Six Hundred and Eighty-Three: The Evaluation Report Is Just Short of It
Griffin clashes with Draymond Green and is ejected.
Howard scored 15 points and 20 rebounds, Harden also contributed 28 points, the Rockets beat the Spurs.
Durant's 29+7+6 data shattered Carmelo Anthony's dream.
This is the Christmas War, and in the United States, it is a repertoire equivalent to the "Spring Festival Gala". Here are the hottest contests and the most hype-worthy topics. Every Christmas Eve, the NBA is not destined to be peaceful.
But this year, none of those events have received much attention. I don't know, I must have thought that the NBA only arranged one Christmas game this year. Because the day after the Christmas war, almost the whole world is discussing the Grizzlies and the Heat, Link and the Big Three. Others and other games were almost ignored.
The other games of the Christmas War are overshadowed by this topic.
"Birdman" Anderson, the fifth player in history to score a triple-double in the Christmas game, pull-up layup while blocking the Big Three, and end the game at the last minute...
On the second day, these were still the topics that fans talked about. Compared to Durant's one-sided slaughter of Anthony, compared to the boring conflict between Griffin and Green, compared to the rockets and the Spurs.
The game between the Grizzlies and the Heat is the real essence of the Christmas battle!
The photo of Link grabbing the ball behind the backboard with one hand under the siege of the Big Three has become the front page of major sports media websites.
During the Christmas fight, Link was turned into a grizzly night.
"Yesterday's game was amazing, I bet no game has been as good as yesterday since the concept of Christmas fights in the 1940s!" Pella was excited in his office the next day endlessly.
Link shook his head as he watched Pera jumping up and down. The owner of the Grizzlies may be the most shaky-looking owner in the league.
There are indeed many classic games in the history of the Christmas War, such as Jordan's Jedi counterattack on the Knicks in 1992. In 2001, the Lakers overcame the 76ers led by Iverson while trailing by 12 points in the final quarter. The 2003 Yao Shark War...
Link dared not say that the game he played yesterday was the most classic, but it was definitely one of the most classic.
Be able to become the creator of classic battles,
Link was also very happy. Of course, the happiest thing is that he ended up being the winner.
The Heat were one of the creators of the classic game yesterday, but they certainly couldn't be happier.
"By the way, Link, why are you looking for me?" Pera was excited to herself for a long time after seeing Link, and didn't ask why Link was here.
"That, the dunk contest thing..."
The Christmas war is over, which means that 2013 is coming to an end. According to Link's promise to Newell, he would give him an answer by mid-January.
Are you going to participate in the dunk contest? Link must have an answer.
Link himself does not contradict, is he afraid of losing? It didn't exist. Link was afraid of many things, but he was the only one who was not afraid of losing.
Failure is not scary, but fear of failure is scary.
Link hasn't decided yet because he knows it's not just about personal interests. Team owners, head coaches and managers, Link had to ask for their advice.
Professional players can't do anything when their brains are hot. Link's body is not only involved in himself.
Of course, Link is in charge of this matter. As long as he insists on participating, no one can do anything to him.
But don't be too selfish.
"Oh, about the slam dunk contest, I have nothing against it. Like Jogel said, as long as the team doctor assesses your health, you can go and play if you want."
Pera had discussed this matter with head coach Dave Jogel before, and Jogel naturally had no objection.
Although the slam dunk contest is in danger of injury, and Link's injury means that the Grizzlies will change dramatically. This is also one of the reasons why many superstars are reluctant to participate in the dunk contest.
But Link himself wanted to participate, and Jogel respected Link's choice. His plan was that after the team doctor's physical assessment report came out, if Link had no risk, he would participate if he wanted to.
Jorge, Pera and manager Austin are all of this opinion.
The team doctors of NBA teams are not just as simple as treating players when they are injured. On a daily basis, they also evaluate a player's physical condition periodically and assess their risk of injury.
This is the reason why many players are obviously not injured, but are protected from time to time by their coaches.
There are still a few days before Link's latest physical assessment report is released, and in a few days, Link will be able to give the alliance a reply.
"But are you really going to the dunk contest? Aren't you worried?"
"What do I have to worry about?" Link spread his hands, Pera wouldn't think she was afraid of losing to others.
"I mean, aren't you afraid that after this slam dunk contest, other people are afraid to participate? Because of your dunk, everyone else will definitely see shame."
Pera smiled, and now he has no doubts about Link's ability to create miracles.
Even in the slam dunk contest where "birds and beasts" are rampant.
※※※
The heat of the Christmas war is gradually dissipating, but the Christmas atmosphere is still strong.
Rachel has been too busy this year, and after becoming a show host, her workload is greater than in previous years. So Rachel didn't stay with Link for long this Christmas. The two only "interviewed" for a few hours after the game, and they each started a new journey the next day.
For Rachel, this hasty reunion certainly wasn't enough. So Rachel has been absent-minded since returning from Memphis.
She sat in the office, biting the pen. Without realizing it, Grant Hill had walked into her office after knocking on the door.
"What's the matter, Rachel? You're so lost."
"Ah!? No, just too tired, hahaha. Grant, when did you come in?" Rachel was startled when she came back to her senses.
"Hey, take more rest when you're tired. Young people, don't stay up late. By the way, the guests of the next show have been confirmed, and I'll let you know."
"Who's going to be on our show this time?" Rachel showed great interest. She and Hill's show would always invite some basketball celebrities for interviews from time to time.
Last time, she chatted with Scott Pippen. Once again, the show team even found Durant!
It is worth mentioning that Durant also called Rachel for dinner after the show.
But Rachel refused, she had no interest in being alone with men other than Link. What's more, he is a single man.
"The guest on the next episode is not the players, but the famous Bill Simmons. He has made a name for himself this season because of his feud with Link, and our next episode will definitely be very interesting. After all, Bill is a An open mouthed person."
"It's him... He's so annoying." Rachel frowned, who would like a guy who was black with his own boyfriend?
"I see that you like Link very much, Rachel. Otherwise, let's try to get Link to do a show?" Hill smiled, only Link's fans would be so resistant to Simmons.
Rachel smiled wryly, what's the use of Link joining the show? What he wanted was to be alone with Link.
Two days later, on Rachel and Hill's latest episode, Bill Simmons faced the camera and made another rant.
Now in the game, Simmons has nothing to hide. Link's recent performance is so good that Simmons will only slap himself in the face if he continues to be blind.
So one thing Simmons has been emphasizing on the show is, "He is just like LeBron, he just talks about it. Link will never dare to participate in the slam dunk contest. Again, he must dare to participate and win. Champion, I fucking wear women's clothes."
This thing is neither in the realm of ordinary games, and it is almost impossible to predict mistakes. So Simmons sees this as his own lifesaver.
As long as the league announces the roster for the All-Star Slam Dunk Contest, and there is no Link on the list, Simmons will be able to pull back a win.
Link is watching this show at home. He originally watched it for Rachel, but he didn't expect today's guests to make him very unappetizing.
But it doesn't matter, according to the team doctor, Link's physical assessment report will be released tomorrow.
Link couldn't wait to surprise that bastard Simmons again.
