"We hate Link, but we love Link."

Link couldn't help laughing as he looked at Bill Simmons's dynamic.

It seems that from now on, I will lose a powerful opponent.

Speaking of which, Link is really reluctant to let it go.

Bill Simmons and Link have been fighting each other for a while, so it has become a great pleasure in Link's life to argue with Simmons.

But this update from Bill Simmons means that everything is over.

Link officially conquered this famous basketball writer and conquered this "poisonous" super basketball fan.

From now on, no one will quarrel with him again, and no one will bet with Link again. Thinking of this, Link was really reluctant to let him go.

Is this the legendary feeling that has caused darkness?

Simmons has admitted Link's greatness, which means he has cleared all obstacles in front of him. Now, he is only one championship away from being able to officially reach the altar!

Dynasty, three consecutive championships...

There are many superstars in NBA history, but it is rare to have a superstar who can establish a three-game winning dynasty in one hand.

Since Jordan, only the Lakers, who have "ok combination", have done this.

03 Among so many great players in the Golden Generation, no one can get close to this achievement.

Not to mention, it was a undrafted draft and a small city team to achieve such an achievement.

When Link thought of this, he was extremely excited.

There is actually nothing to be happy about following the footsteps of your predecessors. No matter how well you do, you are just living in the shadow of your predecessors.

But it is great to surpass the limits of our predecessors.

How wonderful it is to create an era of oneself and a grizzly bear...

Link didn't think about it anymore, he turned off the screen of his phone and closed his eyes.

In the playoffs, Link was already itchy.

April 15, the last round of the NBA regular season in the 14-15 season.

Today, the Grizzlies, who have firmly ranked first in the West, welcomed their last opponent, Pacers at home.

In this game, Joe Geer deliberately reduced the starting players' playing time. By the way, Conley and Old Carter returned early and looked for the game state before the playoffs began.

Although the Grizzlies did not give their all to fight in this game, the Pacers still lost miserably.

This year, due to Paul George's injury, the Pacers are no longer the Pacers who were able to fight to the tiebreak with the Heat.

This season, the Pacers are not even within the playoffs.

Even the East, which is not competitive, cannot make the playoffs, which is enough to show how bad the Pacers' record this year.

Although Paul George returned in the middle of the season, he has been not very healthy and has been playing and stopping.

In this state, there is naturally no way for George to exert his strength.

In today's game, the Pacers simply arranged for George to make a quit. This also means that Indiana fans want to see a George who is fully fired, and they have to wait until next season.

George did not play, and the Pacers had lost hope for the playoffs. Therefore, they had no need to resist at all.

The Grizzlies easily won the Pacers 95-83 at home, with Gasol scoring a large double-double with 33 points and 13 rebounds. Conley, who returned from injury, also scored 16 points and 8 assists.

Overall, the Grizzlies' form before the playoffs is very reassuring.

Link only played 20 minutes today and only scored 13 points. But throughout the game, he was the player who received the most close-up shots and the commentators talked about the most.

"There is no doubt that the Western Conference Best of the Month in April must belong to Link. Can you imagine that a player who plays in the Western Conference can win all the best of the month awards this season! God, this kind of thing has never happened before!"

The game is over, but Hubby Brown and Mike Brin on the commentary stage are still chattering.

"Link has done a lot of things that no one has done before, and it's not bad. Six months in a single season... This may be one of the hardest records in NBA history."

"Yes, if Link can achieve three consecutive championships this season, that's even more... Hey, Mike, do you think Link can establish a dynasty?" Hubby Brown said, looking at the two championship pennants hanging from the dome of the Federal Express Arena.

Just a few years ago, it was bare and nothing, not even a banner for a division champion.

But now, there is a lot of harvest.

Hubby Brown could not imagine how beautiful the scene would be when the championship banner was hung there on three consecutive sides.

In the Memphis Dynasty, who could have thought of this word before?

"To be honest, I'm not sure if Link can establish a dynasty this season. But what we can expect is that the Grizzlies will contribute more exciting games to us in the next series."

With the final round of the regular season coming to an end, the final ranking of the West has finally been confirmed.

This year, after losing Durant, Russell Westbrook never got his wish and failed to fulfill his promise.

The Oklahoma City Thunder, one of the Grizzlies' biggest opponents in the West, ranked ninth in the Western Conference with a record of 45 wins and 37 losses this year, missing the playoffs, let alone the finals.

The New Orleans Pelicans, who replaced the Thunder and entered the top eight, were the same record as 45 wins and 37 losses.

Anthony Davis, who began to make his mark in the league, also became the Grizzlies' first round opponent this year.

The Mavericks, with 50 wins and 32 losses, ranked seventh. The Spurs, who played in the Western Conference Finals last season, ranked sixth in the Western Conference with only 55 wins and 27 losses this year.

The Trail Blazers and the Clippers ranked fifth and fourth respectively, which means they will be the second round of the Grizzlies.

The Rockets have reached the third place in the West this year, which is worthy of recognition.

The Golden State Warriors, who also won the game today and won 67 wins and 15 losses, were only second in the West!

The Warriors led the third-place Rockets with a total of 11 wins. They are definitely the biggest dark horse this year and the only strong team in the West.

However, they are not proud of their 67 wins.

On the contrary, the better their record is, the more frustrating they are at this time. Because all their achievements have become the foil of the Grizzlies.

After winning the game against the Pacers, the Grizzlies' record this season was frozen at 69 wins and 13 losses.

One very exaggerated thing is that even though 69 wins are already amazing, this is the worst record that the Grizzlies have ever achieved in the regular season in the past three years...

It is a miracle that the Grizzlies can still win 69 victories when they are full of wounded soldiers.

In the future, when people mention the Warriors' 67 wins, they will not say how great the Warriors are.

When people recall the regular season in the 14-15 season, the first thing they remember is, "The Warriors only ranked second in the West after winning 67 wins. Think about how strong the Grizzlies are!"

So, the Warriors' efforts are all about making dowry for the Grizzlies.

After the regular season, the Warriors players were very frustrated. When they ended up in this situation, they couldn't blame others and could only hate themselves for not being able to solve the Grizzlies three days ago.

The ending of the regular season is indeed quite tragic for the Warriors. But this is not the end of the world. Fortunately, they still have a chance to defeat the Grizzlies in the playoffs!

The day after the regular season, Steve Cole began to study the Warriors' own game video.

In the Western Conference Finals last season, Cole witnessed with his own eyes how the Grizzlies pressed the Spurs to the ground and rubbed against the unconventional lineup of one, one, four, and four.

At that time, he had a bold idea. And because of this, he chose to coach the Warriors.

During this year's regular season, the Grizzlies even used five small lineups with Link as the center and eventually won the game.

This proved to Cole that his ideas work.

This wise coach planned the plan for a whole year and is finally about to start formal implementation.

In this playoffs, if the Warriors and the Grizzlies really meet in the Western Conference Finals, then he will give the Grizzlies a brand new meeting gift.

By the way, what did Link call?
