One Thousand Two Hundred and Twelve: No Peace for Even a Moment

The quarrel between Link and Sam Smith has become another hot topic among fans after the free agent market gradually faded away.

Speaking of which, this summer is much more lively than ever.

After the finals, the draft and the first awards ceremony attended by Link kept the NBA still very popular.

After that, the free agent market opened and the league underwent drastic changes. Every day, breaking news leaks out.

The large-scale TV series "Where Are We Going Kawaii" has always touched the hearts of every fan.

Now, finally, all the big-name players have their own homes, and the popularity of basketball will dissipate.

As a result, Link and Sam Smith were at odds again.

Only this time, not all fans are on Sam Smith's side.

The popularity that Link has accumulated over the years is not so fragile.

But just like Jordan back then, fans of other teams that have the potential to compete for the championship are eager for their teams to knock Link off the altar.

Coincidentally, there are really not many teams competing for the championship next season.

Therefore, the fans who support Link and those who wait to see Link's jokes are about half and half.

The half who don't support are not supporters of Sam Smith, they just want their team to win the championship.

Therefore, there has been an extremely polarized discussion on the Internet about whether Link can win four consecutive championships.

"Of course. No one thought that Link could establish a second dynasty at the beginning. What happened? Did you forget who the championship was last season so quickly?"

"Link will definitely do it. Don't ask me why, just because he is Link."

"The Grizzlies' lineup isn't that bad. Rose averaged nearly 20 points per game last season. Conley and Gasol are former All-Stars. Jokic has also become the best center in the league. One, do you think this lineup is bad?"

Of course, there are also many people who are yin and yang.

"The Grizzlies' lineup is indeed not bad, but it is still a bit far from championship level. Take the Clippers as an example. They have two MVP candidates at the same time."

"You have all forgotten,

Link is almost 32 years old, and God knows what his status will be like next season. Link has not suffered any major injuries in his career over the years, but this is not necessarily the case for Link who is already in his 30s. "

"Forget about Conley and Gasol. They have become representatives of high salary and low ability, and they can't even claim to be All-Stars."

"I admit that Link is very strong, but winning four consecutive championships is too overestimating his abilities."

Such a topic is enough to keep fans who have no games to watch arguing for several days.

However, as the person involved, Link had no news at all after he finished cursing.

After all, Link didn't want to curse in front of his daughter at home.

"Really, why are you so angry? You're just a reporter." Rachel frowned as she looked at the huge commotion Link caused on the Internet.

Over the years, Link has gotten used to being sprayed and doesn't care anymore.

But Rachel was different.

She was still a little worried when she saw those vicious comments.

"It's nothing, it's just that I haven't cursed anyone for a long time. This time I cursed very well." Link scratched his head.

After all, this time next year, even if he wants to experience the feeling of squirting with a famous reporter, he won't be able to experience it...

The Grizzlies' lineup for next season has been basically finalized, but Link is not really ready to announce in front of the media that he will retire after playing next season.

However, as time continues to pass, Link will have to face it whether he is ready or not.

Time passes day by day, and Link feels it goes very fast during the offseason in recent years. Because being able to be with his family is the happiest thing for Link.

Link's training camp also started on time. When Link saw Jokic's size, he was almost pissed to death.

This kid Jokic has been drinking a lot of bottles of Coke in a day. Not long after the season ended, he suddenly became fat like a ball!

Wearing the jersey can stretch out your belly. In this way, I don’t know how to play in the World Cup.

But overall, everyone's condition is pretty good.

It can be seen that everyone has the goal of four consecutive championships on their shoulders.

However, this summer, Cousins ​​was unable to participate due to injury, which made Link worried.

Cousins' injury may be more serious than people think.

Whether he can return healthy next season is still a question mark.

From this point of view, the Grizzlies did not sign Cousins ​​and took Howard instead. Maybe it was a mistake.

This year's Link training camp did not last long because the 2019 Basketball World Cup will begin soon. And many of the people around Link have to compete in the World Cup.

Once again, people's attention to basketball has been pushed to the top.

This summer, the popularity of basketball has hardly dropped.

The scolding war between Link and Sam Smith had just begun to cool down, but the Basketball World Cup has heated up the heat again.

Link was initially looking forward to China's performance as the host nation in the World Cup, but the boys on the Chinese team were really unsatisfactory.

Zhou Qi's sideline ball error was even ridiculed by fans. Link estimates that Zhou Qi will not be able to escape the abuse from the fans for at least the next one or two years.

Although the Chinese team was eliminated early, Link still took his family to China again.

But this time I went not to watch the Basketball World Cup, but to watch the UFC Shenzhen game.

Facts have proved that his decision was correct. The Chinese men's basketball team's downturn in the World Cup has not been transmitted to the fighting octagonal cage.

The famous Chinese female mixed martial arts boxer Zhang Weili unexpectedly knocked out the fierce defending champion Andrade in the Shenzhen competition, becoming the first Chinese, no, the first Asian champion in UFC history!

Watching this game made Link's blood boil, and it also inspired him.

Yes, the first UFC Chinese champion. In the past, who would have thought that the Chinese could occupy a place in this sport.

No one thinks that yellow people can adapt to this cruel sport of mixed martial arts.

But she just did it.

The same goes for winning four consecutive championships. Link doesn’t need others to think whether it’s possible or not, he can just do it himself!

After the game, Link also had the opportunity to go to the locker room and take a photo with Zhang Weili.

The Chinese-American basketball superstar took a photo with China's first UFC champion, which diverted most Chinese sports fans' attention away from the men's basketball team's defeat.

In the next year, they will pay more attention to Zhang Weili's first defense of the title and Link's miracle of four consecutive championships than the defeat of the Chinese men's basketball team!

After returning to Memphis from Shenzhen, Link had an unexpected gain, that is, he found that Lin Ling seemed to be very interested in fighting.

After watching Zhang Weili's game, the little girl was so excited that she performed those fighting moves every day. She had no reaction when she saw a basketball game on TV, but she became excited when she saw a mixed martial arts game.

Rachel and Link were both a little speechless. Her parents were obviously football fans, so why did her skill tree become a little crooked when it came to her?

Link doesn't dislike his daughter's interest. She is indeed his daughter, she is so different...

When the Basketball World Cup ends, the NBA pre-season training camp will soon begin.

This means that the 19-20 season is approaching.

Link still can't believe it until now. Next season will actually be the tenth season of his career!

Link's life so far has only lasted three decades, which means that Link has spent one-third of his life on the NBA court.

In this tenth year, Link will face the biggest challenge of his career.

It really means something.

On September 20, the Grizzlies’ pre-season training camp will begin.

But before that, the Grizzlies officially notified many media and asked them to come to a new press conference.

The reporters didn't pay much attention to it. Press conferences in pre-season training camps usually just introduce the newly joined players and the current situation of the team.

They never imagined that Grizzly Bear and Link were holding back a big news.

There is really no peace in the basketball world this summer.
