At noon on July 2, the long-awaited Memphis fans finally waited for the Grizzlies' first signing of the summer.

Derek. Rose posted a photo with Link in the showroom on his social media, and at the same time, the Grizzlies officially announced that they signed Derrick for two years and $13 million. Ross!

Next season, he will be back in the No. 1 jersey and competing at the Federal Express Arena!

Rose originally wanted to continue wearing No. 25, but he regained the courage to switch back to No. 1.

He told himself that if he didn't even have the courage to catch up with him, how could he challenge for the world championship?

The addition of Rose has made Grizzlies fans extremely excited.

Although Rose is no longer the youngest MVP of the year, he is not the best player in the league.

But Rose's popularity is very high, and no matter which team he joins, the fans there will be warmly welcomed.

Therefore, the arrival of Rose still somewhat relieved Memphis fans.

Of course, there are some people who are not optimistic about this signing.

Among them, the most positive is Sam. Smith.

Less than ten minutes after the Grizzlies announced the signing of Rose, Sam. Smith's social media accounts have been updated again.

"Derek. Ross? If the Grizzlies think they can go on to win championships by signing a player like that, then good luck to them. ”

and Sam. Smith has a lot of people who think the same way, and the Grizzlies taking Rose is a good signing indeed.

After all, the Grizzlies don't have much of a choice right now. There are fewer and fewer quality players in the free agent market.

Moreover, the Grizzlies have so little salary space.

How much money can be used to do as much as you want, and it is indeed very good to be able to sign Rose under such circumstances.

But could this signing really bring the Grizzlies closer to a championship? No one would think so.

Compared with the Whiteside trade, Redick joining the Pelicans and other blockbuster news, Rose's joining the Grizzlies did not cause much waves.

Again, no one believes Ross anymore.

Those who believe in him may be himself and Link.

That night, when all the fans were waiting for the latest transfer news.

Sam. Smith's social media feed, but a comment suddenly appeared.

"Shut your stinky mouth and give Lao Tzu a good look."

Link finally has a smug on Sam. Smith responded!

At the same time, Link posted a P picture of himself and Rose both wearing Grizzlies jerseys on his social media.

The words on the picture are very simple: "It is impossible for two MVPs to lose, the champion may have parallel goods, but the MVP does not." ”

※※※

Link finally responds to Sam. Smith, which made Grizzlies fans cheer.

Link is still the same Link, and although he has become a husband and father, he still won't be gentle with his enemies.

And Link's sentence "The champion may have parallel goods, but the MVP does not" has received a lot of praise.

Link is well aware that Rose is by no means the kind of player who is content with mediocrity.

And his current state, to be honest, is better than most people think.

It is no exaggeration to say that there is not much difference between Rose now and Wade, who helped the Grizzlies win the championship a few years ago.

Even in terms of projection, Rose was more stable than Wade in his twilight years at that time.

Wade could have helped the Grizzlies win a championship at that time, why couldn't Rose?

After the departure of Dinwiddie and others, Rose will take on the role of the Grizzlies' sixth man next season.

Link believes Rose could make the Grizzlies' second team a threat.

Of course, signing one Ross is certainly not enough. The Grizzlies now add Rose, and there are only 8 people in total, which is not even a complete team.

At least three or four more signings would have to be made for the Grizzlies to be considered complete.

But soon, Chris. Wallace and Robert. There was also progress on Pera's side.

Link is not the only one struggling to recruit players.

Early in the morning of July 3, the Grizzlies officially announced that they had signed the third and fourth swingman Jermichael. Green.

Green is 2.06 meters tall and has an arm span of 2.19 meters. Solid defensively, solid three-point shooting, excellent athleticism, and tough style, he is a true role player.

He's the kind of big forward that is typical of the small-ball era, able to play from the number three to the number five.

He can be understood as a Harrell who is slightly weaker in defense and athleticism, but has a stronger projection.

Last season with the Clippers, he shot 41% from three-point range!

This kind of hard, black forward who can shoot three-pointers and is not yet old should be very sought-after and should not be the turn of the Grizzlies.

And so it is, Jermichael. Green is considered one of the best non-superstar players in the free agent market this summer.

As many as 8 teams have made offers to him, and the amount is not low.

But in the end, he chose the grizzly bear, who didn't have much money.

The reason is simple when Chris. When Wallace uttered the phrase "You can help Link to the top", Jermichael. Green was completely fallen.

Green, like Link, is an undrafted pick. Once, he also played in the Development League, and even had the idea of simply giving up the NBA and going abroad to pan for gold.

It was Link's success that inspired him not to give up on his NBA dream. Eventually, he survived and became one of the hottest players in the NBA.

Link has always been Jermichael. Green's idol, he couldn't resist the temptation to play with Link.

It's like back then, when countless people wanted to play with Jordan.

So, Jermichael. Green chose Memphis. For the sake of the championship, in order to fight side by side with his idols, he would rather give up some money.

His arrival also greatly replenished the Grizzlies' already vacated No. 4 position.

Grizzlies fans applauded again, thinking that the Grizzlies' current salary space would not be able to win Green. Unexpectedly, Link's influence played a role again.

However, this isn't the Grizzlies' last signing of the day.

On the afternoon of the 3rd, when the fans were still discussing Jermichael. While Green was playing well with the Grizzlies next season, Wallace finalized another signing.

No. 13 pick in '11, averaging 14+6 per game at his peak, forward Markieff played for the Oklahoma City Thunder last season. Morris settles in Memphis.

He signed a one-year contract with the Grizzlies for $3.6 million.

Markieff. Morris has a lot of offensive means, but the three-point is still a little bit off.

In the eyes of many, what the Grizzlies need now is a space-based No. 4 spot. Taking a No. 4 who likes to attack with the ball but is inconsistent with three-point shooting doesn't help Link at all.

Compared to Markieff. Morris, his twin brother Marcus. Morris is clearly better suited to the Grizzlies. It's a pity that Marcus has agreed to sign with Spurs.

But what people never expected was that an hour and a half after signing Markieff, the Grizzlies really took Marcus . Morris also won!

Marcus. Morris and Markeef. Not only do the two look exactly the same, but they also have similar playing styles. But overall, there are still some differences, one of the brothers plays on the inside side and the other on the outside.

Marcus is much more reliable than Markieff's three-point shooting, shooting 37.5 percent from three-point range with the Celtics last season and averaging 13 points per game.

In fact, the Grizzlies signed Markieff. Morris, just to attract his brother to join. The real target of the Grizzlies is Marcus!

Originally, Marcus had agreed to sign with the Spurs. But when he heard that the Grizzlies had signed his brother and wanted to join him as well, Marcus released the Spurs pigeons and signed with the Grizzlies Lightning instead.

The relationship between the two brothers, Marcus and Markieff, was very good, and they played on the same team until college. After entering the NBA, he also had a brief reunion with the Phoenix Suns.

Both brothers have enjoyed the feeling of playing side by side with each other and have expressed their desire to play for the same team on more than one occasion.

Now, there is finally another opportunity to play in a team, and there is still hope of winning the championship, and the brothers naturally will not refuse.

In the case that Marcus has verbally agreed to sign with the Spurs, the Grizzlies came to recruit brotherhood and got Marcus in a daze.

It's just that I pity the Spurs fans, and the quality players in hand just run away.

So far, the Grizzlies have made three signings in one day, and the roster has basically been perfected.

Although the luxury of the lineup is greatly reduced compared to the three-in-a-row championship period, it is absolutely impossible to go to the step of rebuilding.

The most important thing is that the Grizzlies of these three people were all "snatched" from each other, and they were all players who were originally thought that the Grizzlies would not be able to sign.

Green was originally going to re-sign with the Clippers, but was attracted by Link's charisma.

The Morris brothers also agreed with the Pistons and Spurs respectively, but they were packaged and accepted by the Grizzlies.

Counting Rose, who was ready to sign with the Pistons but was persuaded by Link, the Grizzlies have taken four people away from other teams by surprise!

The quality of these four signings is beyond Sam's. Smith's imagination.

The Memphis Grizzlies didn't fall as easily as he thought.
