"In Link's training camp, we have the highest level of confrontation. When others are still recovering, we are already playing real games. So the preseason is not difficult for me at all." Demar DeRozan praised the benefits of participating in Link's training camp in an interview.

"That's a place where everyone can improve together. If there is still a chance next summer, I will choose to continue training at Link's training camp." Kings defender Isaiah Thomas smiled.

"Link is an extremely self-disciplined and extremely strong person. In the atmosphere he drives, no one wants to be lazy. Link has a natural leadership, which may be the reason why they won the championship last season." Paul George strongly supported his friend. He believes that his performance like a superstar during the preseason is closely related to summer training.

Link became popular all over the United States before he even played the game. It is difficult for you to hear a star who can get the praise of so many peers.

Even Wade, who lost to Link last season, used the praises to Link without hesitation. "He is an excellent player and a great opponent. I have benefited a lot from his training camp. I believe my condition will improve greatly this season."

It is not easy to get the recognition of your opponent. What's more, it's the opponent in the finals.

Now, the Chinese match between the Grizzlies and the Kings has become more and more popular.

People want to see how good Link, who is the leader of the training camp, is in his condition.

So in mid-October in Yanjing, in Wukesong Stadium, Link felt the enthusiasm of Chinese fans.

"Of course I love this place, I always regard it as my hometown."

"Play for the Chinese team? If the Basketball Association invites me, I will definitely not refuse."

"I am very grateful for the support of Chinese fans. I feel very proud to be able to succeed in the NBA as a Chinese."

When facing Chinese journalists, Link's fluent Chinese made him crazy about attracting fans.

In the eyes of most fans, Link is no different from ordinary Chinese players. Some Chinese locals may not be as good as Link.

At this year's Asian Championships, the Chinese team was eliminated by Chinese Taipei. This is undoubtedly the darkest night in Chinese basketball history.

Now seeing Link, fans couldn't help but think that if there were Link this year, the results might not be so bad.

But unfortunately, joining Chinese nationality is perhaps one of the most difficult things in the world, and it is not something that fans or Link can join if they want to.

There was no way, the fans could only transfer their enthusiasm for basketball to Link.

In this game, because Cousins, Thomas Jr. and other core members of the Kings have a good relationship with Link, the game process is also very friendly.

Link played for 23 minutes under the attention of everyone, but facing the mediocre John Selmons, Link scored 20 points in 23 minutes! He gave a wonderful performance to the Chinese fans who supported him.

Link was in a surprising state. He seemed to have no need to adjust at all, and he could immediately enter attack mode as soon as he got on the court.

His breakthrough was very fast. Without pick-and-roll, he often had only one step to break through Selmons.

His bounce height seemed to be more scary than before, and he grabbed offensive rebounds on Cousins' head several times in this game.

His shooting was as steady as ever. Whenever there was a gap, Cousins ​​would be ready to go directly to the basket to pick up the ball.

In just 23 minutes, Link hit Selmons with a psychological shadow. Link's outstanding condition is obvious to all. After watching this game, people couldn't help but feel worried about Leonard.

The opening match is a big challenge for Leonard.

The game went smoothly, but it wasn't completely without episodes. In the last three minutes of the fourth quarter, the originally friendly atmosphere was broken by Delavidova and Thomas Jr.

During one defense, Delavidova fell to the ground to save the ball, pressing her entire body against Thomas's legs without any hesitation.

The two had an argument after fierce competition on the ground. Dravidowaben was a rookie, so Thomas Jr. naturally did not allow a rookie to ride on his head. In the end, it was only for Link's sake that the conflict between the two sides subsided.

Although everyone was still kind in the end, the Grizzlies also won the game. But in Link's mind, this matter has not yet passed.

※※※

Today's Chinese game ended perfectly. The Grizzlies won the game and Link also performed well enough.

People are very interested in knowing what Link became after a summer. Today, everyone got what they wanted.

After returning to the locker room, everyone was talking and laughing. Only Link seemed to be very serious.

Link sat in front of his cabinet, took off his jersey, and looked up at the Australian who looked like a groundhog.

Passionate, hard work, carefree and brave, how can the little people survive in the NBA? Delavidova gave everyone the answer.

But Delavidova is not without its shortcomings, such as his overly dirty moves.

Just now, Delavidova pressed on Thomas's legs without reservation. The reason why Thomas was so angry was because everyone knew that Delavidova did it on purpose.

Do you have to be dirty if you defend well? The Grizzlies are the most likely example of this point of view.

Tony Allen is famous for his good defense but clean defense. Although Link is always sarcastic, he rarely makes unnecessary moves to the opponent. Marc Gasol is the best defensive player last season, but he is definitely not an inside villain like Ranbill.

Whether the defense is good or not and whether the ball is clean is completely different. Indeed, Link sometimes pulls the opponent's jersey and even waves his iron elbow. He is not a saint.

But Link will definitely not touch such things as intentional injury, that is the bottom line. Sometimes, intentional injury to the opponent's players may indeed bring an advantage to the team. But Link would rather not have such an advantage.

The charm and honor of competitive sports are not won by dirty hurtful actions. Link does not allow himself to do this, nor does he allow his team to have such people.

"Dra." Link sat for a while and shouted Delavidova's name.

Delavidova was born in 1990. Because she had been in college for four years, she was actually not young, and she was a few years younger than Link.

But as a rookie who was not selected, the fourth-year-old Link is definitely a senior of Delavidova. What's more, Link is still the star of his family, so Delavidova is still very respectful to Link.

"Is there anything wrong? Link." Delavidova responded with a smile.

"Go and buy me a pink schoolbag and come back."

As soon as Link said this, the entire locker room suddenly became quiet.

It is common for rookie players to be called in or teased during rookie seasons. Link was stuffed with popcorn in the car back then, but now Chris Paul, who is very prestigious, had to carry bags for the big guys back then.

It is normal to tease the newcomer, but Link's request for Delavidova is indeed a bit weird, and his tone seems to be a bit too serious.

"Ah? Pink schoolbag?" Delavidova was a little overwhelmed.

"Yes, I bought the pink schoolbag for you. In the future, if you have another intentional injury in the game, you will put the pink schoolbag on me and you will not take it off until the end of the next game. Compared to injury, the price you pay is simply insignificant."

Link stared at Delavidova and pointed out his intentional injury without hesitation. As the team leader, Link could not turn a blind eye to such things. He didn't care what Delavidova looked like in the original history. But now, Link at least had the opportunity to change all this.

No one spoke to the Grizzlies. If someone spoke to Delavidova now, it would be like standing opposite Link. So, no one said anything.

Delavidova looked at the team's "good guy" Iguodala pitifully, but found that Iguodala was just shaking her head.

"Now, go ahead and don't let everyone wait for you too long." Link waved his hand, and Delavidova had to walk out of the locker room obediently.

An hour and a half later, at the entrance of Wukesong Stadium, the media photographed Delavidova boarding the team bus with a pink schoolbag.

Once this photo was leaked, it was naturally ridiculous. Delavidaza became popular, but this was definitely not the way he wanted to become popular.

Two days later, the Grizzlies flew back to Memphis, and pre-season training camp continued.

At the end of today's training, Link made a request to fight Delavidova alone.
Chapter completed!
