Yang Nis. Antetokounmpo and Link.

Aside from having the same manager, these were two unrelated players.

But in fact, Antetokounmpo has always admired Link under the same manager as him.

Link's rise from an obscure draft pick to a superstar in the league has been what motivates Antetokounmpo to keep improving.

Although the personal relationship between the two is not very good, there are often private exchanges.

After the Grizzlies were eliminated by the Thunder in the Western Conference Finals last season, Antetokounmpo even said, "No matter who wins the championship in the end, he's not the best player in the league, because the best player in the league wears a Grizzlies jersey." ”

Antetokounmpo's ability to say this kind of thing in support of Link and the Grizzlies is enough to prove his respect and affection for Link.

It's just that at that time, Antetokounmpo was still an inconspicuous small character, and he didn't care much about what he said.

The young man who couldn't shoot threes, averaged less than 20 points per game, and failed to lead the team to the playoffs had only some reputation among a small group of fans.

When it comes to the Bucks, the most talked about is always the 14-year star Jabari. Parker, is Greg. Monroe, who is becoming more and more superstar-like, is Middleton, and is the head coach Jason. Kidd, and even Larry, who claims to have given up basketball for the sake of art. Sanders.

Yang Nis. Antetokounmpo? A lot of people don't even know how to read it.

But this year, although the season has only just begun. Ke Yannis. The name Antetokounmpo is being reported more and more frequently and is becoming more and more familiar.

Because this year, this "Greek monster" officially began to wreak havoc in the Union!

On Oct. 26, the Bucks opened at home against the Hornets.

Although the Bucks lost in the end, Antetokounmpo scored 31 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists in the first game, and the shooting rate was as high as 61.9%, and the Hornets were powerless to fight back!

The momentum of this young man is impressive.

And this game seemed to let the Bucks and the "Greek Monster" unlock the seal, making them unstoppable in the rest of the game.

Against the Nets on October 29, Antetokounmpo contributed 21 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists. And at the last moment, after teammate Jabari and Parker missed a key shot, Janis stretched out his long arm and easily picked up an offensive rebound among a group of Nets players to complete the rebound!

In the third game against the Pistons, Antetokounmpo had 17 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists, and he was still fearless in the face of Drummond's basket and played quite well. In the end, he also led the Bucks to win the game.

On November 1, against the Eastern Conference powerhouse Pacers, Antetokounmpo hit 33 points, 7 rebounds, 9 assists, 2 blocks and 2 steals with a super high shooting rate of 61.1%. George is completely suppressed!

And in this game, the Bucks also won 125-107 in the end!

If Antetokounmpo was just a small fight before, then against the Pacers and George, he really played famously.

The Pacers are definitely a strong team in the minds of most fans, and they are one of the few teams in the East that can compete with James.

Paul. George is also considered one of the best small forwards in the league and has been compared to Link and James.

But no one thought that the Milwaukee Bucks, who had no sense of existence before, would beat the Pacers so badly.

So far, the Bucks have won three in a row after losing to the Hornets in the opening game. And in these three games, Antetokounmpo played very well.

The 3-1 record also puts the Milwaukee Bucks at the top of the East.

This young Greek who just renewed his contract with the Bucks for 4 years and 100 million this summer told the world that the Bucks did not look away.

Looking back now, the trajectory of this "Greek monster" is extremely clear.

In the 13-14 season, he was still an ignorant rookie who spoke English extremely poorly. He was 28 days shy of 19 years old, and he was the youngest player in the league that season. As the team's "leftovers", he didn't get much of a chance.

In the '14-15 season, he took his free throws up a notch and improved his shooting percentage by 6 percentage points. He began to become a consistent scorer for the team, contributing 12.7 points per game, and his height has grown from 2.08m to 2.11m, and the team's win rate is over 50%.

In the 15-16 season, he began to appear occasionally in the footage of the top 10 goals. It was discovered that this young man, who was always tireless on the run, could often put the ball in under the siege of three people.

It wasn't until this year that the "Greek monster" officially made a name for itself. He became a player who could really break down the opponent on his own, and he became the undisputed core of Milwaukee!

With an arm span of 2.21 meters, the defensive line he forged is almost impossible to break through.

After entering the league, his height has continued to grow, so that he has now reached almost 2.13 meters!

But with the height of a center, he also has the dribble and speed of a defender, which makes him invincible in the number three position, making his counter-attacks unstoppable.

At the same time, he is also a big hand monster with a length of 12 centimeters more than the average palm of an adult man, and a length of 30.5 centimeters, which allows him to always complete all kinds of unbelievable frames. You must know that Leonard, who is famous for his big hands, has a hand length of "only" 28.6 cm!

Of course, his explosive athleticism with instant jumping, blocking, or dunking, and the massive skeleton that covers his entire body with muscles are even more impressive.

This guy doesn't have a lot of skill on the court, and his shooting isn't accurate, it's more like playing basketball on instinct.

His monster body seems to be destined to be born for basketball.

People joke that you can't learn anything by watching Antetokounmpo play, because he's purely talented!

But even so, even in the NBA league, where there are geniuses everywhere and all of them are talented, he is unstoppable.

And the most exaggerated thing is that this guy is not yet 22 years old! His ceiling is simply immeasurable!

After four games, everyone admits that Milwaukee is back in the ranks of the strong teams, and Antetokounmpo is a player to watch!

Even many media outlets put the news with such a headline on the front page - "Janis . Antetokounmpo, James and Link are the next façade of the league! ”

Finally, after four games of "Greek Monster" raging, the Grizzlies and Bucks are about to meet in the game.

Everyone wants to know whether Link can block the impact of this "monster" after continuing George.

Link, a player who was once feared by the league, can stop Antetokounmpo from continuing to disrupt.

In front of Antetokounmpo, an incomparably perverted striker, will Link be forced to go all out!

One team has just won four in a row, and the other has a three-game winning streak.

A player unleashes his talent every night and beats every opponent to the brim.

A player has nowhere to unleash his abilities because there is no match for him.

Now, they've finally met!

Antetokounmpo vs Link news dominates the covers of all sports sites!

Not only are the fans and the media looking forward to this game, but the "Greek monster" himself can't resist the urge to play.

In training the day before the match, Antetokounmpo said in an interview, "I'm really looking forward to playing Link, he's always been my idol and I'm going to do my best to beat him!" Yes, I want to win, and I think I should be able to win too. ”

This monster in the truest sense of the word has begun to eyeing another striker from Fresno University.
