266: The Curse of the Unstoppable Winning Streak

"Link's fourth quarter score performance was great, and he was unstoppable. To be honest, he deserved to be selected into the All-Star lineup."

At the post-match press conference, Ray Allen gave Link a very positive comment. Pierce, another player who attended the press conference, chose to use the praises on Jimmy Butler.

"When he was on the court, I didn't know who he was, and I knew nothing about him. But the confrontation lasted for me to completely remember the guy's name. It must be admitted that Jimmy Butler caused me a lot of trouble. If Link was the culprit in killing the game, then Jimmy Butler was an accomplice."

The entire press conference seemed to have become a conference for old players to praise young players. However, Link and Jimmy Butler did have excellent performances, and neither Ray Allen nor Pierce did.

As for the Grizzlies, Hollins attended the press conference alone, answered a few questions quickly, and left in a hurry.

After all, the Grizzlies players have to take more than three hours tonight to get from Boston on the East Coast to San Antonio, and they don't have much time to delay.

After returning to the locker room, the players took a shower and changed their clothes. They headed towards San Antonio without any rest.

In the evening, reporters found Jimmy Butler walking into the boarding gate with three or four bags hanging on him. There is no doubt that he was helping the team's old players carry bags. Rookies help old qualified bags are common in the NBA, and they are almost the default rules for each team.

As for which big shot Jimmy Butler helped carry his bag, the reporters don't know

※※※

Most of the players fell asleep on the plane. Only Jimmy Butler opened his eyes and he was very excited!

In tonight's game, Jimmy Butler was filled with a sense of accomplishment when he defended Pierce again and again, and Pierce showed a surprised expression.

Even when he thinks of these scenes now, Butler feels very happy.

Thinking of this, Butler couldn't help but turn his head and look at Link. Link, who was sitting behind Butler, had been asleep for a long time, and he almost fell asleep as soon as he got on the plane.

After all, Link is the person with the most playing time for the Grizzlies today, and he played for a full 41 minutes. Moreover, Link shouldered the heavy responsibility on both offense and defense.

Without his efforts, there would be no Ray Allen's 28.6% shooting percentage. Without his efforts, there would be no 10 points in the last quarter that laid the victory.

Work hard, this became the most recognizable label in Butler's eyes.

Butler is a very old-school player and he values ​​"status".

This is not to say that he always wants to be the boss, but that Butler respects those veteran players very much.

Although Link came to Grizzlies only a year earlier than him, he is strictly considered his senior. What's more, did Link still pull him to practice together? This made Butler respect Link very much.

Today, Link said that he asked Butler to help carry his bag. It was just a joke. Unexpectedly, Butler finally took all Link's bag on him.

Butler cursed you so much about Link because of Link's hard work that Butler admired him very much.

Butler knew that there was still a fierce battle waiting for them tomorrow night in San Antonio.

So he gradually calmed down his emotions and closed his eyes.

If you have another chance to fight with Link tomorrow, Butler doesn't want to be in poor condition due to lack of sleep.

※※※

Link slept until 10 o'clock the next day before she woke up. For Link, who was not always the first to go to the training ground and often started training in the early morning, it was already considered that he slept very late.

Although the Grizzlies only started training this afternoon, Link hurriedly got up and washed up, not wanting to waste time.

Link looked out the window and felt a little incredible. 12 hours ago, he was still fighting the Green Shirts in North Shore Garden, but at this moment, he was in San Antonio.

After all, it is so perverted that he can arrange such a crazy schedule. Even if he travels for such a long distance, he will feel tired even if he travels, let alone play games.

Link didn't complain anymore, but turned on his phone and browsed today's basketball news.

What made Link pleased was that Jimmy Butler appeared in the news very frequently today. It seems that Butler was indeed a little popular in the game yesterday.

As for Link's own reports, of course, there are quite a few, and most of them are positive. After all, even Ray Allen, who faced Link yesterday, admitted his excellence.

But Link was as uninterested in these things, whether it was slander or praise, it was temporary.

As he brushed, Link came up with a few news about today's game.

"Since the Grizzlies lost to the Trail Blazers on the 24th last month, they have been keeping the pace of losing one game and winning one game. In the past half month, there has been no exception! The Grizzlies have not lost a row, but they have not won a row. This is not accidental. That is because the Grizzlies usually can only play one tough battle. After one game, their condition will become very bad. So I think that in San Antonio tonight, the Grizzlies still cannot win. They fought with the Celtics until the end yesterday. After running around overnight, they have not had enough sleep and are about to compete with the Spurs who are not easy to mess with. To be honest, the chances of the Grizzlies winning are too small!"

This report was quickly spread and hyped by fans and media into a "curse".

The Grizzlies cannot win in a row, so they just won the Celtics and are definitely unable to defeat the Spurs today. In addition, the Grizzlies have lost to the Spurs twice before. Therefore, many San Antonio fans even left messages online saying, "We have all started to celebrate the victory in advance."

Looking at these nonsensical reports, Link shook his head. He finally understood why Durant had a special account to criticize people online. Sometimes the remarks of online media and fans are really very annoying.

But if you open a small account, you can open a small account, but it will be embarrassing to forget to switch accounts.

But to be honest, it is really difficult to play tonight's game. Link has experienced how strong the Spurs are this season twice.

Parker and Ginobili remained in shape, and Duncan, the old monster, even recovered! The player who is almost 40 years old can still recover in shape, and Link has never seen such a perverted person.

On the basis of the failure of GDP to collapse, the Spurs have also welcomed the rise of players such as Leonard, Danny Green, Split this season.

There are no excessive draft picks, no big deals, but the Spurs can make the team's strength higher, and this is their cleverness.

When he thought of the various tragic situations that might have happened tonight, Link felt crying without tears. He walked out of the room silently and prepared to find a masseur to help him with health care.

This masseur is not that masseur, and this health care is not that.

But as soon as Link went out, he found that Jimmy Butler had just walked out of the room. The two were stunned for a few seconds, but in the end Butler said hello first, "Hello, Lin, how are you resting?"

"Not bad, where are you going?"

"Go to the supermarket to buy something, will you go together?"
