One Hundred and Seventy Eight: 1st Order
On the first game day of the NBA playoffs, the fierce battle feasted the eyes of fans.
The No. 1 Bulls in the East easily defeated the Pacers 104-99. Rose had 39 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists in the game. This guy showed a strong strength that does not match his age.
The Mavericks defeated George Karl's Denver Nuggets 89 to 81. Nowitzki and Kidd scored 52 points in this game, completely suppressing the starless Nuggets. The Nuggets must be very depressed. If it weren't for the Grizzlies, they should not have encountered such a strong opponent...
The Heat beat the Philadelphia 76ers 97-89, and the Big Three combined for 73 points, showing the Heat's horror in the playoffs.
The three games have different styles and different reasons for winning. But one thing is that these three games are all teams with higher rankings in the regular season, and there is no suspense to tactical teams with lower rankings.
Only the Memphis Grizzlies, as the fifth in the West, overcame the Thunder, which was the fourth in the West!
They are the only team with the following fouls in the current playoffs!
"The Grizzlies finally dreamed of winning their first playoff game in franchise history yesterday, and it's especially difficult to do that on the road."
"Link, not only scored 20 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists in the first game of the series, but Zach Randolph scored a career-high 34 points in the playoffs. If there are still Anyone who thinks the Grizzlies don't have the strength to compete with the Thunder must be a fool."
"I know, the Thunder have been in the spotlight this season. They've got Durant who's a big scorer, they've got Westbrook who's always in the top 10, and they've got a young, strong sixth man, James Harden. But here It's a basketball court, and fame is not everything. I have to say that the Thunder are indeed much more famous than the Grizzlies this season. But in the NBA, it's always based on strength!"
"I don't know how many people were surprised by the result of yesterday's game. A team with some of the best young men in the league lost to the Memphis Grizzlies, who were considered to be bad. During the regular season, the Grizzlies In fact, they have already shown good strength. I said that the Grizzlies' ranking and their strength do not match. Because it was almost after Rudy Gay was injured that the Grizzlies really established their strength. Core lineup. If the Grizzlies started the season like that, they might be better than fifth in the West!"
"If NBA2K games is going to have a classic team, I suggest adding the Memphis Grizzlies this season. They're a special team, they may not be the top team in the league, but any team that meets the Grizzlies has to be prepared. tortured."
On the first day of the series, four games were played. But the game between the Grizzlies and the Thunder attracted the most attention and discussion. Even Miami's three giants have not overshadowed the Grizzlies' fiery.
After all, it is reasonable for the Heat to win the 76ers. The three giants combined to score 73 points, and the fans have long been used to it.
But the Grizzlies beat the Thunder, Link scored 20 points in his playoff debut, and Randolph set a new career playoff scoring record, all of which are very special to fans.
A team that is fifth in the Western Conference and has never received a lot of attention has become the darling of the league overnight, and even Link feels a little uncomfortable.
Finally, the Grizzlies became a protagonist. They became the subject of discussion, the center of television news coverage.
This is the playoffs, there's a spotlight here, it's up to you to catch it.
The day after the game, Link received many blessings from friends. But among them, Jeff Austin was the most positive. This guy went directly to Memphis to meet with Link. The reason is very simple, he has to arrange Link's itinerary this summer in advance.
"20 points in the playoffs, you always surprise people, Link. Now that you're one of the most famous players in the league, the world knows a magical Chinese undrafted rising in Memphis.
"
"Okay, Mr. Austin, don't compliment me first. You can arrange for me this summer's itinerary. I don't have any special requirements except to guarantee training time." Link waved his hand, of course he knew NBA stars A vacation isn't a never-ending splurge.
In fact, what a player does while on vacation is one of the reasons that separates him from everyone else. The offseason is the best time to polish your skills. If the holidays are all used for fun, the final outcome is sure to be eliminated.
"Don't worry, I won't delay your training time too much. In fact, I will recommend a few trainers to you. You have to improve your abilities in certain areas in a targeted manner this summer."
"For example, gaining weight?" Link rubbed his little hands expectantly, he was fed up with the feeling of being shriveled in the confrontation.
"Well, yes, you are a little too thin. But don't gain too much, because that will affect your flexibility. Summer training is not so simple, I can also arrange a few games for you , the kind of innings with all the stars. I can arrange some training camps for you to help you stay in shape. Anyway, in the offseason, the practice thing is as important as the business."
"Very good, I hope to improve myself more in the offseason. By the way, Jeff, this summer's signing..." Link is very clear that his contract with the Grizzlies will arrive in just over a month Expired, when he will become a free agent.
In the first year of entering the NBA, he will test the waters of the free agency market, which makes Link a little excited and a little nervous.
When you see the offers from those teams, you know how much you have. NBA teams are not charities, and while they spend money like water, most teams don't spend money for nothing.
Although the NBA has no shortage of all kinds of junk contracts, these junk contracts are usually signed in special contexts.
Therefore, a player's test of the free agency market is also a test of himself. This is the best way for a player to test his own value.
"What? Do you have any thoughts on signing this summer? I haven't contacted any team yet, because I want to wait until the playoffs are over to talk. If you contact other teams now, it will affect our relationship with The relationship with the Grizzlies. I believe that we will receive a lot of offers from teams this summer, and the price will not be too low. Last season, Wesley Matthews, who was also an undrafted, signed a contract with the Blazers. On a five-year, $34 million deal, he made more than the No. 1 pick. After all, Wall's rookie deal is only four years, $24 million."
"And you, your price will be higher than Wesley Matthews, I can guarantee that. At that time, you will no longer be compared with rookies, but those first-tier stars." Austin said, pleased He smiled, he really didn't miss it.
"Well...that sounds tempting. But that's not what I'm trying to say, I'm trying to tell you that the Memphis Grizzlies are our number one signing this summer. Any other team, in that order. After the Grizzlies, okay?"
Jeff Austin looked at Link and was a little stunned. He thought that Link wanted to talk to him about the price, but he didn't expect it to be such a request.
"This is more like my home, and I want to continue to play in Memphis. I want to work with other people to create even greater glory. The team's first win in the playoffs is just the beginning, and I believe the Grizzlies will climb higher and higher in the future. And I, really want to create this with you guys. People often say the NBA is just business. But in my opinion, the league is more than business. So make the Grizzlies your number one signing this summer. And I believe , the Grizzlies can't be too low, can they?"
Link didn't want to leave the Grizzlies, that was his only request. If it is said that choosing Memphis at the beginning was just out of desperation, just to survive. So now, Link really wants to make a career here.
We've been through so much together this season, and this experience has made Link stop thinking of Memphis as just a place to make money.
Just like Randolph, they both fell in love with a city that people despised and a team that was always overlooked.
"I see, Link. Don't worry, I'll do what you want." Jeff Austin smiled. Link can always create surprises, even off the court.
It seems that this summer, many teams have to go home disappointed.
