666: Mao Sui recommended himself as a general
"Link has destroyed his opponent again!"
Hubi. Brown laughs like a teenager in his twenties, and it's hard not to be so happy when you get the best vantage point in the best basketball arena in the world every night to see a great superstar perform.
Throughout the game, the Suns' Morris brothers were chattering with Link trash talk. Today, the two brothers did well. They came off the bench and caused a lot of trouble for the Grizzlies.
However, before the end of the third quarter, Link stood up to Markieff. Morris hit a whistle ball with a difficult back-to-back hit to widen the gap to 22 points! It can be regarded as completely killing the suspense of the game.
The moment the ball goes in, Hubi. Brown had the most enjoyable moment of his day – feeling the excitement of the Federal Express Arena.
Amid the roars of the people, Link shook his finger at the Morris brothers.
On the surface, the league does not allow anyone outside of Mutombo to do this. Back then, even if Jordan shook his fingers, he would be whistled for a technical foul.
But after Mutombo's retirement, the league actually turned a blind eye and did not hesitate to shake his fingers. As long as it's not too much, the referee generally won't trouble the players.
And if the referee is really looking for trouble, Link has already thought of a rhetoric, "I'm celebrating myself in front of the fans, not humiliating the opponent." ”
The two Morris brothers looked at the arrogant Link and could only shake their heads secretly. Neither of them could handle him, and Link was truly unstoppable.
While there is still a full quarter left in the game, Grizzlies fans are already celebrating the start of a 17-game winning streak in advance.
After continuing the Nets, the Grizzlies got off to a good start in December. At the same time, it also rewrote the league's longest opening winning streak from 15 consecutive wins to 17 consecutive wins!
As is customary for Jogger, Link didn't play again for the entire fourth quarter. The outcome of the match has been decided, and Joggle will not continue to risk his star on the road.
Link sat on the bench and although he had only played three quarters, he had already scored 24 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists. This statistic is enough for him to be the best in the game after only three quarters of the game.
"Hey Link, how prepared are you for that?" Next to Link, Quinn, who joined the team this summer. Snyder and Link talked.
Although Snyder looks like a villain, he is actually very easy to get along with. It's like Severus in Harry Potter. Snape, when he saw him appear, almost everyone thought he was a villain, and finally realized that he was just bad, and he was a good person.
"What's the matter?" Link wiped his sweat and replied to Snyder.
"What a bet with Jordan! Hahahaha, this is just so exciting, Link! Can you believe it? You're actually betting with Michael and Jordan! No one dared to bet on Jordan because everyone who bet on him lost. Snyder was very excited, as if he was more interested in that than in this game that was going on.
"Hey, don't mention it. No one dared to bet with Jordan, even if they could, they wouldn't dare to win. Link shook his head.
He once heard an anecdote about the fact that in the past, before the Bulls' home game began, a video of horse racing would be played on the big screen at the United Center arena. Then Jordan, the old gambler, made a bet with Pippen to guess which horse would run faster.
As a result, Jordan scored "another" 72 wins.
Later, Jordan learned that the horse racing video in the United Center Arena was not a live broadcast, but a recorded broadcast! The matches all took place the day before. And Pippen knew the outcome of the game in advance.
But he still let Jordan win, just because he was Jordan.
That's why Link said that even if he could win, no one would dare to win him.
Originally, before Link's game started today, he had a casual heads-up fight with his boss Pera, and the matter was over.
But because of Pera and Jordan's gamble, the matter was postponed until tomorrow. Until now, Link didn't know who his opponent was. Just betting with Jordan, there is so much oppression.
"Whoever it is, Jordan is going to lose this time. Let him know that this is no longer his age, hahahahaha. Snyder looked like he couldn't wait to eat melons, and he wasn't the one who was going to shoot three points tomorrow anyway.
Link was distressed, although Pera's original intention was to donate money if she lost, otherwise she would not have repeatedly picked opponents who were better than herself.
If he wants to win, he's going to pick the Mavericks' Cuban.
But Link doesn't want to lose, and that's what he does with Jordan. Even if it's a gamble, Link doesn't want to lose. What's more, this has changed from a player vs boss to a player vs a player, and the nature is completely different.
In the midst of cranky thoughts, the signal for the end of the game finally sounded. 91-110, the Phoenix Suns lost to the Grizzlies for the second time in a row this season. The Morris brothers combined for 28 points today, which was quite efficient.
But the Grizzlies played a perfect performance of seven players scoring in double figures, squeezing the Suns to the death and bagging a 17-game winning streak.
With a 17-game winning streak, it's not just the league's longest opening streak. It is also ranked seventh in the longest winning streak in league history.
In NBA history, there have been four teams that have won 17 consecutive games in a single season: the Washington Congress in 1946-1947, the Celtics in 1959-1960, the Mavericks led by Nowitzki in 2006-2007, and the Suns led by Nash in 2006-2007. The four teams share the league's seventh-longest winning streak, with the Grizzlies being the fifth.
Of course, there are three other teams on their head that have won 18 in a row. However, it is believed that the Grizzlies will soon join them.
Another perfect night, and after the game, Link was interviewed by reporters as always. But today, the question asked by the reporter has nothing to do with the competition!
"Link, just when you were on a 17-game winning streak, Michael. Jordan has announced the players who will be on his way to completing the bet. Gilbert, who has faded out of sight for a long time. Arenas will represent Jordan to complete the three-point duel with you. Is there anything you would like to say about this? ”
"What? Arenas? "Link was in the circle, he thought that Jordan would find Durant, find Kobe Bryant or even James. But Arenas? What's going on?
Arenas has largely disappeared from the NBA since he was cut by the Orlando Magic in 2011. From 2012 to 2013, he briefly played in the CBA, but naturally failed to reach the height of Marbury.
Just a week ago, Arenas said in an interview with TMZ that he would never appear on the professional basketball court again, which is a formal announcement of his retirement. 、
Is it such a guy who has announced his retirement and has ceased to be a superstar in the league many years ago, and will be selected by Jordan to challenge himself?
What the heck!
The only thing Arenas and Jordan have in common is that they both played for the Wizards. But in 2003, when Arenas joined the Wizards, Jordan had just retired, so the two were teammates at all.
How did these two guys get together?
"Are you sure it's Arenas?" Afraid that the reporter would make a mistake, Link asked again.
"Gilbert. Arenas, yes, it's him. The reporter nodded affirmatively.
Seeing that Link was a little confused, the reporter immediately explained, "This summer, after seeing that the 50-year-old Jordan can still dunk, Arenas once said that he wanted to play a heads-up game with Jordan. Of course, Jordan didn't take it. So after this happened, Arenas approached Jordan overnight and offered to play for Jordan. Jordan also said that if Arenas can win you, meet Arenas and fight him. ”
As a result, Arenas shot 96 of 100 from three-point range in the Bobcats training gym! Jordan immediately decided, let Arenas challenge you! ”
"How many hits are 100?" After listening to the reporter's explanation, Link felt that this matter was even more evil.
Later, the video of Curry shooting 94 out of 100 three-pointers in the practice court exploded on the Internet. Although it was just training, it was already quite an exaggerated three-point shooting percentage.
However, the reporter just said that Arenas shot 96 of 100 three-pointers in the training field? Two more than Curry, who scored like a free throw in the future!?
How is this possible!? It's been a long time since Arenas played at a high level. Although Arenas has a decent three-point shooting percentage in his NBA career, at 35.1%. But the shooting percentage of 96 of 100 shots still scared Link.
The reporter seemed to have discovered Link's thoughts, so he smiled, "If you don't believe me, you can go to the Internet and watch the video." The video of Arenas' shot has been released and is genuine. ”
Hearing that there was still a video from the reporter, Link suddenly remembered that before he crossed over, he had really watched the video of Arenas shooting three points after retiring.
The thing was that Arenas and Nick. Yang Xia bet on three points, and the loser will give the other party 100,000.
As a result, Arenas made 95 of 100 three-pointers on video, while Nick. Yang has not shown his face for unknown reasons.
People say it's okay Nick. Yang didn't show his face, otherwise it would be a disgrace.
Now, and Arenasby is three points from teammate Nick. Yang has become himself, Link can't escape, can't learn from Nick. Yang pretended to evaporate like that.
If you are beaten by a retired player, it will be a real rollover. And Arenas is also a strong man, and he is very eager to win a one-on-one chance with Jordan. So, the "general" will definitely not release water.
Link covered his forehead and walked to the players' tunnel, all he could do was feel his brain ache now.
Really, don't bet on Jordan.
