled bitterly, "I'm sorry, Link, I didn't mean to complain to you. I know that you have a lot of things to worry about."

"Don't say that, Mike, I'm glad you can talk to me about this. Of course, I won't say anything like you're going to be an All-Star, because I've said that kind of nonsense last year."

"Hahahahahahahahaha, is there anyone who comforts people like you."

"No, I'm not comforting you. I mean, I won't say anything empty, but I'm willing to work hard with you on the basketball court. We still have time, don't we? Before the All-Star substitute is fully established, we still have time to do what we can. If we still can't be selected after doing our best, it's not your regret, it's the All-Star Game. Believe me, the loss is the All-Star Game, not you." Link did not laugh, but stared at Conley's eyes very seriously.

Conley gradually put away his smile, and he found that Link was serious.

Yes, what else can you do besides showing off?

"I know, I will do my best to assist you in winning 10 consecutive victories and defeating the Thunder. You're right, we still have time."

Conley's expression was no longer frowning, and he became full of fighting spirit.

Link didn't know if Conley could be selected as the All-Star, so he didn't dare to make a promise. After all, in the West where even Paul is likely to be able to play as the All-Star substitute, it's really difficult for the point guard to become the All-Star.
