409: Randolph, a veteran of the love field

Link's selection of the West of the Week is well deserved. Although there is James. Harden and Durant are two strong opponents, but Link's 43 points in one game and 34 points in one game, coupled with the Grizzlies' undefeated record so far, are enough for him to overshadow all opponents.

After all, in addition to personal data, the team's record is also a consideration for the Player of the Week selection. And Harden and Durant both lost to Link this week.

As for the East, Anthony was able to surpass James to win the Weekly Championship, and Link was a little surprised.

Because in Link's impression, Anthony and the Knicks seem to have been tepid all the time. But after looking at Anthony's stats and the Knicks' record, Link instantly frowned.

So far in the regular season, the Knicks' record is 6-1! Moreover, they have just experienced a wave of six consecutive wins!

On November 2, the Knicks slaughtered the Heat by 20 points! Anthony's 30 points and 10 rebounds were also much better than James' 23 points.

On Nov. 4, the Knicks beat the 76ers by another 16 points. Anthony scored 27 points and was still efficient.

The 5-day win over the Mavericks, Anthony scored 31 points. No. 9 beat the 76ers again, and the Knicks simply won by 22 points...... Until Nov. 15, when they faced the formidable San Antonio Spurs, the Knicks still won.

6 games, 6 wins. With the exception of the one against the Spurs, the Knicks were able to win by more than 10 points per game. Cameron. Anthony averaged 28.7 points and 7.0 rebounds per game this week, which is much better than James in terms of statistics and records!

You know, the Heat's current record is only 5-3.

After watching the Knicks' journey so far this season, Link also instantly paid attention to the next opponent.

This season's Knicks are very strong, and even the Heat have been overturned by them, so it's better to be careful.

When he first saw the schedule, Link had always regarded the Heat and Thunder as his main rivals. As for the Knicks, to be honest, Link thinks it's a little lower than the first two opponents.

But now, that may not be the case.

"Link, do you get a lot of texts every day?"

"Huh?" Link looked up and saw that Rachel had been staring at him.

"Uh...... You know, after every game, my teammates, family, friends, managers, business partners, etc., send me messages of congratulations, dozens of them. If I read them one by one, I'm afraid my phone's battery will not be enough. ”

"Yes...... In other words, every time I send you a congratulatory text message, don't you see it? For the second time today, Link saw Rachel's disappointed look.

"Oh, although I may not read them one by one, I can still feel everyone's hearts." Link scratched his head in embarrassment, he was indeed grateful for everyone's concern, but reading dozens of unread text messages at a time, Link really couldn't read it.

"Alright, let's start the interview, you have to go to training in the afternoon." Rachel didn't discuss the matter again, she adjusted her expression, and instantly smiled as a journalist.

"Rachel, it doesn't have to be like this between you and me. I've never treated you as a journalist, so you don't need to put such an official smile at me. Link felt a little uncomfortable, what was Rachel disappointed about? Don't read her text messages yourself?

"It's okay, let's get started, I'm going to turn on the voice recorder."

As soon as Link wanted to say something, Rachel came up with the first question. Link forcibly held back what he wanted to say, and a boring interview began.

※※※

In the training hall, the Grizzlies finished the first round of training and are now sitting on the floor of the training hall to rest.

Stevens took a break from practice to discuss tactics with his two assistant coaches.

Jimmy. Butler's kid is still working on his shooting, and according to Link, he's learned how to defend and can now start learning how to attack.

"Uncle Planter" Mark. Gasol grabbed Iguodala and told him about his vegetable growing experience, and the most important thing was that Iguodala still listened to it with relish......

Conley is coaching Vasquith one-on-one, Tony. Allen, Spetts, and Nick. Yang was discussing a hand set up in the evening.

And Zach. Randolph, circling around Link.

"I said, you kid didn't feel right today." Randolph looked at Link sitting on the wooden floor and touched his chin thoughtfully.

"What's wrong? Aren't you annoyed that you're going around me in circles, Zach? Link shook his head, he was used to all of Randolph's teasing behaviors.

"I can't tell, you're just not normal today anyway. I don't like to laugh, and I don't like to talk anymore. Just Nick. Yang told me that the way you don't speak is very much like his former teammate Yi Jianlian. What do you think? I won the best of the week, and I was not happy at all. ”

"Come on, this isn't the first time I've won the Weekly Awards, right, do you have to be excited?"

"When Kobe Bryant won the championship for the fifth time, I saw that he was also jumping with excitement. Don't make excuses, Link, you can't hide it from me. What else can a boring man like you for? You're not doing it for work, you're doing it for women. Now that you're working well, it's definitely because of women! Say, was it dumped by your reporter's little girlfriend! Randolph laughed, looking as if he had solved a big case.

"Poof! What bullshit logic! Also, what is a boring man like me, my life is colorful, and the cacti have two pots! Also, how many times have I said that Rachel is not my girlfriend. ”

"Not your girlfriend, who went to Spain alone with you in the summer? Do you want you to hug her and dunk it? If you have something to do, you still came to Memphis to do an interview with you? Hey, you slept separately when you went to Spain? ”

"Of course!"

Randolph spread his hands when he heard Link's answer, "So you're a boring man. ”

"Okay, okay, don't judge me here. The next game you have to play with Cameron. Anthony is in the opposite position, he is not inefficient when he plays the No. 4 position this season, you still have to think about how to not be kicked by him. Link stood up, picked up the basketball and joined Butler in his shooting practice.

Randolph shook his head as he looked at Link who had left in a hurry. As a man who was already the father of his children before he was married, Randolph felt that Link was an idiot enough.

At the end of the day's workout, Link practiced two sets of shots to keep his touch and drove home.

Tomorrow is the game, and Link doesn't want to consume too much before the game.

When he got home, Link was studying video footage of the Knicks' game. But after watching it for an hour, I couldn't help but touch out my phone.

In the text message column on the mobile phone, the red number 99+ is very conspicuous. Generally speaking, when there is something important, the other party will usually call or use social software to contact Link. As a result, text messages are mostly cookie-cutter blessings.

However, at this time, Link clicked on the text message bar that he never reads, and as expected, most of them were mass text messages such as "Congratulations on winning the victory" and "Come on, Nike is with you".

But that's not what Link wanted to see today, he deliberately looked for Rachel's blessings to himself in a bunch of text messages.

"Playing beautifully Link, your second half turn the tide today was fantastic! The three-point shooting you've practiced this summer after the dribble has worked very well. Let's have a good rest after going back, by the way, don't forget the interview tomorrow morning, I'll rush over as soon as I get off the plane~"

This one is from after the last game against the Thunder.

"Hahaha! Big windmill dunk! Are you sure!? It's terrible, you can dunk so fancy, next time you perform an even harder one! Rest well, and in two days in Oklahoma, I'm sure you'll win! ”

This one came after the Heat.

"43 points! A new career score! It's crazy! I knew you weren't going to let the Rockets down, you kicked the Rockets in the ass again, and made them abandon you in the first place, good Link! By the way, I got the chance to interview you in Memphis next week! It's been a long time, and I'm still a little excited! ”

This one undoubtedly came after the Rockets scored 43 points.

Link continued to scroll down and found that Rachel texted herself after each game. Although it is also a congratulatory message, it is different from those that are copied and pasted in groups, and it can be seen that every piece of Rachel's post is carefully written.

As a result, Rachel learned today that Link hadn't read the text message he had carefully written, so it was no wonder that he showed that disappointed expression.

Link patted his head, this thing was indeed not done properly, it was very rude, and it was indeed very hurtful.

But the big war is imminent, and Link really doesn't have the heart to think about anything else. So, he dialed his universal manager, Jeff. Austin's phone.

"Jeff, there's a little thing I want to trouble you. Ask someone to help me get a phone card and buy a mobile phone. ”

"What? Your phone is missing? Austin smiled, what kind of request is this? It's just a matter of making a few phone calls.

"No, I just think it's time for me to have a private number."
