Link, don't push yourself. ”

As soon as the press conference was over, Link walked briskly to the locker room. So, Jogel, who was following him, shouted.

It stands to reason that having become the player with the most monthly wins in a single season in NBA history, Link should be happy.

But Joggle knew that Link's current performance proved that he was quite angry.

"Huh? What are you talking about? Link turned his head and squeezed out a smile at George.

"You know what I'm talking about, Link. We're full of wounded soldiers this year, we're fucking out of luck! Any idea why only three teams in NBA history have been able to build a three-peat? Because you never know which will come first, tomorrow or the unexpected! We've had too many surprises this season and we can't afford to risk them anymore, Link. We...... We can't lose you! ”

Joggle knows what Link wants to do, he's a competitive guy, and he's not going to let the Warriors get away with it easily.

So in the last half month, he is bound to do his best to keep the first position in the west.

But there is no doubt that this can also greatly increase the risk of injury.

"Not at all, Dave. I just feel like I still have the energy to do it. Don't worry, after retaining the first place in the West in the regular season, I will still be able to hold on in the playoffs! Any idea why only three teams in NBA history have been able to build a dynasty? Because the season isn't over yet. After this season, there will be four. ”

Link patted Joggle on the shoulder and headed back to the locker room.

Joggle sighed, Link was also a paranoid person. Once he decided on something, no one could change his mind.

Is every great superstar such a paranoid?

James can not care about the regular season record, but Link can't. His desire to win may be at the level of Jordan and Kobe.

Probably even better than all of them!

He has become accustomed to sitting in the first position in the West, and he is not willing to give up this position to others easily. It's a symbol of the grizzly bear's strength and a symbol of their dominance over the alliance.

In the final stretch of the road to a three-game winning streak, Link wants the Grizzlies to still walk freely.

Joggle couldn't help but light a cigarette, even though there was a no-smoking sign next to him.

In the last nine games, Joggle only hopes that Link can survive peacefully.

As for the first place in the West...... That's what Link can do.

A minute later, Joggle extinguished his cigarette and walked into his office.

If it were that easy, there would be no point......

He and the Memphis Grizzlies have two paths to go now, either be great or die!

And Link has made his choice.

※※※

The April race has never been so much anticipated.

It stands to reason that in the last half month of the regular season, most of the strong teams will start to save their strength and prepare for the playoffs.

But the Warriors and Grizzlies clearly don't want to stop early, and the two teams will fight for the first place in the West.

At the start of April, both teams went on the offensive at the same time.

The Warriors have always wanted to get close to the Grizzlies, but the difference between the two sides has been slow to get close.

When the Warriors win, the Grizzlies always follow suit.

And every time the Grizzlies lose, the Warriors lose with them......

In the last half month, people have seen how strong the grizzly bear really is. But their ability to keep the Warriors suppressed was not all smooth sailing.

After only a few games in April, Randolph fell injured again.

This time, it was the knee ligament stretch that required two months of recovery.

In other words, the aging "Big Black Bear" is not only unable to play in the regular season, but also unable to play in the playoffs after that.

Although Conley was able to resume training, to be on the safe side and to avoid a recurrence of consecutive injuries, Jogger-like decided to let Conley return to the playoffs.

Carter Sr. and Conley are the same, and Joggle doesn't want a veteran in his 40s to be injured again before the playoffs.

In the face of these injuries, people even think that "even God doesn't want the Grizzlies to keep the first place in the West!" ”

However, the grizzlies used their grit to tell everyone, "The Memphis thing, God said it doesn't count." ”

In this way, the Warriors and Grizzlies were entangled until April 12.

So far, the Warriors have played an excellent record of 66 wins and 13 losses! Not to be outdone, the Grizzlies have a 67-12 record so far.

Although he lost Randolph in April, Conley and Carter were slow to return.

But the Grizzlies still have a one-game lead and firmly occupy the first position in the West!

Never before in the history of the NBA has a team finished second in the division with 66 wins!

66 wins, in most previous seasons, is more than enough to win the first place in the West.

In the 80s of the last century, by Pat. Riley's ShowTime Lakers have had the best regular record of 65 wins.

Jerry. Sloan led the Jazz to their best regular season record, with just 64 wins.

66 wins, this is definitely a rare record in the entire history of the NBA.

In the entire history, there are only a handful of teams that have won more than 66 games in a single season!

Coaches like Popovich and teams like the Spurs have never won 66 games.

But in the 14-15 season, in the years when the Memphis Grizzlies dominated the league, 66 wins were not great at all, and they could only rank second in the West!

This shows how tenacious and heroic the Memphis Grizzlies are! Under Link's leadership, the Grizzlies have done greater than great!

Link did what he said he would, and he really didn't let the Warrior step over the Grizzlies' head before he fell.

"It's amazing, it's hard to imagine that when the Warriors are playing like this, they can't even get the top spot in the division!"

"Everyone thought Link was just hard-mouthed, but he did what he said he would."

"What is the concept of 66 wins? It's already great. But don't forget, the Warriors still have two games to play! In other words, they will surpass 66 wins in the end! But no matter how great they are, they are only a foil for grizzly bears! ”

"It's hard for me to imagine how the Grizzlies can hold down the Warriors with a full pool of injuries, and the Oaklanders are probably celebrating their break with the Grizzlies' dominance of the league. But in the end, it turned out that the grizzly bear is unsurpassable! ”

"The Memphis Grizzlies are the greatest team of the second decade of the 21st century, there's no doubt about it! No, if Link wins the championship again this season, even if you count the previous decade, they will be the greatest of the 21st century! ”

The Warriors' 66 wins did not give them any credit, but instead made the Grizzlies' current 67 wins more valuable.

Since 66 wins is already very powerful, what kind of team must the team that suppressed 66 wins be so powerful?

For a time, the Memphis Grizzlies became the sweetheart of the whole league.

For some reason, there were suddenly fewer people in black grizzly bears. There is a lot of respect for this team that has done its best to protect the first place in the West and has shown a true king's style.

In an instant, the Grizzlies went from being the biggest villain in the league to being a recognized hero across the league.

Everyone wants to see if this great team can hold on until the last minute!

That's right, although the Grizzlies have led the Warriors by a full win, they still haven't "landed safely."

April 13, three days before the end of the regular season. Golden State Warriors and Memphis Grizzlies, one last chance to collide head-on!

If the Warriors win this battle, then they will close the victory, and they will still have a chance to compete for the first place in the West.

If they lose, they won't stand a chance with two wins behind.

For the Warriors, this is the game that will determine whether their hard work will pay off this season.

For fans, it's the final headline before the playoffs.

For Link, however, the game was a little different.

"I would love to destroy other people's beautiful illusions with my own hands, looking at the desperate expressions of the enemy. Then, step over their bloody corpses and embrace victory. In 2013 and 2014, I did that to my opponents. Do you know? Tomorrow, I'm going to do the same. ”

Link and his teammates arrived in Auckland for an interview, and he told reporters.
