1020: The Last Happy Hour (4th Update)
For two days in a row, there was good news for the Grizzlies.
For Link, he has already taken a small step on the hardest path he has chosen.
Of course, if the signing of Wade and Nash alone is successful, then the championship is too worthless.
But right now, Link doesn't have time to execute his next step.
Because he's getting married.
On July 16, Link and Rachel were married in Memphis.
They chartered a small estate outside Memphis, invited some friends, and the wedding took place in a low-key manner.
Although the wedding went on in a low-key manner, it was not sloppy at all.
The guest lineup alone is a little too strong.
Needless to say, the Grizzlies players were all on the court. Randolph, Carter, Gasol, Conley...... From old to young, no one was absent.
Harrell, Richardson, Jokic and Dinwiddie are four young people, and they even have to help the "boss" Zhang Luo The wedding scene is so lively.
The others Link didn't know, but Jokic must have enjoyed the job. Because today, Link has caught him drinking two bottles of Coke, still the kind in large bottles!
The pile of pork belly on Jokic's stomach really wasn't for nothing.
Butler, Whiteside, Dellavedova, Nick. Young, Battier and other players who have played for the Grizzlies were also on the court.
Although they are no longer teammates, the friendship of teammates is still there.
In addition, Link's friends Kobe, Lillard, Cousins and others also came to Memphis to attend the wedding.
Of course, Wade and Nash, two "newcomers" who have announced their joining the Grizzlies, are also indispensable.
In addition, the managers of Pera, Jogel and Snyder, as well as Link's manager, Jeff. Austin and other older people also came to the scene to send their blessings.
Rachel also invited a lot of friends to come over, including Grant, who once co-hosted the show with him. Hill.
Seeing his idol, who he once admired the most, come to his wedding, Link really felt extremely happy.
In addition to a strong lineup of guests, the equipment of this low-key wedding is also quite luxurious.
Rachel's white wedding dress was worn by the famous British designer, "the hooligan of the fashion industry" Alexander. McQueen designed it himself.
When Princess Kate of the United Kingdom got married, the wedding dress she wore was made by him.
Of course, it will definitely cost a lot to invite such a famous designer to come out.
The wedding dress alone cost Link $390,000, not counting the $1.5 million paid to McQueen.
Link usually doesn't spend too much, and he doesn't advocate extravagance and waste.
But when it comes to getting married, Link is not stingy.
Looking at Rachel's beautiful appearance now, which is no worse than the princess on the call, Link feels that it is worth the money.
Today, she is definitely the most radiant woman in the world.
And when Link put on a wedding ring for Rachel, that ring was dazzling even in the eyes of millions and even billionaires at the scene.
Instead of using last year's championship ring as a wedding ring, Link recreated a sapphire diamond ring made by Argyle Jewelry.
The ring is made up of 28 small diamonds surrounding a huge blue gemstone, and Kobe Bryant even jokingly wore sunglasses because the ring was so brilliant that it was too dazzling to look at.
Of course, with such a shining ring, Link naturally made a lot of money.
The sky-high price of $2.5 million a piece is definitely not cheap even for NBA stars.
In the presence of friends and family, Link puts a ring on Rachel and kisses her.
Finally, the blessings of everyone on the scene were ushered in.
Link was glad that he had finally started a family of his own.
Later, when he was tired of running around for the team, he also had a wife who cared about him at all times.
He was glad that he was able to spend one of the happiest moments of his life in the presence of all his family and friends.
Although Link did not invite reporters, nor did he spread the news of his marriage everywhere.
But in this era of advanced networks, Link's marriage was leaked out the next day.
No way, most of the people who came to the wedding posted photos of Link and Rachel kissing on their social media and offered their blessings.
As soon as it was posted on social media, the whole world knew.
But now Link doesn't mind that everyone knows he's married, and his marriage to Rachel isn't a shameful thing in the first place. The reason why I wanted to keep a low profile before was because I didn't want the wedding to be disturbed.
Now that the wedding is over, reporters love to report it, so let them report it.
As a result, the news of Link's marriage immediately bombarded the entire basketball circle.
"Yesterday Link was undoubtedly the happiest man in the world, even though the season that just ended didn't turn out well for him and the Grizzlies. But he won in another 'arena', bless them! ”
"2K goddesses and league superstars, this is a perfect match, may they be happy forever."
The media coverage was very mild, and the behavior of the fans moved Link even more.
On the afternoon of the second day after the wedding, countless Memphis fans flocked to the plaza outside the Federal Express Arena and spontaneously organized to send their blessings to Link.
In the eyes of Memphis fans, Link's choice to hold his wedding in Memphis is really making the city his home.
As Link's "family", they naturally can't be absent.
It's hard to imagine that Memphis, a city with a crime rate so high that the local government had to call on citizens to exchange guns for free tickets, could have such a loving picture.
And it was just a basketball player who changed all that......
The whole of Memphis is in the beautiful atmosphere of the wedding, and Link deserves to be the king of Memphis.
Even everyone else was so happy, and Link and Rachel were naturally even happier.
The day after the marriage, the two were captured by reporters in the enthusiastic Rio de Janeiro.
It's clear that they can't wait to start their honeymoon.
The two of them had fun and didn't have to think about anything. Link doesn't have to worry about getting in shape or training the next day, and he can enjoy the Brazilian sun with Rachel.
Even if they are occasionally photographed by one or two reporters, they don't care, and they will still kiss in public without concealment.
Rachel's social media photos are also updated every day, all of which are photos with Link.
Rio is already a welcoming city, and it's perfect for a welcoming newlyweds to come here for their honeymoon.
The only regret is that the good times spent with Rachel in the world of the two of them passed quickly.
Link and Rachel's honeymoon is said to be a honeymoon, but it's only two weeks.
In the blink of an eye, it's August, and as a player whose only goal is to win the title next season, Link doesn't have that much time to enjoy himself in Brazil.
Link is very sorry for this. Unfortunately, he couldn't stay with his wife all the time, and he couldn't even live his honeymoon completely.
At the beginning of August, the Link's training camp, which is very popular in NBA circles, officially opened.
It's just that this year, Link didn't accept too many requests to join the camp.
Because this year, Link Camp is by invitation. Only those who have been invited by Link are eligible to participate.
Link's behavior naturally annoyed many people.
Link, however, didn't bother to care about the voices.
Because his 16-17 season, from the day he entered training camp, it had already begun.
The last happy hour of the summer has come to an end.
