1240: 11 years of the past

The commercial shooting of Doncic and Link went very smoothly, of course, ended with Doncic receiving 10,000 damage.

In Memphis, Doncic learned for the first time what you are or your uncle.

Maybe elsewhere, he is a newcomer to a popular Cambi superstar.

But in Memphis, he is really just a newcomer.

However, Link still invited Doncic to have a meal in the evening, and Link was much more kinder than during the day.

This made Doncic think that what Link said to him during the day was just a joke.

"It's too early to be discouraged. There are more hits in the game tomorrow night."

Now when I think of this sentence, Doncic feels cold on his back. However, seeing Link being so kind at dinner, Doncic doesn't take it too seriously, just pretending that Link is joking.

Speaking of which, the match between the Grizzlies and the Mavericks is also a focus battle.

Although the Mavericks have not entered the playoffs for three consecutive seasons, and Doncic is still in the second grade, he is far from the age to lead the team to gallop.

You should know that Wiggins and Towns, the two top picks, have been together for five years and have not yet been able to take off the Timberwolves.

But this season, the Mavericks' record is quite outstanding. They have played 5 wins and 3 losses and have not fallen out of the top eight in the West.

And in the three games that were lost, one of them played against the Trail Blazers until the last second before the winner was decided.

In one of the games, I fought with the Lakers until the last moment before I lost.

In short, the strength shown by the Mavericks this season is not just the level of the team.

Most people believe that the Mavericks can return to the playoffs this season under Doncic's leadership. So the next game is basically a showdown between the playoff teams.

Moreover, Doncic has the nickname "Link Successor".

This greatly increases the drama of the game.

The next game is very important to Doncic.

This is not just a good opportunity for him to prove himself, the Dallas Mavericks also need to win every game as much as possible this season to ensure a ticket to the playoffs.

Therefore, in tomorrow's game, Doncic will definitely not give in easily.

Link's words may be just a joke, but Doncic will definitely do his best.

Thinking of this, Doncic is even looking forward to tomorrow's game.

How much sensation would it cause if Link could be defeated at the Federal Express Arena?

Memphis fans will definitely not turn a blind eye to themselves.

Doncic smiled. This season, Doncic, who has fully adapted to the NBA rhythm, can feel that he is indeed more comfortable on the NBA court than last year.

He undoubtedly became stronger than last season.

It might be really possible to defeat Link!

After all, he almost lost James before. In the last game against the Lakers, the Mavericks mainly lost in the last minute.

If you are lucky, Doncic probably won.

If you can defeat James, you can defeat Link.

Well, that's probably true.

Bored at the hotel at night, Doncic watched the preview analysis of the game tomorrow by several sports channels before the game.

He hoped to hear some voices that were the same as his own, but the result disappointed him.

"Luca is indeed the best talented newcomer in the league. He may directly pull the Dallas Mavericks into the playoffs! But defeating Link? Are you serious about asking this question?"

"Luca Doncic is known as Link's successor, which means that he is only likely to be close to Link, not surpass. Link is almost surpassing Michael now, so people don't know how to use the title of Jordan's successor on Link."

Doncic watched the show depressedly, and everyone thought that the Mavericks would die tomorrow.

Finally, Doncic was surprised to find that his former teammate, also a senior of his Mavericks, and retired German basketball legend Dirk Nowitzki, is on a guest appearance on a show.

"Tomorrow, the Dallas Mavericks will meet the Memphis Grizzlies. I believe fans have been waiting for this game for a long time. The Mavericks have almost made the top teams in the league many times this season, and the Grizzlies are in an unstoppable seven consecutive victories. So Dirk, how likely do you think the Mavericks will defeat the Grizzlies tomorrow?"

During the show, Shaquille O'Neal was asking Nowitzki a fan who was very interested and Doncic was also very interested.

Doncic knew that as a Mavericks' celebrity and his former teammate, Nowitzki has always been very focused on him.

He was looking forward to hearing a unique answer from Dirk.

The camera was given to Dirk, and sure enough, the German smiled confidently: "Luca's talent is very terrible. Really, I played with him last season, and I have never seen such an outstanding young man. His abilities may be better than all players of the same age."

When Doncic heard Dirk praise him, he felt so sweet in his heart.

Finally someone thinks that they can defeat Link!

"This season, Luca has also played a few good goals. A few days ago, didn't he almost beat LeBron and Damien Lillard?"

"Comfortable!" Doncic now thinks Dirk is the handsomeest man in the world.

"But" However, Nowitzki on TV said halfway, but answered a "But".

The smile on Doncic's face gradually disappeared because generally speaking, "but" nothing good is followed by "should" be.

"But Link is also the most incredible player I've ever met. The first time I really remembered him was in the 2011 Western Conference Finals. Everyone knows that the Mavericks and I defeated the Big Three Miami that year and I won the championship."

"Many people find it incredible that we can beat the Heat. But in fact, I think the strongest opponent in the playoffs that year was not the Heat, but the Grizzlies encountered in the Western Conference Finals!"

Nowitzki's eyes were deep, and he looked like he was seriously recalling the past.

"Link has caused us a lot of trouble. There were several games, and the Grizzlies were actually just one step away from winning. I think if we had not had the experience of the Western Conference Finals, we might not have been able to win the championship in the end. From then on, I believe Link would become an amazing guy. You know, that year, he was only in the first grade!"

"Everyone knows what happened next, he has indeed become an amazing guy. So, Link is different from others. Luca may be able to beat LeBron and Damien Lillard, but Link is haha, maybe he has to pay more tuition."

Nowitzki finished speaking and waved his hand with a smile.

"So you think Luca's chance tomorrow is not great?" O'Neal was a little shocked. This was the first time he heard Dirk tell his story about 11 years and Link.

"Yes, Luca may need some luck if she wants to win."

In front of the TV, Luca Doncic instantly petrified.

Doncic knew that there might be no one in this world who knew him better than Dirk Nowitzki, a good teacher.

Others may underestimate him, but Nowitzki definitely won't.

However, now even Dirk says so

"Damn, why can't he be defeated?" Doncic was even more unwilling to give up. Of course, he knew Link's strength. He also played against the Grizzlies last season.

But no matter how powerful a player is, he cannot guarantee to win every game.

The old horse is still losing its way.

Besides, I and the Mavericks have become much stronger this season.

For a young man like Doncic, the more you say a person is stronger, the more motivated he will be.

Since you all say Link is unbeatable, then defeat it once and show everyone!

He respects Link, but defeating Link is his way of showing respect.

Doncic then turned off the TV and went to bed early.

He needs to accumulate energy so that all his strength will burst out on the court tomorrow night.
Chapter completed!
