"hiss"

Link slowly opened his eyes, feeling his head heavy and his mouth extremely dry.

He stood up and looked at the time on his phone. It was only 7:30, which was not too late. Then, Link got up and took a glass of water and drank it with a mouthful of cold water, which made his mind a little clearer.

After signing the contract yesterday, Randolph took Link and Tony Allen and Xiao Kangli to a nightclub for a party and celebrated Link.

Although Link refused at the beginning, as soon as he entered the nightclub, he was inspired by the atmosphere, Link couldn't help but shout in his heart, "It smells so good!"

However, because we knew there was still a game today, everyone didn't drink alcohol yesterday. They used juice instead of alcohol throughout the whole process. A group of rich NBA players gathered together to drink juice in a place with commotion hormones. This scene is indeed weird.

Despite this, Link and his group were still enthusiastically sought after.

Before leaving, two blondes wearing sex ganja were tangled with Link. As a young man with a full of energy, Link was really a little confused under the influence of the lively atmosphere.

But when he thought that there was still a game today, Link calmed down.

When he recalled this, Link immediately searched his house from inside to outside. He only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that no woman had been home with him.

Speaking of which, not everyone is as determined as Link. When he was a fan, Link always felt that the NBA player who was useless was really stupid. He obviously had a bright future, but he gave up on himself.

But after experiencing it yesterday, Link realized how exciting and satisfying the bright lights and wine can bring to people.

In nightclubs, as NBA stars, they are attracting much attention, and all kinds of men and women come to deal with them. This great satisfaction in vanity is enough to make a group of players with insufficient willpower linger in the nightclubs.

Link knew that he could not get caught in because he was carrying more than his destiny and dreams. If he fell, Upshaw and his parents would definitely be disappointed with him.

It's okay to relax occasionally, but Link won't joke about his future.

But to be honest, the figures of the two blonde girls yesterday were really unique!

As expected, just like Chris Wallace predicted, Link had just signed a guaranteed contract with the Grizzlies, and he immediately became the darling of the media the next day.

In the newspaper, there are endless news about Link signing the formal contract with the Grizzlies. In Chinese newspapers, this news even occupied a whole page.

Although Link is just a Chinese American, now that the NBA is extremely lacking in Chinese elements. Link, a guy with yellow skin, dark hair and speaking Mandarin in a terrible way, has naturally been widely publicized by the Chinese media.

In addition, Link is the first undraft to officially sign with the NBA team this year. This identity has made Link more discussable.

In short, his commercial value has begun to emerge. This player who has a very special skin color and identity, and can defend Kobe, must be the protagonist of the media and fans' discussions in recent days.

But, after the big tree attracts wind, Link signed a guaranteed contract with the Grizzlies, many people questioned this.

"There are many examples of signing guarantee contracts with NBA teams in the undraft, but most of them end up being the most popular. Do the Grizzlies want to make it to the playoffs with $2 million reinforcement? They think the playoffs too simply."

"Link did show some potential, but his shortcomings are also very obvious. When people start studying him, that is, when his magical aura fades."

"2 million a year? I am frank, the Grizzlies are really stupid and have a lot of money. This year, Xavier Henry, who was selected by the 12th pick, has an annual salary of only 2.02 million. In other words, as a undraft, Link's salary is similar to the lottery pick. And don't forget that Link's salary is only half a season's salary. I don't know if Chris Wallace's hand trembled when writing a check."

Link never expected that in these news, there were people who complained about their high salary. They only had a contract of $2 million, but some people even thought it was high?

But then I thought about it, this was only 2010, and the new round of labor-capital agreements had not been negotiated. In this era, the salary cap was far from exploding like before Link crossed.

In the era before Link traveled, even Mozgov could sign a large contract of tens of millions, and a player like Ryan Anderson could get nearly 20 million in a year. Tens of millions of contracts were not uncommon in that era, and even a contract of tens of millions of dollars was not a small number.

So from Link's perspective, it's already very little that he has earned 2 million. However, the media nowadays think that's not the case.

Willis Matthews, who also entered the NBA as a undraft last season, had a salary of only 460,000. A college star like Luke Babbitt, the 16th rookie this year, had a salary of only 1.65 million. Link's Tony, a player who has won the championship and can defend superstars, has only an annual salary of $3 million this year.

From this point of view, it is not uncommon for some people to complain about their high salary.

There are many criticisms, and everyone has their own reasons. However, among them, the most popular complaints come from the potential new star James Harden.

Yesterday, a reporter interviewed Harden, "Tomorrow's game against the Grizzlies, in the second team, you and Link's sixth man, who do you think will win?"

Facing the camera, the young Harden answered without thinking, "No one can stop us from moving forward."

Harden's answer did not mention Link, which shows how proud this guy is and how despised Link.

As the 2009 Tanhua Show, James Harden has become an indispensable force for the Thunder this year. He has averaged 12.2 points per game and has begun to show his talent.

This season, he is considered one of the sixth best in the league. In other words, he is also the number one person who can be named.

Such a Harden is naturally full of confidence in the face of the draft.

With Harden's words, the media began to hype wildly, fearing that the two of them would not have any deep hatred. So a duel between the Sixth Man vs. the Sixth Man was hyped up by the media.

Link was really speechless. The criticism about him never stopped from the beginning. It seemed like it was so difficult to let this group of people accept a yellow skin and a player who came up from the bottom could gain a foothold in the NBA.

As Chris Wallace said, he just signed a $2 million contract and was about to be put under a magnifying glass to study.

Link was very glad that he didn't take the two blonde women home last night, otherwise, God would know if his condition would be affected today.

Since you are going to study me with a magnifying glass, just do it. As long as I do every detail, you will have nothing to say even with a magnifying glass.

When running tactics in the afternoon, Hollins found that Link played very cautiously today. Unless there was a great opportunity, he would not take action easily. Hollins hoped that Link could keep this focus on the court, and he believed that Link would make the team's 2 million worth of money.

Before the game started in the evening, Link was also sought after by many reporters on the sidelines.

However, their questions are similar, just asking what it feels like to be a formal player and how do you view James Harden's remarks.

Link answered the reporters perfunctorily, he just wanted to focus on the game for the time being. Although Link was determined to let the media waiting to see his jokes go home empty-handed, the Oklahoma City Thunder is indeed not a team that is easy to deal with.

Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, Jeff Green, Serge Ibaka, and James Harden, the Thunder's lineup can be described as luxurious. Their only disadvantage is that they are too young.

So far this season, the Thunder's record of 23 wins and 12 losses is enough to show how strong their strength is. The Grizzlies have only 17 wins and 17 losses due to their recent five consecutive wins.

How easy is it to defeat the Thunder?

"Man, you are paying attention today." While warming up, Zach Landoff approached Link with a stingy look on his face, "Did you have a good time last night?"

"I went home alone yesterday." Link knew what Randolph said, "I'm having fun" and hurriedly left it clear.

"What!? You actually went home alone yesterday with those two girls!?"

"Yes, don't you have to play the game today." Link gave Randolph a glance. God knew that this guy was in Portland and New York when he was young, and he had been at home alone for a few nights.

"Okay, actually, it should be fine as young as you."

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about that. How do you feel today? The Thunder came for victory. They are young and energetic, and don't want to give us a chance." Link waved his hand and shifted the topic from last night to the game.

"Well, I feel very good. That kid Rudy is in good shape today. Where are you?"

"I'm fine, I'm eager to fight. By the way, I heard"

"What did you hear?" Randolph leaned down and put his ears to Link's ear.
