865: Continue to whisper

The Grizzlies lost to the Spurs, and their record of losing streak was ended.

Although this is not the end of the world, it still caused an uproar in Memphis.

After losing to the Spurs, the Grizzlies retreated from the No. 1 position in the West, and the Golden State Warriors replaced them.

The Warriors undoubtedly achieved surprising results. You should know that the Golden State Warriors have been synonymous with the NBA bad team in recent years.

The last time they won 50 games in a single season was in the distant 1993-94 season. Curry was only 6 years old in the "Splash Brothers" and Thompson was 4 years old.

In the ESPN's forward report before the start of the season, they predicted that the Warriors would be ranked fifth in the West at most and would only win 52 at most.

However, they are now surpassing the arrogant grizzly bears, which is very shocking.

So at the post-match press conference, the reporters prepared countless questions.

Although Link failed to appear due to injury, he still attended the press conference and became the darling of reporters.

"Link, how do you think of this losing streak? Will this put you in trouble?"

"The Grizzlies have not fallen from the No. 1 position in the West for two seasons. What does the floating performance of the Grizzlies this year mean?"

"Link, I know, the season has just begun and the final ranking will change a lot. But the Golden State Warriors seem unstoppable. Do you still have a chance to regain the No. 1 in the West?"

Link sat on the stage. He hadn't seen the media reception room in the Fed Express stadium so lively for a long time.

Yet, for two seasons, everyone has become accustomed to the Grizzlies' devastating offensives and used to them winning one victory after another.

Suddenly, this "inertia" is broken, which will naturally cause discomfort for everyone.

From another perspective, at least in most people's minds, the Grizzlies are indeed a top-notch team.

They suddenly became "not strong", which caught the reporters off guard.

Link looked at the reporters in the audience and acted very calmly. As the star of the Grizzlies, he was calmer than everyone present.

After the reporters finished asking, Link spread his hands easily and slowly approached the microphone.

"I thought the end of the world was coming after you said that. What are the benefits of NBA? The benefits of NBA are that after 48 hours, we have a new game to play. We just lost one game, and there is nothing scary about it."

Link answered all the reporters' questions in one sentence, and their questions were not a problem for Link.

"So, how do you think of Draymond Green's attack on the Grizzlies? After the game, Draymond Green said on social media that the myth could not continue, which is obviously an indication of the current situation of the Grizzlies."

A reporter stood up unyieldingly, as if he wouldn't let Link admit that he was afraid and wouldn't want to go back.

"Green is right, the myth cannot continue. On the day, the Warriors' myth will be ended. At that time, I will wait for him." After saying that, Link stood up and left the media reception room.

Also walking with Link is head coach Dave Joggel, who was worried today's game. Now he is very glad that Link finally ended his two-week cultivation.

"Do you regret letting me rest for so long?" Link looked at Jogel and asked jokingly.

"Don't regret it, keep the green mountains there, aren't you afraid of burning firewood."

"Hahaha, where did you learn this sentence?"

"On TV." Joggel turned his head, "But we can't lose in the next game. The competition is very fierce this year, and we can't fall behind."

"Don't worry, Dave, we will get back on track when the next game begins." Link patted the coach on the shoulder, then pushed the door and walked into the locker room.

After Link walked in, the locker room became quiet instantly, and everyone looked up at Link.

"Link, we" Gasol stood up and looked very guilty.

"We are all normal, let's prepare for the next game." Link waved his hand and did not worry about the defeat in this game anymore.

Green thought he had won? No, the war has officially begun.

The San Antonio Spurs have not attracted so much attention for a long time. After ending the Grizzlies' record of losing streak, the Spurs finally let out a sigh of anger.

However, as a winner, the Spurs are far less topical than the Grizzlies.

The next day, people talked more about the Grizzlies' defeats rather than the Spurs' victory.

"We all know that the Grizzlies are about to welcome Link in the next game. This is their only hope to get out of the situation, but the Miami Heat is not a good opponent."

"Wade: We will not show mercy, we will attack with all our strength."

"Can Link drag the team out of the mud? Although the Heat have lost LeBron, they are still full of fighting spirit. They have lost three consecutive games recently, and no one is more eager for a victory than the Heat."

The Grizzlies and the Heat met for the first time in the new season and became very eye-catching at this critical moment.

The two teams that competed for the finals last season will surely spark in the new round of battle.

Not only the fans are paying attention to this game, but many NBA stars are also looking forward to this game.

Kobe said, "Link has no problem, he can always solve the Grizzlies' trouble."

Paul George also supports his college teammates, "Link's ability to stay in shape is beyond your imagination. The rest of the past two weeks will not have any impact on him."

Some people are optimistic about Link, but naturally some are not optimistic about it. For example, Link's new "friend" Draymond Green.

On December 6 after the Grizzlies and Spurs' match ended, the Golden State Warriors fought a away game with the Bulls.

In this game, the Bulls' youngest MVP Derek Ross performed very poorly, playing 31 minutes, making only 2 of 11 shots, and only 9 points were scored in the whole game.

Ross's results naturally cannot make the Bulls win.

Forget it if the offense is not good, the Bulls are proud of their defense today is also a mess.

This summer, after introducing old Lakers player Paul Gasol, people thought the Bulls' indestructible defense would become more solid.

Gasol + Noah's inside defensive chain is indeed quite luxurious in this league today.

As a result, today Draymond Green shattered Thibodeau's basketball philosophy.

Green scored a game-high 31 points in the game today, plus 7 rebounds, 3 assists, 4 steals and 3 blocks!

Among them, Green made 7 of 13 shots from outside the three-point line, making Gasol and Noah very embarrassed.

Gasol and Noah were indeed defending the gate at low posts, but Green took a different approach and used small gains to tear the Bulls' defense to pieces.

Noah and Gasol were always pulled out by Green, and this undoubtedly made the Warriors' breakthrough much easier.

In the second half, Thibodeau thought Green could not kill the Bulls with three-pointers, so he signaled Gasol and Noah to stick to the basket and ignore Green.

As a result, his bull died.

Green's appearance completely broke the traditional basketball rules. People were surprised to find that an inside player could use it like this!

In this game, Green set a new record of single-game scoring and single-game three-point shooting record. In addition, four steals also tied his career single-game steal record for regular season.

The double victory of the game and personal data has made Green's fame soar.

There is no doubt that Green surpassed Curry, Thompson and Ross tonight and became the biggest stars.

After the game, Green, the biggest star, was naturally surrounded by the camera.

He also took the opportunity to argue with Link in front of the camera with his real name.

"People are eager to lead the Grizzlies out of their predicament, but I promise that Link's next game is not even as good as a player as me. I'm putting all the numbers here, waiting for you to get the humiliation, buddy."

Green turned around and left with a smile, ending the interview.
