Reverse Growth Superstar - 1289
Embiid and the Grizzlies have been fighting for a long time.
This has also made this Christmas battle, which was originally a mediocre attention, become a lot of attention.
As everyone knows, Embiid has a big mouth and loves to make trouble, which is already the norm.
And Link has always been a master who is not afraid of things. He does not like to mess with people, but he will not easily let off opponents who take the initiative to do things.
Fans believe that these two “dangerous elements” now smell so strong in gunpowder, maybe the Christmas War will really start on that day.
The incident in which Embiid and Downs forced each other to lock up the man was just not long after.
The fans are definitely not looking forward to this game because of this, after all, fighting games, occasionally a little basketball is inevitable.
No, it’s the opposite…
The fans simply wanted to watch a wonderful basketball game, and never expected Link and Embiid to meet each other on the court.
The game was full of gimmicks. Canadian fighting superstar “GSP” George Saint-Pierre said that he would be there that day. After all, this “match” requires a professional referee.
Connor McGregor, one of UFC’s most successful superstars, also posted a ticket for the Christmas game and said: “I look forward to this cross-border battle very much.”
Link looked at the various reports in the news and was really speechless. Why has the direction of this game become more and more strange? Why are the fighting superstars here?
What a serious basketball player I am!
Who do you think of me?
Am I the kind of person who loves to fight? It’s just that I have been fined tens of thousands of dollars for fighting…
Hmm… Compared to Artest, who hit Harden from the number one position to the audience, Ci Shiping, who beat Harden with one elbow, didn’t dare to defend, Link thought he was still pretty good.
No, these two seem to be the same person…deserving of the 21st century league “King of Fighters”.
Link put down the phone. At this time, Rachel had helped Link pack his luggage.
Since the Grizzlies were playing away in Philadelphia this Christmas, it is a pity that Link can’t accompany his wife and children at home.
Memphis and Philadelphia are still quite far apart, and a direct flight takes about three hours.
Therefore, it is definitely too late to fly on the day of the game.
Georgel decided to take the team to Philadelphia in the afternoon, take a good rest, and then energetically play a game with the 76ers the next day.
“Link, Pennsylvania is colder than Tennessee now. I brought you some thick clothes. Remember to change them when you arrive. By the way, don’t have any conflict with that guy. Your daughter can look at you. Do. A good role model, okay?”
Rachel pushed the suitcase in front of Link, and then glanced at the little daughter who was playing not far away.
“Don’t worry, you don’t really think that I will have a cross-border boxing match with Embiid? This Christmas, only you will have it. But it doesn’t matter. After this year, we can be together every Christmas.”
Link smiled, speaking of it, this is the last Christmas battle of his NBA career…
Link no longer remembers when he first fought the Christmas War. He only knew that he had never enjoyed the holiday season in these years.
The Christmas War, this is a special performance of the strong team, a stage for the stars, but Link does not miss it at all.
Thinking that this was the last Christmas battle of his career, Link felt a sense of relief.
“Dad, work hard tomorrow. Here, this is my holiday gift for you!” At this time, Lin Ling also rushed over, holding a small gift box in his hand.
Link was very pleasantly surprised. He really didn’t expect his little daughter to give himself a present.
Link was about to open the gift box, but was stopped by his daughter.
“Tomorrow is Christmas, so dad can’t take it apart until the game starts tomorrow.”
“Okay, Dad will look at it tomorrow.” Link knelt down and touched his daughter’s head, and then took the suitcase and gifts, ready to go out.
Outside the window, there are Christmas trees and decorations in front of every door of every house. The festive atmosphere is very strong.
But Link had to stay away from family in such days.
Although it has been almost 10 years since he came to the United States, Link actually has no interest in the festival itself, so he didn’t care about playing the Christmas war before.
But after having family members, he always hopes to accompany them on this special day, but he has no chance every year.
Fortunately, this is the last time.
“Then, I’m going out.” Link got up, since it’s the last time, let’s do a good job!
※※※
On December 25, Christmas night, the Wachovia Center Arena in Philadelphia was very lively.
In the darkest days of the 76ers, the Wachovia Center Arena was almost one of the most deserted teams in the league.
In any Philadelphia 76ers game, there will definitely be gaps in blockbuster films in the stands.
Even the arrival of superstars cannot save the stadium’s low attendance.
After all, who likes to watch basketball games without suspense?
In the 15-16 season, the 76ers won only 10 of 82 games throughout the year. Think about it in another way, and you know how desperate Philadelphia fans are.
What kind of family to spend this injustice to watch the team lose.
But now it’s different. Although tickets for this year’s Christmas game are expensive, they are still hard to find.
Philadelphia fans have poured into the arena, ready to see the style of the game.
In the front row, there are a bunch of stars from all walks of life.
In addition to the previous two fighting superstars, 76ers legendary guard Alan Iverson will also visit the scene today.
The 76ers and Grizzlies, Embiid and Link, made this game a very good box office.
In an interview with reporters, the unruly AI also bluntly said: “No one will miss this heavyweight matchup. This is likely to be a preview of this year’s finals. I don’t want to make predictions, I just want to enjoy it. ”
Iverson has rarely been out in NBA occasions now, unless this game is destined to be very exciting.
Everyone is waiting for this fierce battle to start, and the atmosphere of the war enveloped the entire city.
But in the visiting team locker room at the Wachovia Center, the Grizzlies players are happier than outsiders think.
“Merry Christmas guys!” Howard, dressed in Christmas clothes and fake beard, screamed and rushed into the locker room, shocking everyone.
He carried a big bag on his back, which contained Christmas gifts for his teammates.
Howard’s performance in the Grizzlies this season is obvious to all. Although he naturally couldn’t play his peak state, he did work hard and became his own blue-collar role.
Therefore, the Grizzlies also converted Howard’s contract into a guarantee system some time ago.
Howard now doesn’t have to worry that he won’t get a penny after being laid off.
With money, Howard naturally has to thank the teammates who trust him.
Therefore, Howard pretended to be Santa Claus and distributed gifts to everyone.
Howard is now the pistachio of the Grizzlies.
In the laughter, the teammates all exchanged gifts.
Link has prepared his last season’s commemorative sneakers for everyone this year. Although these shoes are all sponsored by Nike, Link did not spend a cent.
But considering the value of this pair of sneakers, Link is also full of sincerity.
Finally, Link sat in front of the cabinet and took out a small gift box.
Although this year everyone gave a variety of gifts, including mobile phones, computers, and even cash…
But what Link is most looking forward to is the gift that his daughter gave him yesterday.
He opened it carefully, and found a small wristband and a card in the gift box.
A sentence was written crookedly on the card.
“Be careful, dad, put on this bra, then you won’t hurt your wrist like the fat uncle~”
Well, Uncle Fat, this is what Lin Ling calls Jokic.
Although it is just an ordinary wristband~www.mtlnovel.com~, Link’s heart is very warm.
After working hard for ten years in this pile of men, now occasionally feeling this delicate warmth, Link really has a feeling that his heart is about to melt.
Lin Ke silently put on his arm guard, and instantly felt full of energy all over his body.
He stood up, jumped twice, then clapped his hands.
Suddenly, everyone stopped unpacking the gifts and looked at Link neatly.
“This is my last Christmas battle, guys. I won’t say anything to enjoy it. If you can’t win the game, what can you enjoy? If you want to fight, we must win. If you want to win, you must win. Cool! Come on, don’t let me regret it. By the way, let Embiid know that he shouldn’t provoke us!”
“Roar!”
There was a roar from the entire locker room.
Not only do the Santa Clauses from Memphis do not plan to hand out gifts, they also plan to looting Philadelphia.
