Link would never have imagined that Mike. Miller and Nick. Yang's departure will make him the object of everyone's talk again.

These two transfers, which obviously have nothing to do with Link, have made fans find some kind of connection.

So, one day in mid-July, a fan summarized all the discussions into an article and posted it on social media.

Subsequently, the article went viral and spread wildly on social networks!

"At the beginning, Nick. When Young joined the Grizzlies with the name of 'cancer', who would have thought that he would be able to win a $20 million contract in his career? People say Mike. Miller is retiring this season, but he is still being coaxed by various teams. Push the clock forward a little further, Vasquith, Speights and other players have all received big contracts that they couldn't have imagined before because they played for the Grizzlies. Most of the players who came out of the Grizzlies have almost all come out of the Grizzlies with higher values! ”

"Now, for now, let's look at the players who haven't left Memphis yet. Jimmy. Butler, a late-first-round rookie, but if he were to be put on the free agent market now, he would definitely earn more than 10 million a year. And Jordan, who was drafted along with Butler at the end of the first round. What about Hamilton? Does anyone remember this guy? He has long been forgotten by the NBA! ”

"Matthew. Dellavedova, an undrafted Australian point guard who looks unremarkable and doesn't seem to have any shine. But he was the second point guard for a championship team last season, and he's playing pretty well. Now, there is no basketball fan who doesn't know Dellavedova. ”

"Having said that, I just want to make one point – Link is a super good leader! Well, you might think it's ridiculous why this article, which is clearly describing the Grizzlies' role players, suddenly mentions Link. In fact, this one begins with an article about Link. The previous examples were just trying to highlight Link's greatness. ”

"After LeBron went to Miami, he made obvious players like 'Dragon King' Bosh completely reduced to a tool man with no sense of existence. Wherever Marbury went, there was disaster. When Howard was in Los Angeles, he directly ruined a big club. Not all star players can make their teammates better, but Link did! ”

"Almost all the players who played around Link have gotten better than before. Whether it's Nick who wins a big contract. Young, or Butler and Dellavedova who counterattacked from the low pick. At the Memphis Grizzlies, at Link's side, they were both successful. These players have gone on completely different life trajectories before and after joining the Grizzlies. A star winning a Grand Slam may not be enough to prove his leadership qualities. But if a star can make everyone who comes to this team better, then he is undoubtedly a great leader! And Link, that's the kind of player! ”

Link smiled himself when he saw the article. After being a professional player for so many years, this is the first time I have seen an article that blows me so wildly.

However, Link estimates that most of the comments under the article must be attacking themselves, or complaining about the author of the article.

But surprisingly, most of the comments below the article agree with the author's point of view!

"A leader who can make everyone around him better is really rare in this day and age."

"Except for Guy and Mayo in the early days, you hardly hear of any teammate Link has had conflicts and scandals with."

"Almost all the players who have moved out have a high opinion of Link."

"Now, we may understand that Zach. Why Randolph was willing to take a pay cut. Sometimes, a good team leader is just a charisma that is irresistible! ”

"Hahaha, this article came out at such a good time, it just slapped LeBron who was jumping around."

Link was stunned, he had been used to being a villain, and suddenly became a decent person, which caught him off guard.

Naturally, there were also scolding Link in the comment area, but this time, these voices scolding Link were completely drowned out by those voices of praise.

In an instant, the concept of "the best team leader" was hyped all over the basketball world.

Link didn't expect that he was scolded so badly during the season, but he was "whitewashed" in the offseason.

But later Link found out that this was not because the fans suddenly loved him, but because he relied on his peers to set him off!

After James made his own decision 2.0, he was almost met with resistance from fans around the world. With the exception of a few die-hard James fans, most people expressed disgust at James' approach.

Looking at Link, who has never made any trouble, Link renewed his contract with the Grizzlies on the first day of the transfer market this summer, and the contrast between the two is quite stark.

Although the Grizzlies are the winners this year, fans also believe that even if the winner is replaced by the Heat, with Link's character, he will still renew his contract with the Grizzlies as soon as possible!

Link was a little bit laughable, and no matter how hard he tried to maintain his image last season, he couldn't get rid of labels like "villain", "badass" and so on.

It's a good thing this summer, I didn't do anything, and I was enjoying my vacation, but I suddenly "turned positive".

It's still the same sentence, thank you for the foil!

And Nick, who has obviously left Los Angeles. After this incident, Yang did not forget to give Link a "divine assist".

Nick. Young played two years with the Grizzlies and was the only player in those two years without giving Link a single assist...... But after he left, he "assisted" Link once.

"I saw the discussion and I'm glad that his greatness and excellence have finally been discovered. In fact, Link is indeed the greatest leader of the Alliance. He always leads by example and always brings us all together. With Link in his hands, the Grizzlies' training hall is always full of energy. I will always love him, and he will always be my good brother. ”

Nick. Yang posted his opinion on Link on social media, which undoubtedly added fuel to the fire and added fuel to Link's fire!

Former teammates took the initiative to stand up and prove Link's greatness, which made Link's name as the "Great Leader" completely solidified.

Link is now a little unaccustomed to seeing himself become a national idol.

Of course, the "Great Leader" moniker not only made Link beloved by fans, but also gave the Grizzlies some benefit in recruiting free agents.

Vince. When Carter was in contact with the Grizzlies, he was very concerned about it, "I really want to see what I can do with Link." ”

"Trust me, Vince. Whether it's a veteran or a youngster, as long as it's a player who plays next to Link, almost all of them will be reborn, even if you're no exception. During those years in Orlando and Dallas, you gradually faded out of sight. But now, as long as you sign this contract, you can get back everything you once had. We need you, and Link needs you, Vince! ”

Chris. Wallace never imagined that one day, Link's leadership ability could become one of the conditions for the Grizzlies to attract free agents.

Carter was obviously still a little confused about whether to go to a place like Memphis, but when the topic of Link's leadership skills became hot, Carter was instantly intrigued.

He really wanted to see what kind of magic Link had. He's also curious to see how good it can be to play next to Link.

Looking at the contract on the table, Carter curled the corners of his mouth slightly, "It's a pleasure to be able to partner with the best leader in the league." ”

An hour later, the Grizzlies officially announced that they had signed "Half-Man, Demigod" Vince for a three-year, 9 million, which is much lower than the market price. Carter.

Next season, the seasoned veteran will be on his way to assisting Link on his way to a third in a row. With Carter's signing, the Grizzlies' operation this summer is basically over, and their roster is quite saturated. Unless there are special circumstances such as injuries or illnesses, there is no need to make any changes.

It is said that the Dallas Mavericks wanted to keep Carter with a contract of 3 years and 12 million, but Carter refused.

This is not surprising, though.

"What more can I say? Link's personal charisma, of course, is greater than the charisma of $3 million. ”

Chris. Wallace said proudly in an interview with reporters.
