Mike. It was the first time Brin had seen Link so close.

Even if he is wearing a suit today, greeting everyone kindly with a smile.

But Mike. Brin still felt that Link was full of kingly energy.

He was incredibly confident and didn't get nervous about his first attempt at commenting on the game.

He is not flustered, and he is extremely calm in the face of anyone.

How so?

Link may be the kind of man who can exude his charm on any occasion.

Even if he doesn't deliberately do anything, he will become the focus of the audience.

"Hello, Mike, it's an honor to work with you on the game." Link & Mike. Brin shook hands politely.

"I'm honored too, Link. But I have to warn you not to use foul language during the game. ”

"Hahahaha, don't worry, Mike. I'm not going to explode but in Draymond, Brazil. Green could have expletive. Link waved his hand and made a joke.

"Did you really think Serbia had a chance yesterday, or did you say that casually?" Before the start of the game, Mike. Brin asked Link earnestly.

"Mike, I know I often speak unexpectedly. But you have to believe me, I never talk casually. You should know this better than anyone else. No matter how perverse what I say may seem at the time, it will eventually become a reality. ”

Link stares confidently at Mike. Bryn, this got Mike. Brin is looking forward to this game even more.

That's right, Link never took his word for it. So today, Serbia might have been able to put in a magical enough performance.

Subsequently, he and Mike. Brin officially began the commentary of the game in the studio.

As soon as the game began, ESPN's ratings skyrocketed.

The Serbian vs. Dream Team match may not be interesting, but everyone is confident that Link's commentary will never be boring.

"Link, some people say that your previous remarks were just grandstanding, just creating heat, what do you think of people's interpretation of you?"

"I'm Link, do I still need to make it for my heat? When I got married, I didn't notify any media, but the popularity about me didn't drop at all. This is complete nonsense, and I think they want to use me to create heat. ”

As soon as the first question was asked, Link's outspoken style thrilled the fans.

They're ready to hear how Green will spray Green later in the game.

Meanwhile in Brazil, Serbia and Dream Team players have already warmed up.

Link's mouth opened wide in surprise when he saw Jokic on the studio's computer screen.

He'd never seen Jokic so skinny!

The thick fat on the guy was gone, replaced by well-defined muscle lines.

It seems that Jokic has been training with the national team very hard recently, not lazy or stealing, and everything is strictly according to the plan.

Of course, few people care about Jokic's size. Almost all the live footage was given to the Dream Team, to Durant, George, Irving and others.

There's no doubt that the Dream Team is still going strong this year.

Pull out one of them at random, and they are all characters with heads and faces. The former Grizzlies veteran and now the core of the Chicago Bulls, Jimmy Brown. Butler can only play as a substitute in the Dream Team.

This unbelievably strong lineup is the source of the Dream Team's confidence.

The game started very quickly, and as Jokic was the youngest player in the Serbian team, he was not given a chance to start.

Serbia is not weak, so it is not necessary for players who have played in the NBA to start.

The current starting center of the Serbian team is Miroslav. Radulica, who has also survived in the NBA and has more experience in major tournaments than Jokic.

Two years ago, as the main center of the Serbian team, he also won the runner-up in the Basketball World Cup with the team.

Therefore, he naturally sat firmly in the team's starting center forward position.

This is why Link emphasized on the show that Jokic can perform well when he has "plenty of playing time".

Once the game started, the Dream Team started with an 8-0 win over Serbia and then easily built a double-digit lead.

It seems that Serbia is helpless against the Dream Team.

The live camera swept the stands, and many American fans in the stands were already playing with their phones.

At this time, I don't know how many people are laughing at Link, waiting to see how Link will end.

Even Mike. Brin sweated for Link, so he turned his head to look at Link.

But in the studio, Link was very relaxed and not in a hurry at all.

"Link, how do you think Serbia should adjust its strategy at the moment? They had been pressed to the ground and rubbed. ”

'There's no need to adjust, they just haven't brought on the best players yet. That's right, I'm talking about Jokic! Link looked at the computer screen and looked at the head coach of the Serbian team.

Finally, in the last three minutes of the first quarter, when Serbia was already trailing by 13 points, Nikola. Jokic took off his training clothes, he's going to play!

At the same time, the "old K" coach of the Dream Team replaced Green and changed to a small lineup, hoping that the team would speed up and win directly in one wave, turning the next three quarters into garbage time.

Green and Jokic are officially opposed, which whets the appetite of fans!

"The big game is coming, Green has said he's going to take good care of Jokic, do you think Jokic can withstand the pressure?" Mike. Brin continued to help Link find a topic.

"Pressure? Non-existent, Grizzlies players are the best at playing Green. Link replied softly, with an expectant look.

Jokic came on the court, he frowned, and he didn't have the childishness of the past.

Serbia came back from a timeout for the first time, and Green stayed next to Jokic, not intending to give the white boy any chance.

In the Western Conference Finals last season, he made Jokic play quite uncomfortable.

Jokic covered Serbian point guard "King of Europe" Teodosic before quickly cutting into the low post.

Teodosic hit the ground through the gap and sent the ball to Jokic.

Jokic received a basketball on the side of the three-second zone, and Green immediately grabbed Jokic's waist.

However, Jokic didn't dig in hard, and he didn't go singles with his back.

After receiving the basketball, he raised his hand lightly past Green and pushed the ball to the basket, without even jumping much.

This action is quite amateurish, not like it was done by a professional player, but more like an old man who was exercising on the field field.

Everyone is ready to laugh, just this fat man? Causing trouble for the Dream Team?

As a result, the basketball was stunned and went directly into the net. As soon as Jokic came on the court, he scored two points for Serbia!

"This ......" Mike. Brin wanted to shout "beautiful goal", but it was really not a beautiful goal at all......

It feels like Jokic just stood in place and threw the ball in casually, lazy and lazy, without the vitality of a young player at all. It's not so much about strength as it's about luck.

"What am I talking about? Grizzlies players will not be soft in the face of Green! This is just the beginning, and behold! Link was very excited, because he knew very well that Jokic kid was like that!

He is always lazy and lazy in his movements, and his style of play is not aggressive.

But who says you have to be aggressive to be a good player?

Anthony glanced at Green, who only shrugged his shoulders, both of them a little speechless at the limp goal.

Subsequently, the Dream Team attacked. Irving was caught just after halftime, so he gave the ball to Anthony.

Anthony broke through with the ball and found that there was another pinch, so he passed the ball to Green in the low post.

Green received the ball and went straight to the basket, where he tried to push Jokic away and go to the basket.

So, without reservation, he hit it directly.

Undeterred, Jokic waited under the basket with his arms raised.

"Bang!"

The two collided together, but Green didn't get half a step forward and was bounced back!

"This!?" Green was very surprised, he remembered that when he played in the Western Conference Finals in May, Jokic was not so hard!

Without much thought, Green went straight to the basket.

But no sooner had he thrown the ball than he found a thick arm between the basketball and the basket.

"Smack!"

Jokic lightly flew the racket out, unlike other big centers who pulled out the blocks, Jokic's blocks still didn't have any domineering at all, and it felt like a light touch to the basketball.

But whether the fan flew out or touched it lightly, he was considered to have completed the block!

The Dream Team players in the audience were stunned, although Link's speech yesterday caused a lot of public opinion, but in fact, few people really took Jokic seriously.

A second-round pick, after being drafted, he went to Europe for a year to work, and last season he averaged only 10 points per game...... This doesn't look amazing!

However, this white fat man has grown faster than everyone imagined.

The Dream Team dropped back quickly, so although Jokic made a successful block, Serbia did not complete the counterattack.

The two sides fell into position again, with Jokic at the top of the arc outside the three-point line, and Teodosic opted to pass the ball to Jokic after failing to break through Irving.

However, when passing, Irving's hand touched the ball, so the trajectory of the ball was a little high, and Jokic had to jump up to catch the ball.

As a result, the moment he received the basketball in the air, before he could land, Jokic directly stuffed the ball into the restricted area!

At this time, another Serbian defender, Nemaria. Nedvic just cut in from the baseline and jumped straight to the basket for an easy layup.

On the field, the five Dream Team players all looked at each other with bewildered expressions.

Jokic's pass was so sudden that they didn't even figure out what was going on.

What's the situation!? How did you get scored!? Aren't they all dead!?

On the bench, Lao K was also taken aback.

Even Divac, who was known as the "best passing center" back then, couldn't pass this kind of ball!

His vision, his passing accuracy, his physical coordination, are as good as a superstar!

After that, Jokic staged another picture of the board grabbing the board in the back of Green's head.

Generally speaking, only if the bounce is much better than the opponent, can you forcibly take the rebound from the back of the opponent's head without taking a favorable position.

Link has done this more than once.

But Jokic's jump height is like that of an elderly Duncan, and with his excellent jumping timing and height and reach, he was stunned to point out the basketball before Green, and then grabbed the rebound for the second time.

After grabbing the rebound, Jokic raised the basketball with one hand and threw the ball forward seemingly casually.

The basketball found his teammate as accurately as a bullet, assisting the latter to dunk with both hands with ease! Once again, the lazy-looking Jokic managed to help his team score.

scored 6 points in a row, and after Jokic came on the court, Serbia immediately changed the situation!

"What am I talking about? Serbia had fallen behind before only because they didn't field their strongest players. ”

Link smirked, and on the court, the Dream Team called a timeout, and the camera showed Green, only to see him swearing off the court.

As Link said before, he doesn't swear, but Green does!

In the games that followed, Jokic's performance continued to improve. Even if Lao K changed someone to fight him, he still couldn't suppress the upward momentum of the white fat boy.

DeAndrew. Jordan grabbed a defensive rebound, only to be stealed by Jokic, who suddenly burst out, and managed to score.

Jokic blocked and went down, not afraid of Cousins and Anthony's blocks, and scored with both hands.

Receiving a basketball in the middle distance, a fake shot and a real pass assist a teammate under the basket to easily put the ball in.

Receiving the ball in the right waist position, facing Green's close defense, he jumped directly on the spot and leaned back with high difficulty, and hit the basketball board......

Jokic became the brightest star of the day, and even the star-studded Dream Team members didn't perform as well as he did.

He knows that Serbia is in a very bad situation to qualify.

He knows that the players of the U.S. team are also players, and if you always think about how great they are, you won't play great.

He knows that he and the greatest player in the world are teammates and that no one else has anything to fear.

He also knew that this competition was the only chance he could drink Coke after returning from the Olympics!

So today, Nikolai . Jokic shocked the world!

Jokic's performance also made Serbia's score overtake the dream team for a while!

Subsequently, the two teams played even more anxiously until the last minute!

The players of the dream team have gone from being careless at the beginning, to playing seriously and now to being extremely nervous, and the mental journey has made Link complain over and over again.

Nobody takes Serbia seriously, no one takes Jokic seriously, no one takes Link's words seriously.

But when the Dream Team was only 3 points ahead in the final 32 seconds of the game, they all knew they were wrong!

Link really didn't brag!

Link was right, Serbia had caused huge problems for the Dream Team, and Jokic's performance was a shame for the Dream Team's interior players! He shot 11-of-14 today, and efficiently dropped off 25 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists! And the Dream Team's three big interior lines, Cousins, Jordan Jr. and Draymond. Green only scored 18 points in total, less than Jokic alone. ”

Mike. Brin looked at the data in surprise, looked at the score on the field, and looked at the nervous old K.

Who would have expected this situation before the game started?

Link expected it!

What a man of God!

The fans and the media who had been waiting to see Link's joke are now speechless.

Grizzlies players can surprise everywhere.

However, it is a pity that in the end, Serbia still lost by 3 points and lost to the Dream Team.

In the final game, Jokic shot from beyond the three-point line and had a chance to equalize. But it's a pity that the three-point frame came out, and he couldn't carry out the miracle to the end.

Although the ball didn't go in, it didn't stop Link from continuing to complain, "Oh my God, it's a pity. I bet the moment Jokic shoots, Draymond. Green's pants are all wet! ”

Jokic flicked his fist in disappointment, turned and walked down the tunnel.

What is left behind are the data and results that shocked the world.

Serbia narrowly missed the Dream Team by four points because of a second-round pick center from the Grizzlies!

Link looked at Jokic's back and couldn't help but laugh.

First, Dinwiddie, who was getting more and more accurate in three points, and then Harrell and Richardson, who had made huge improvements.

Now, Jokic has proven himself, too.

The Grizzlies' next season is promising!

That most difficult road, maybe it really works!

"Link, this game is incredible! How did you expect that? How do you know Jokic is going to play so well today!? "Mike. Brin swallowed, Link had seen a lot of miracles on the court.

But it's the first time I've done a miracle on the commentary platform!

"No, actually, I didn't expect that." Link shook his head faintly.

"What!? You mean, you didn't really expect this game to be that intense? ”

"No, I mean, I didn't expect the Dream Team to win. Fuck, they're out of luck. But next time they face Jokic, their luck won't be so good. Especially Draymond. Green, I bet, he's Jokic. ”

Finally, Link couldn't help but curse a swear word.
