On the 14th, once the results of the first round of All-Star votes were announced, the city of Memphis underwent drastic changes!

At first, people only expected Link to be within the range. But unexpectedly, Link’s ranking was so high! The total number of votes was actually ranked among the top three among all players!

Kevin Durant, Cameron Anthony, Chris Paul, Kevin Garnett and other well-known superstars all have votes below Link!

There is no way, Link's performance since the beginning of the new season is indeed too eye-catching. The Grizzlies currently have a record of only 2 losses in 17 wins and only have a record of 2 losses in the whole league. Even the defending champion Miami Heat have a record of only 14 wins and 5 losses.

Link's data is not inferior to the top superstars, and he deserves his third place in the vote. What's more, Link has frequently performed impressively this season.

Destroy Harden and the Rockets 43 points in a single game, revenge the Thunder and Durant 34 points in a single game, 32 points + 8 assists and 8 rebounds in a single game, turning over in front of Kobe, and killing the Lakers. More than a week ago, the record was in Josh Smith's head, which shocked the world and the ghosts and the gods.

Under various factors, it is not surprising that Link can get so many votes.

As soon as the results of the 14th vote were announced, reporters found that many citizens gathered outside the local Bloomfield Church in Memphis! After investigation, they found that these people were willing to hand over their weapons!

The policy of "those who voluntarily hand over weapons can get two free tickets" has been implemented in Memphis tepid.

If the Grizzlies fans hand over the guns they hold to the local Bronfield Church, each will receive two tickets to the Grizzlies' home game.

But today, Link's votes ranked third, seemed to greatly stimulate the determination of the citizens of Memphis.

When the government saw the citizens who surrendered their guns, they would probably wake up from their dreams. Now, the high crime rate will definitely decline. The charm of basketball is fully reflected in Memphis.

People would rather give up their weapons than go to the Federal Express Arena to watch Link play a game.

At the beginning, the local Memphis government would definitely not have imagined that the one who changed the fate of this city would be a Chinese!

During the interview with reporters, the citizens of Memphis who were queuing up to hand over their guns all expressed their love for Link.

"He's Jordan from Memphis, man! If it were you, would you miss Jordan's game??" A gangster-like old man raised his weapon, "I don't need it anymore, Memphis has enough Link!"

“Memphis has never had a superstar of this level. My son and I are fans of the Memphis Grizzlies, but we haven’t seen the ball in the spot once. My son said to me, ‘Hey, dad, why not exchange your revolver for two tickets?’ So I came.”

"Why not? Take my three guns and give me six tickets! Every night, I have to go to the scene to cheer for Link!"

The activity of collectively handing over guns by Memphis citizens continued from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.! All handing over guns were collectively destroyed on the basis that there was no problem. The gun management department of the Memphis Police Department also sent special personnel to supervise and guide the Memphis Police Department.

The Memphis mayor even came to the scene to thank Link and the Grizzlies for their contribution to the city.

At that time, the mayor of Memphis announced, "This year's Memphis Good Citizen Award must belong to Link!"

Link looked at the news on his mobile phone and felt incredible. There are many players who can influence a team, but there are only a few players who can influence a city.

In the afternoon, many reporters walked into the training hall to interview the Grizzlies players. After Link ranked third in votes and Memphis collectively surrendered guns, the entire Grizzlies were in a cheerful and relaxed atmosphere.

But few people remember that tonight, the Grizzlies have to play a game with the Denver Nuggets.

In a happy atmosphere, danger is slowly approaching.

"I know, the Grizzlies may be busy having a party now. Citizens collectively handed over guns to come to watch Link play. Oh my God, it's so touching. Tonight, our goal is very simple. That's to kill the Grizzlies under the noses of all Memphis people!"

George Carl sat in the visiting team locker room at the Federal Express Arena, his voice was loud.

Last season, the Nuggets were swept out by the Grizzlies in the first round of the playoffs. That round of playoffs also led to Avraro's complete break with George Carl.

So, Avraro really left this summer. Old Carl no longer remembers how many times this was the time the player left the team because of a disagreement with him.

But this stubborn old man didn't care. He was dismissed by cowards like Anthony and Avlaro who escaped with their tails. They couldn't stand the Nuggets' rough play, so naturally someone could bear it!

This year, the Nuggets' players seem to like this style of play. Otherwise, the Nuggets would not be ranked fourth in the West just behind the Grizzlies, Thunder and Spurs!

Moreover, in the only two games the Grizzlies lost this season, one of them was lost to the Nuggets! George Carl thought he had found a way to curb the Grizzlies. And since he could beat them once, he would definitely be able to do the second time!

"The Memphis Grizzlies are the hottest team in the league at present, but if you can win tonight, believe me, the eyes of the whole world will be on you! Someone may ask, can we win the Grizzlies? Nonsense, because we have won them once this season! Remember what I said, be tough on both ends of the offense and defense, and keep pace as fast as possible. Then, let's take the victory to the Grizzlies guys to beat the middle finger!"

George Carl waved his hand and let the players appear and warm up. During the Memphis full name carnival, George Carl, the "destructor", didn't mind giving the Grizzlies some surprises.

Because of the large-scale spontaneous surrender of guns by fans during the day, Memphis Mayor A.C. Walton visited the Federal Express Arena tonight. Before the opening, he hugged and shook hands with Link enthusiastically.

It seemed that this was a wonderful day in Memphis. But at this time, a.c. Walton had a dark face and did not say a word. In the stands, countless Memphis fans also covered their heads with their hands in annoyance, unable to believe the score in front of them.

"There are only 12 seconds left before the end of the first half. The Memphis Grizzlies are currently 12 points behind the Denver Nuggets! Let's see if the Grizzlies can stabilize the gap and enter the second half duel." Hubby Brown was very nervous. If the Grizzlies lose today, it would be too destructive.

But the Nuggets performed well today, and they showed great qualities on both offense and defense. In the first half, the Grizzlies' shooting percentage was terrible.

Conley made 2 of 7, Randolph made 2 of 7, Gasol made 1 of 6, and Nick Young made 0 of 4!

The Nuggets' extremely fast pace and perfect defense swaps have prevented the Grizzlies from finding their state. If it weren't for Link's support, the score difference would have been more than 12 points!

In the last moment, the Nuggets continued to play fast-paced offense. After a run and transmission, the basketball was finally sent by Ty Lawson to Italian forward Gallinari.

Gallinari averaged a career-high 16.2 points per game this season, and his three-point shooting percentage was as high as 37.3%. He would never waste such opportunities to take open positions.

The Nuggets' conduction and running are too fast and there is no offensive focus at all. Therefore, it is difficult for the Grizzlies to catch everyone.

In this way, Gallinari, who was vacant, made a three-pointer. At the end of the first half, the gap further widened to 15 points!

"Hahaha, surprise, you guys are raised!" George Carl cursed smugly off the court. Today, he was going to give the Grizzlies a third defeat this season on this inappropriate day!

Link did not speak or accepted an interview with a reporter, but walked into the player channel with a serious expression.
Chapter completed!
