The Grizzlies players have finally wrapped up their heroic battle in Oakland.

Next, it's time for them to go home.

Early the next morning after Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals, everyone fell asleep exhausted on the plane back to Memphis.

Only Link was still staring out the window with his eyes open.

It's not that the clouds are particularly beautiful today, it's just that he can't sleep because of the pain.

Unable to sleep, Link could only keep thinking about things.

Speaking of which, the Grizzlies will have a good chance of eliminating the Warriors with a 4-1 overall score. If he could do it, Link would be surprised.

The Warriors have been menacing this season, they are the first team in so many years to threaten the Grizzlies' No. 1 position in the West, and Link is ready to fight the Warriors to a tiebreaker in the playoffs.

But if you think about it, if you really defeat the Warriors with a total score of 4-1, it is actually reasonable.

This team of warriors is still a little different from the one in the original history, and the biggest difference is their "thigh" Andre. Iguodala is now on the Grizzlies' side.

Although Iguodala had a tepid regular season, he repeatedly saved the Warriors in the playoffs, especially in critical moments. Everyone knows that Iguodala's role cannot be measured by statistics, and that he is an integral part of the Warriors' championship win.

But now, the warrior's Dinghaishen needle is gone. Therefore, when encountering a situation that the "Splash Brothers" can't handle, the warriors are black-eyed.

Aside from Iguodala, the Warriors' luck wasn't as good as it was in the original history.

Link still remembers that when the Warriors were in the playoffs, it was as lucky as stepping on shit. From the first round to the Grand Final, all of the opponents they faced faced were facing serious injury problems.

Especially in the finals, the Cavaliers Big Three directly lost two children, forcing James to play in the style of the 1.0 period.

In this case, it is difficult for the Warriors to win.

If all the opponents the Warriors faced that year had stayed healthy, God knows if they would have been able to make a splash.

But at least for now, the Warriors are not so lucky. They had a chance to defeat the Grizzlies who lost Link, but unfortunately, Kerr couldn't calculate it, and Link would actually play with an injury.

And, he performed so well when he was injured.

Link's persistence ended the Warriors' good fortune.

The two major factors that helped the Warriors survive the playoffs are now gone. It's no surprise that the Grizzlies can beat the Warriors 4-1.

Thinking of this, Link was extremely relieved. All the pain he endured was worth it.

But defeating the Warriors is just the beginning, and the Grizzlies still have the most important step to go before they win the championship.

In today's history, the Knights Big Three have not been attacked by injuries......

No step on the road to a three-in-a-row title is easy.

As soon as the Grizzlies players got off the plane, they saw a group of enthusiastic fans who came to pick them up.

The entire airport lobby was almost full, and as soon as the Grizzlies players appeared, the scene immediately burst into deafening cheers.

"Damn, this formation is as good as when we brought back the O'Brien Cup last year." Tony. Aaron looked around and looked at the eyes of the fans with admiration and love.

The shouts and cheers of the fans were so intimate that they even shouted the slogan "Welcome home the heroes".

It's still Tony. For the first time, Aaron experienced what it's like to be a hero so deeply.

Grizzlies fans were certainly excited, and at both of Oakland's home games, the Grizzlies could have escaped from the crocodile's mouth.

You know, before the Grizzlies went to Oakland, they just lost to the Warriors. The Warriors' death was five small, sending Memphis into a panic.

At the time, many people were afraid that when the Grizzlies returned, the score would become 3-1.

Now, the score is indeed 3-1. It's just that it was the defending champion who got the match point.

In both games in Oakland, the Grizzlies played hard. In the first game, the Grizzlies contained the Death Five with the Death Five, but there was an accident at the final moment, and it was not until the lore that the winner was decided.

In the second game, Link played with an injury, and although the Grizzlies led the Warriors a lot in the end, the process was very worrying for Grizzlies fans.

In both games, the Grizzlies resisted stubbornly in the face of absolute disadvantage, and finally got two hard-won victories.

There is no doubt that what they did in Oakland earned the respect of all of Memphis.

They know that the glory of this city is guarded by this group of players with blood and sweat.

Link smiled and waved and high-fived the fans, looking not at all like an injured man.

But as soon as he got on the team bus, Link's hideous expression returned to his face.

Joggle shook his head, Link, always leave his best and strongest side to the fans, and the strongest side to the team.

So who can he leave his fragile side to?

※※※

The team bus took the Grizzlies players to the Federal Express Arena, where they were disbanded and then went home.

However, the next day, training returned to normal and the journey to the Western Conference Finals would continue.

This afternoon was the only afternoon the Grizzlies players could catch their breath.

Joggle noticed that Link seemed to be a little impatient, and ran away as soon as he disbanded.

It's the first time that Link has been so active in the matter of "going home from work".

There's a reason why Link wants to go home so much, because today, someone is waiting for him at home.

Link's car had just driven to the door when someone walked out of Link's house.

There is only one person in this world besides Link who has the key to this house - Rachel. Demita.

As soon as Link got out of the car, Rachel couldn't wait to hug him.

"Hurt, hurt......" Link grinned and scratched his head in embarrassment as Rachel had to let go.

It's a pity that I can't even hug my lover I haven't seen for a long time......

"Why don't you hurt when you're on the pitch? Bastard! I've said it all, if you can't hold on, don't play, you still have a future. Rachel gritted her teeth and gently stroked Link's injured part.

Although I tried to pretend to be angry, Rachel failed in the end.

After learning that Link was injured after breaking a bone, Rachel has been on the lookout. The game that just ended was full of excitement from the fans, applauding Link's outstanding and efficient performance and amazing perseverance.

And what about Rachel? She didn't think it was a good game at all. It can even be said that it was the most heart-wrenching and uncomfortable game she has ever seen.

Every time Link collided with someone else on the court, every time the camera gave him a grinning and painful expression, every time Link fell hard, Rachel's heart hurt as if someone had slammed it.

Throughout the game, Rachel was so scared that she even cried several times.

So as soon as the game was over, Rachel immediately ran to Memphis. She desperately wanted to see the scarred man, to see if he was all right.

"I'm fine, really. Sorry to worry you. Link didn't know what to say, so he could only wrap his arms around Rachel with the uninjured side, and kiss her lightly on the forehead.

"Come inside, I've made lunch, and I'll eat it when it's hot." Wait, don't move, I'll help you in. Are you tired? If you're tired, tell the team and ask them not to train you too hard tomorrow. By the way, do you want to take a shower after eating? It is possible to relax the body. Don't go out tonight, rest at home, I'll accompany you to watch the fourth game of the Eastern Conference Finals between the Cavaliers and the Hawks......"

Rachel chattered as she helped Link into the house. Suddenly, Rachel noticed that the man next to her was not moving.

She turned her head in surprise to find Link smiling.

"What's wrong? You were killed by Draymond. Did Green hit the silly? ”

"No, I just want to see how you look back, it's so good-looking."

"Cut, don't think I'll forgive you just by saying a nice word. You've made me worry so much, I'll never forgive you for the rest of my life, Link. ”

The two slowly walked into the house, and as soon as they entered, Link could smell the aroma of fried steak.

At that moment, Link felt empowered, enveloped in a strong sense of well-being.

Yes, everyone only cares about whether you win or not, only she cares about whether you are tired or not, whether it hurts......

Who is Link's vulnerable side left for? Of course, it's just her.

Although he was still injured, Link had a stronger desire to win than before.

In addition to the three consecutive championships, Link now has one more reason to have to win.

This summer's engagement ring, you can't mess it up.
