Seven Hundred and Thirty: Step Out of Your Own Way

"Did Link think breaking the 72-win record was as easy as beating the Thunder? He's a megalomaniac."

"I have no doubts about the Grizzlies' ability, but I have no doubts about the Grizzlies' physical reserves. If they do their best in the regular season, what are they going to do in the Western Conference finals?"

"If I were Link, I wouldn't say it so deadly. The NBA is not his playground, and now that he says that, everyone wants to stop him."

After Link's participation in the show, it really caused a heated discussion among the media and fans.

People often show confusion and confusion about things beyond their abilities and knowledge, and this confusion and confusion can eventually turn into hostility.

There is no doubt that winning at least 20 of the remaining 25 games in the regular season is beyond the ability and perception of most people.

Therefore, people began to question whether Link was too arrogant. Although the Grizzlies have now played 57 games and only lost 5 games, it is indeed not easy to win at least 20 games in 25 games.

At the end of the regular season, each team will start a sprint. Throughout history, teams that once had a regular-season record close to 70 also lost more after the All-Star break.

During this time period, the strong teams hope to preserve their vitality into the playoffs. And those teams that are eager to climb up will do whatever it takes to increase their wins.

In a situation like this, it will be easier than ever for the weak to prevail over the strong.

Of course, there are still many people who support Link, their All-Star vote king, their slam dunk contest saver.

But Link, as a very controversial superstar, has always hated him as many people love him. Therefore, the number of people waiting to see Link's jokes increased instantly.

Among them, even Bill Simmons, who has just recovered from the women's clothing incident.

"I know, you guys are still laughing at my black dress look at the All-Star Slam Dunk Contest. But let's go, my wife and I are used to that damn look anyway. It's been a long time since I said anything about Link's words. I've commented, but I have to say this time, I can't think of any team that can only lose ten games in a season! Even if you put MJ back in 1996, it's hard for him to recreate the 72-win miracle for you. Go Look, Link won't succeed, he is as conceited as Wilt Chamberlain from decades ago! Don't you believe me? Well, first of all Link will face a problem - how to deal with teammate pressure Big question!"

Although Bill Simmons has a very nasty mouth, he is indeed a writer who understands basketball and the NBA.

He said in the article that Link openly expressed his desire to win 72 wins and the championship on the show, which would invisibly put a lot of pressure on his teammates.

Link may be able to handle that pressure, but not everyone is Link on the Grizzlies. If Link's teammates are overwhelmed, Link's plan will be in vain. After all, Link couldn't have won 72 by himself.

Link read Bill Simmons' article carefully, and even took notes on it. Then, he put down the newspaper and turned to look at "Big Black Bear" Randolph.

"Zach, are you stressed?"

"Don't make me laugh, Link." Randolph, who was changing clothes, waved his hand indifferently.

He's survived the times that nearly ruined his life in Portland and New York, and now comfortably in Memphis as the darling of the people, what pressure can there be?

"What about you, Tony? Are you stressed?" Link smiled, then turned his head and asked Tony Allen.

"You idiot, you've been demonized by Simmons." Tony Allen rolled his eyes at Link. He was a defensive demon wearing two championship rings from the Celtics and the Grizzlies. He didn't see the storm. Pass?

Those are two championship rings, and the great LeBron James has only one so far. Tony Allen's creed is to fight to the last breath, stress is an excuse for the weak.

Link then walked up to the two youngsters, Jimmy Butler and Tobias Harris. "What about you? Before the playoffs start, we may encounter malicious blocking from other teams."

"That's the best, hehe. I mean...we're going to give it our all, Link!" Butler and Harris wanted to play harder so they could get more minutes.

"Aiya, look at you. So, wouldn't the famous Bill Simmons be disappointed again?" Link shrugged, crumpling Simmons' article into waste paper and throwing it into the trash can.

Unlike other teams, the Grizzlies weren't high-profile talent, and the team wasn't a historic giant.

They're not Lakers, they're not Celtics, they're nothing. They're just the Memphis Grizzlies trying to make their way in the league.

Therefore, the Grizzlies players are less hypocritical. Instead of being stressed out by fierce battles, they get excited. They know very well how this "patchwork" team has become a championship.

pressure? That's for people who carry heavy responsibilities. And the Grizzlies have nothing from the team to the players!

Link knows what makes the Grizzlies different, so he dared to openly express his desire to win 72 wins and the championship on the show. He knew that instead of stressing out the Grizzlies, it would make them energized!

In this way, in a voice of doubt, the Grizzlies began their last one and a half months of the regular season journey.

After participating in the show on March 2, the Cleveland Cavaliers were the first to understand the Grizzlies' burning desire to win.

In the first quarter of the game, the Grizzlies beat the Cavaliers 33 to 15! The Grizzlies were all soldiers, and everyone came out to play as hard as they could.

The slack and exhaustion that people thought did not appear. What appeared in front of the fans was only a vigorous defending champion.

How excited are the Grizzlies in this game? In addition to Link, the team had 3 players who scored 20 and 5 players scored in double figures.

Everyone in the Grizzlies has a strong desire to attack, turning Kelly Irving's efficient 28 points into an empty cut. In the end, the Cavaliers also lost by 15 points.

After the game, people said that the Cavaliers themselves are not strong enough, and they are really vulnerable. This game does not have any reference value.

But soon, the same thing happened to the Washington Wizards.

"Jimmy Butler made a breakthrough and calmly scored the ball in the face of a double team. He sent the ball to Nick Young! Yang made a three-pointer at the buzzer...in! Once again he showed his unparalleled shooting touch. 40 points, 40 points in a quarter! The Grizzlies hit 40 points in the first quarter, setting their third-highest single-quarter scoring record!"

At Verizon Center, the bald, potbellied commentator cheered the Grizzlies with all his might.

Continuing the brutality of the Cavaliers in the previous game, the Grizzlies staged a 40-point violence in a single quarter in Washington. Nick Young ran on the field, as if he had already celebrated his victory three quarters earlier.

Link sat on the bench and applauded silently. He was right, the Grizzlies looked like they did it all with ease.

Who says you have to fight hard to get 72 wins?

With 40 points in a single quarter, the Grizzlies shut down the Wizards in the first quarter. In the next three quarters, Link didn't make a lot of shots. After he scored 21 points, 5 assists and 4 rebounds, he went off to rest.

In the end, the Wizards suffered a 14-point loss at home, and their season-longest 6-game winning streak was also ended by the Grizzlies.

After the game, Wall, who had 23 points, 6 rebounds and 9 assists, shook his head, "Seriously, the Grizzlies have all the conditions to break the 72-win record, I know it's crazy, but play against them. Then you'll know what happened."

For the first time, a star has publicly stated that the Grizzlies can break or tie the 72-win record.

At the beginning of March, the Grizzlies showed their frenzy with a two-game winning streak.

Grizzly bears are scary enough, but encountering them in the jungle isn't out of the question. But if you meet a hungry grizzly bear, that's another story.

Now, those who yearn for the Grizzlies to fail, can only hope for the Eastern Conference.

In mid-March, the Grizzlies will face a back-to-back road game! And these two opponents are the Indiana Pacers, the first in the East, and the Miami Heat, the second in the East!

This round of back-to-back games instantly became the only hope and spiritual support for people to break the Grizzlies' 72-win plan.
