One Thousand and Eighty-Seven: I Want MVP Too (5/5)

On December 28, Westbrook scored 29 points, 17 rebounds and 11 assists, helping the team defeat the already lonely Miami Heat by 12 points.

In this game, the "Turtles" once again posted a very exaggerated triple-double. Especially the number of 17 rebounds, it can be said that it exists in response to those who accuse him of stealing rebounds from his teammates.

In today's game, facing the Heat with Whiteside in charge, the Thunder grabbed a total of 46 rebounds, while the Heat only had 32.

In the entire game, the Thunder grabbed 14 more rebounds than their opponent!

And today, "Aquaman" Adams also scored 9 rebounds. Although the number of rebounds did not reach double figures, 9 rebounds is quite a lot to be honest.

Under such circumstances, Westbrook still grabbed 17 rebounds strongly, which undoubtedly proved that he did not rely on "brushing" to get data.

Westbrook responded to everyone's insults and doubts with his actual actions!

After the game, reporters asked a question that excited everyone.

"Congratulations, Russell, this is another great victory. In the next game, you will lead the team to face the Memphis Grizzlies for the first time this season. Facing such a powerful opponent, do you think the Thunder can maintain their winning streak? ?”

That's right, two days later, on December 30, the Grizzlies and Thunder will face off for the first time this season.

Due to Westbrook's recent controversy, everyone is looking forward to this game.

Many fans are clamoring for Link to let Westbrook know what a real MVP is, and let him know that he can become the greatest player without adding statistics.

Therefore, the reporter also focused on the key points, which was equivalent to asking a very pointed question.

"I just won this game and I just want to enjoy the victory now. But there is no doubt that I will not miss any opportunity to win."

It can be seen that Westbrook does not want to challenge Link. After all, Link hasn't found fault with Westbrook these days.

In line with the principle of "mutual non-aggression", Link and Westbrook's relationship has been relatively relaxed so far.

Of course, the biggest reason why Westbrook didn't challenge Link was because he knew that guy was really not easy to mess with!

But obviously,

Such an answer cannot satisfy the appetite of fans.

The media and fans are not going to just acknowledge Westbrook's achievements.

After the game, Bill Simmons, who always hates players brushing up statistics, finally couldn't sit still.

He published an article in his column specifically discussing Westbrook, who averaged a triple-double this season.

This article naturally continues to show his profound skills of venomous tongue, but this time, the target of his venomous tongue has changed from Link back then to the "Turtle".

"Grabbed 17 rebounds to prove that he didn't add data? You're laughing so hard! Adams did grab 9 rebounds in this game, but 6 of them were offensive rebounds! And Westbrook's 17 rebounds, all It’s a backcourt rebound! Now, do you see something!?”

At the beginning of the article, Bill Simmons directly refuted the "evidence" that Westbrook did not brush the data.

The data of this game cannot explain anything at all.

17 rebounds, all backcourt rebounds. As a center who can grab 6 offensive rebounds, Adams actually only recorded 3 backcourt rebounds.

If someone says that this data is okay, that would be a damned thing.

"Stop what you are doing, Russell. Averaging a triple-double is not that great, winning is great. We all know you want to prove your greatness after Durant leaves, but your efforts are in the wrong place!"

"I think it's stupid to put Westbrook at the top of the MVP rankings. He's not even a good leader. Look at how much Oladipo and the rest of the Thunder are struggling. You know what role Russell played, and you know why Kevin Durant was eager to escape Oklahoma."

"If Russell Westbrook really wins the MVP because he averages a triple-double per game, I swear, he will definitely become the most popular MVP in NBA history! Yes, better than Dirk in 2007 Return the water!”

"In addition, I very much agree with the view that 'Link will let Russell know what a real MVP is.' In the game on the 30th, Link will press Russell to the ground and rub him hard. The real strong man is disdainful Yu went to brush the data."

Bill Simmons was as unrestrained as ever and started spraying Westbrook.

How could Westbrook, who has always had a bad temper, endure this? He immediately started a trash-talking war with Bill Simmons on social media.

Under this topic, both parties will naturally mention Link intentionally or unintentionally.

On December 29, the day before the game started, Westbrook simply gave Bill Simmons an ultimatum during an interview during media opening hours.

"Shut your mouth, you are just a writer. If Link really has the ability to win the MVP, he will prove it to everyone. In this case, keep your eyes open tomorrow! Let's see who Link is. Stop me, or I'll step on him."

"Turtle" As soon as he said these words, Link began to feel a little uncomfortable.

If you and Simmons quarrel, just quarrel. What do you mean by stepping on me? I provoked you...

Besides, Link was also very disgusted with data brushing. Although you need to be strong to get data, players like Dion Waiters who can't get data even if you give him the right to take action are everywhere in the league.

But it’s really inappropriate to just brush it after brushing it, and to brush it off while brushing it off.

And from the bottom of his heart, Link is actually very eager to win this year's MVP.

So far in his career, Link has "only" won two regular season MVPs.

Last season, because the team's record was not that good, the MVP was lost to Curry, who led the team to a record of 73 wins. The dream of three consecutive MVPs was also ended.

So this year, in addition to the championship, Link also really wants to get back the personal honor of MVP.

After finally getting rid of Harden and James, and now Westbrook comes out to compete with him for the MVP, Link is also very annoyed.

In this case, let's educate the "Turtle" a little bit tomorrow.

But until now, Link has not made any remarks related to Westbrook, and he is still enduring.

On the Internet, the war of words between Westbrook and Bill Simmons has intensified, and Westbrook has mentioned Link more and more often.

"He is a thing of the past and I will prove it."

"No matter what, I am number one in the MVP rankings. If Link is really capable, why isn't he number one?"

“I’m looking forward to playing against him, and I’m looking forward to beating an opponent that Kevin can’t beat!”

At the same time, Thunder fans began to join in the fun, and they all said that the Thunder would win a big victory at FedEx Arena.

The omnipotent Westbrook will take over Link's position as the overlord of the league.

From Westbrook to Thunder fans, there is a sense of pushing their noses in the eyes.

Link didn't want to join the scolding war, and they were getting complacent about it.

Therefore, Link had no choice but to respond simply on his social media.

There were no curse words in this sentence, or even any questioning of Westbrook, but it brought the entire situation to a climax.

"There's no way someone is going to get a triple-double in tomorrow's game. That's right, I said that."

When Link said this, it was equivalent to lighting the fuse directly.

He and Westbrook, these two explosive barrels, will definitely explode into pieces as long as they come next to each other!

"Does it really matter?" Rachel looked at Link's social media updates and shrugged, "Westbrook will be very angry."

"Don't worry. Although it hurts to say this, Russell...he is really not a difficult guy to deal with."

Link smiled confidently at his wife, "We'd better research what kind of milk powder we can give our children to drink in the future."
