When Link drove to the car wash yesterday, everyone in the car wash was shocked.

The first thing is that an NBA star came to the store. The second thing is that Link's car experience was so weird.

The next day, Link was being messed up in the parking lot and became popular all over the Internet. It turned out that Randolph uploaded the video online. There was no doubt that this attracted a lot of comments and likes. For a time, Link almost became a local internet celebrity in Memphis.

Seeing the Grizzlies players happy and Randolph is so "loved" to the rookie, the impact of various negative news from the Grizzlies some time ago has now been completely eliminated.

Everyone can see that the Grizzlies are now a united and friendly team, but the way of expressing friendship between players is a bit "strange".

The Grizzlies' situation surprised many basketball critics. In their expectation, the Grizzlies who lost Rudy Guy should have lost a lot. However, now, the team is more radical.

One of the commentators even joked: "The Grizzlies are still eighth in the West now because Guy was not injured earlier."

Link and Randolph once again became a treasure talked about by fans across the United States, but when the fans were still immersed in the funny daily life of the Grizzlies players, neither Link and Randolph were hilarious anymore. Because today, the Grizzlies will usher in their last opponent before the All-Star Game, the Philadelphia 76ers.

Randolph and Link have always been very serious when dealing with the game.

During this period, the Philadelphia 76ers were definitely not a weak team. They at least had the qualification to enter the Eastern Conference playoffs. But if the 76ers were strong, it seemed that they were not much stronger. After all, with the 76ers' performance, they were not even able to stick to the side of the playoffs in the West.

Therefore, if we are in normal times, there will definitely be few people who are willing to pay attention to the game between the Grizzlies and the Western Conference playoffs fringe teams like the 76ers.

But today is different. This game has long attracted much attention and fans are looking forward to it. The reason is simple. The 76ers have the second pick Evan Turner this year, while the Grizzlies have Link, who is known as one of the strongest rookies this year.

The "serial" of Link's high-ranking rookie has been suspended for a long time, and fans have not seen a direct showdown between this rookie for a long time.

Moreover, the two most controversial points in this year's All-Star Rookie Tournament are that they were not selected, but were selected in the draft. Since the list of rookie tournaments was announced, the discussion on which Evan Turner or Link will be better has not stopped.

Now, the discussion can be paused. Because soon, these two guys will do a real fight. The actual actions are more convincing than the experts' discussion.

Sitting on the team bus, Evan Turner was always very impetuous. Just a year ago, he was considered one of the most promising players. Apart from Wall, who was considered to be physically explosive, Turner has always been the most favored college player.

The John Wooden Award, the Oscar Robertson Award, the Associated Press Best Player Award, the Naismith Award and the National Coach Award for the Best Player of the Year Award during college Turner won the award. He was the first player in American college basketball history to complete a Grand Slam in his personal honors.

This kind of superstar player in college is nothing wrong with being selected in the second-tier show. It can be said that the 76ers have high expectations for him.

In the NBA, Evan Turner has not failed to perform well. On November 7, 2010, Turner replaced the injured Iguodala for the first time, scoring a double-double with 14 points and 10 rebounds. On November 29 of the same year, Turner scored 2 points in 29 minutes in the game against the Suns, which also made people talk about it.

However, there are so few highlights like Turner's performance, so few that people don't have a deep impression of him. So far this season, Turner averaged 72 points, 9 rebounds and 20 assists per game, which is really far from his college years.

In fact, the All-Star Rookie Tournament does not require players particularly high. New York's second round pick Landry Fields averaged only 97 points per game. But even so, Fields once led Turner in the ranking of the rookie tournament shortlist.

But now, both of these guys have been killed by Link.

The talented player a year ago is now doing so poorly, which naturally makes Turner feel very disastrous. As a young player, he has been holding his breath in his heart. He thinks he has not finished playing yet, and he will sooner or later show his performance in college. He just hasn't adapted to the NBA game yet.

Therefore, before every game, he fantasized that he could make a big splash today. After coming to Memphis, Turner felt very strong. Because what he faced was the undraft who kicked himself out of the rookie tournament!

Turner played in college for three seasons and was considered a Naa old bird. But he had never heard of the name of Link, a senior player. Later, after checking, he found out that Link couldn't even play Naa's first-level game for a long time.

Turner doesn't want to lose to a draft pick with such a low starting point. For him, it's not only about victory or defeat, but also about honor.

A second-tier show actually depends on defeating the draft and finding a sense of honor. It is hard to get involved in the NBA.

"Did you see what the media said? It seems like today is your night with Evan Turner." In the Federal Express Arena, Randolph started chatting with Link while practicing mid-range shooting at the right bottom corner.

"When did even Zach Randolph start to care about what the media said?" Link did not answer positively. He really didn't know how to comment on Turner.

If you see a rookie who is 2 meters tall and can play point guard in the NBA2k game, you will probably choose him with the second pick without hesitation.

If you don't realize it later, Turner's performance in Naa is indeed worth the second place. But as someone who has seen Turner's future appearance, Link knows that the biggest problem after entering the NBA is that he can't do it at all.

In Naa's all-round players, many of them will become representatives of "all-inability" after entering the NBA. Turner is called "all-in-one" in Naa, but in the NBA, it is just not good at anything, and there is no outstanding point.

You said you are the forward of the organization, but you didn't see what you organized after giving the ball to you. The big brothers played on the court. Do they listen to your arrangement? Can the NBA be easily played with tactics?

You said you were a scorer, but you didn't see any killer moves. You can do anything to attack, but you are not sure about anything, so you can't shoot far.

You said your defense and rebounding are good, and there are many rebounding men and defensive monsters who are more abnormal than you after entering the NBA.

Nash's defense is not good, but he is accurate, and he can really revitalize a team's offense. James' shooting is not reliable, but he drilled one in the inside line, and few people in the league can stop him. In the case of unstable shooting, he is still a big attack weapon. Let's talk about Anthony who broke out with Link some time ago. What's wrong with not defending? If you get 2 points, I'll get 4 points.

But what about Turner? He really can't do anything.

So, Turner was completely lost when he arrived at the NBA. Even he didn't know what he could do, and he would definitely not be able to perform well if he couldn't find the positioning.

"I don't care what the media said. I just want to remind you, don't take it lightly today. That guy must have come to kill you, and he will try his best. This is his best chance to prove himself from the front, so he won't let it go. In some cases, a player may be able to perform beyond his strength."

"Well, that's right. I also need to prove myself and prove that my All-Star position is well deserved. Don't worry, Zach, today won't be a night for me and Turner."
