Four Hundred and Sixty-Four: Rich Area
Link didn't get up until noon the next day, and as soon as he got up, he felt sore all over, especially his calf that cramped yesterday.
Yesterday's game was so exhausting! Starting from the second half of the fourth quarter, Link's physical strength was basically exhausted, and he bit down completely with perseverance and desire to win.
Although his body was sore, the first thing Link did when he woke up was to smile uncontrollably.
Link was extremely happy when he thought of last night's experience. That's the San Antonio Spurs, a San Antonio Spur that's approaching another peak.
Parker, Danny Green, Leonard, Duncan, Split, plus Dior and Manu Ginobili, the Spurs in this lineup are in the original history, but in the future they topped the Big Three and won the championship. 's team.
And yesterday, Link killed the "quasi-champion" with a drift back three points.
Link is happy not only because he completed the lore, but also because he finally defeated the Spurs this season. Facts have proved that the Grizzlies' regular season record this year is not inflated. They can indeed defeat the top teams in head-to-head games.
In 5 days and 4 battles, I can still fight with the Spurs to the end. Next time, if you play against the Spurs with plenty of energy, you may not have to fight until the last goal to decide the winner.
In short, yesterday's victory gave Link and the Grizzlies players great confidence. Even if they meet the Spurs in the playoffs, the Grizzlies will not be afraid.
The Spurs have been really strong this season, stronger than they have been in the past two years.
But unfortunately, the Grizzlies in Tennessee have already begun to move. Their power overshadowed the Spurs!
After waking up, Link did not get up immediately, but lay down for a while. It was not until one o'clock in the afternoon that he crawled out of the warm bed.
Today is the second day of the Grizzlies' 8-day, 6-game schedule to get a chance to rest, with no games. Considering that the Grizzlies players were too exhausted yesterday, Stevens arranged the training for the afternoon, and he must have just done some recovery training and called everyone back.
The Grizzlies' next game is against the Dallas Mavericks, a team that has only won a championship in three years. But to be honest, the Mavericks, who eliminated the Grizzlies at the beginning, are now completely nothing to be afraid of. So, even without training too hard, Stevens is confident he can win the game.
Link slowly made lunch for himself,
After talking on the phone with Rachel, I was ready to go out and start a new day's work.
Yesterday's brilliance is exciting, but dwelling only on past brilliance will only hold you back.
Link opened the door and glanced at his small garden, which the gardener had taken care of so exquisitely, and he was in a better mood.
However, this beautiful scene did not last long. Because in the next second, a bunch of reporters with microphones or recorders suddenly appeared out of nowhere!
Seeing the crowd of black people rushing towards his house, Link was startled at first!
He thought he had encountered a robber!
After seeing that it was a reporter who was visiting, Link let out a sigh of relief. So, ah, I usually watch less movies, so as not to be too imaginative.
But even if it was just a reporter, Link was very distressed. what's the situation? Why are so many reporters around my door?
There used to be occasional reporters staying in front of Link's house, but only occasionally, and there were only one or two reporters.
Today is a good day. There are so many reporters that they directly surround the door of the house.
Because the United States takes the concept of the private sphere very seriously, journalists are just outside the fence in the front garden of Link's house. But Link had to go out after all, and if he wanted to go out, he was destined to leave the fence. Now that the door is blocked, what should I do?
"Link, can you talk about yesterday's game? How did you finally do it?"
"What do you think the Grizzlies can achieve this year? The Western Conference Championship? Or the Championship?"
"Link, do you like strawberry ice cream or vanilla?"
"Do you have a girlfriend? Did you have a baby?"
As soon as Link got close to the fence, reporters chattered and asked questions. The first few questions are fairly normal, but in the back, all kinds of weird questions come out...
It took a lot of effort for Link to squeeze into the garage and drive away. Fortunately, the local reporters in Memphis didn't find fault, and when Link got into the car, they gave way.
Otherwise, Link estimated that he would not be able to go out today.
After a "hand-to-hand fight" with the reporters, the feeling of exhaustion spread all over the body instantly.
Too exaggerated, it was the first time that Link was blocked by reporters as soon as he went out. Of course, if you think about it carefully, you will be afraid. When did you say those reporters started squatting? There are dozens of people squatting outside your house at any time, and this kind of thing still makes people feel uncomfortable.
After arriving at the training hall, Link shared with his teammates what he had just experienced, and then the big brother Randolph patted his trouser legs and laughed.
"There aren't many stars here in Memphis. So it's easy for reporters to find your place. This incident only shows two problems. First, your kid is really popular now. Second, you should change too. house."
This guy Randolph is unreliable most of the time off the court. For example, when he encouraged Link to buy a car, his real purpose was to put popcorn in Link's car...
But this time, Link felt that Randolph had a point.
The house that Link lives in now was found by Jeff Austin when he first came to Memphis.
This two-story building was considered very luxurious to Link, but it was still an ordinary civilian residential area after all. Link's neighbors are all ordinary citizens, and there are no too luxurious facilities here.
Not famous before, there seems to be nothing wrong with living in such a place. But now the tree is big to attract the wind, and today's "encirclement and suppression" by reporters is just the beginning.
God knows, in the future, will there be fanatical female fans sneaking into their homes to lie on their beds...
In the past, because I could only sign a ten-day short contract, I was really poor, so I could only find a cheap house to live in first. Now that's the case, maybe it's time to change rooms.
"Well...but is there any high-end residential area in Memphis?" Link pouted, this is not New York and Los Angeles. There are no super-rich neighborhoods like Beverly Hills, nor Manhattan or Long Island.
Although Link already loves the city of Memphis very much, the reality must be recognized - Memphis is really poor, and the entire city, except for the central city, is indeed quite run down.
Is there a wealthy area in such a declining city?
"It depends on how high-end it is, like Beverly Hills... Memphis probably won't have it until the end of the world. But ordinary rich areas, I know a good place." Randolph sold off again, Link sighed, and he had to listen to Randolph's self-promotion tonight.
※※※
Driving in the middle of a forest, Link suspected that Randolph was going to take him out of the city.
Beside the road, Link also saw a sign with the appearance of a deer painted on it. Then in the woods on both sides of the road, Link really saw a few deer...
How does this feel like entering a safari park.
"Hey, you don't want me to live in the forest, right?" Link pouted, they had been driving for half an hour from the arena, and now Link didn't even see the shadow of the house.
"Boy, do you know what a rich area is? This forest is like a fence separating people of different identities. This is America, man."
"Fuck..." Link rolled his eyes at Randolph, and the guy began to pretend to speak those big truths in a deep sense.
Finally, after passing through the forest, Link suddenly found an open space ahead. What catches the eye is a green, broad green! It was as if a few villas were built on a beautiful prairie.
The environment here is very beautiful, like a park. Before in Memphis, Link had never seen such a pleasant environment.
Randolph's car was stopped by an uncle wearing a security uniform. The uncle wore white gloves and was polite, "Gentlemen, may I ask..."
After seeing Randolph and Link sitting in the car window, the uncle understood instantly, "Are you gentlemen here to see the room?"
"Yes, Link wants to buy a house here." Randolph tilted his head.
"Oh, that's an honor for the Ariel District! Hold on, I'll ask a realtor to show you around!"
"See? This kind of place is not allowed outsiders to enter casually. So in the future, even if reporters find out your address again, you don't have to worry about them harassing you." Randolph winked at Link proudly. It's as if he built this residential area.
"This looks really good." Link stuck his head out the window and looked around, the environment here was so different from where he lived now.
Clean roads, clean lawns, luxurious villas, residents living in harmony... Link even saw many squirrels and other small animals jumping on the lawn, as if entering the world of fairy tales.
"There is also a huge lake here, the size of 120 football fields! This residential area is built around the lake. If I were you, I would buy a house by the lake and a boat in the backyard. In this way, you can go to the lake to go fishing at any time. I wanted to buy a house here before, so I know a little bit about it. I heard that the houses here used to sell for more than 1 million. But after the 2008 financial crisis, some people could not pay for it. If you get up and sell the house, or be forcibly taken back by the bank and then auctioned off, the house price will drop by about 30%. Now. It is estimated that 600,000 to 700,000 can be won. "
While Randolph and Link were talking, a young girl in a suit knocked on the car window. She should be the real estate manager here.
"Come on, gentlemen. Welcome to Ariel, welcome to the dream home."
Link smiled happily. After working so hard on the court, it was time to console himself off the court.
