Early the next morning, Link was the third to arrive at the training gym, as usual.

The first to Jimmy. Butler, the second to Dellavedova and Link was always the third.

The order in which these three people arrive does not change almost every day.

Once the coaching staff and other staff were on the field, Link couldn't wait to walk into the head coach's office.

When Link walked in, he found Georger looking at a report. There is no doubt that it is Link's physical assessment report during this time.

"How? Dave? Link excitedly sat down at Jogle's desk, and as long as he passed this level, he could completely get Bill. Simmons shut his foul mouth.

Instead of answering, Joggle sighed. Then, continue to read the report with a frown.

"Tsk, how can you be ...... like this" While watching, Qiao Ge also let out a similar emotion.

Link began to panic, could it be that something was really wrong with his body? It shouldn't be!

After a long five minutes, Dave. Jogger put down the report and took off his glasses. He placed his fingers clasped on the table, revealing a serious expression.

"Link."

"Say it, Dave."

"It's a pity......"

"Hey, forget it, the game matters." Link waved his hand, feeling a little lost in his heart.

"I mean, it's a shame that you're probably going to have one less day off for All-Star Weekend next year. The report says that you are in very good health and that Judy has taken good care of you. You're ready to go to the dunk contest, Link, and go fly. ”

Link's expression went from loss to excitement in less than a second. At that moment, what Link wanted to do most was to punch Joggle in the face.

Okay, I didn't learn, I learned to talk and go around in circles!

But then again, there's Judy. With the help of Seto's "secret weapon", Link's physical condition this season has indeed been outstanding. If nothing else, even the fatigue is much less than before.

Participating in a slam dunk contest in such a good physical condition must be no problem.

Link picked up the report and rushed out of the office, immediately calling Newell.

Hearing that Link had decided to participate in the slam dunk contest, Newell screamed on the phone. In addition, Link also heard a scolding from Newell's suspected wife on the phone, "Did you take the wrong medicine again!?" ”

"Great, Link! Thank you so much! The dunk contest is saved, the 2014 All-Star Game is saved! I'll announce it now, and everyone will be surprised! ”

Newell was very emotional, and an MVP-caliber player participated in a slam dunk contest that hadn't happened in many years.

Moreover, this is also the first time in the history of the NBA that a Chinese-American player participated in the slam dunk contest. As it turns out, Chinese Americans in the NBA are not limited to technical jobs. Chinese people can do such things as flying away!

However, Newell's proposal was rejected by Link, "No, can you please not announce this for a while?" ”

"Huh? But...... Why? This will have to be announced sooner or later. ”

"I know, but I want to announce it myself. Rest assured, John. I'll announce that decision after tonight's game with Skycity. ”

Link didn't want to let Bill. Simmons, that bastard, startled the chance, and gave it to someone else.

John. Newell agreed to Link's inconsequential request, and then waited for good news.

The Christmas war is over, but the Christmas holidays are still going on. Therefore, the NBA league still arranged some blockbuster matchups to rush the ratings.

So after the Christmas War, the Grizzlies meet their old rivals, the Space City Legion.

When the two sides met a month ago, the Grizzlies had a 15-game winning streak, tying the record for the longest winning streak set by the Rockets that year.

But now, that record has been rewritten by the Grizzlies to start a 20-game winning streak. The Houston Rockets will no longer be able to appear on the throne of the first place in history.

The two sides have had grievances for a long time, and today is just another collision of these grievances.

Today's game will be played in Houston. Howard confidently said before the game, "I'm not going to let Link do whatever he wants in the box at the Toyota Center because it's my home field." Pull up the rod after rebounding? Separate people from the buckle? Link just give it a try. ”

The Rockets crushed the Spurs in the Christmas War, which seemed to inflate Howard a little. He seemed to have forgotten who had made him dizzy with his superb dreamy dance moves under the basket last time.

As soon as the game started, Howard's cowhide was blown off. Because the Grizzlies' first score tonight at the Toyota Center came from Link's dunk.

In the first round of attack, Link broke through with Gasol's cover. Howard chased after Link, but Link's acceleration ability made Howard a little overwhelmed.

In the end, Link completed a one-handed flying slam without hindrance.

Don't let Link do whatever he wants in the penalty area? Bang Bang Bang!

Link completed the dunk as soon as he opened the game, and the fans at the Toyota Center fell silent. Link was in great shape today, and the Rockets were hanging by a thread today.

In the following games, Link also frequently staged dunks. Today, any ball that can be dunked, Link will definitely not treat it gently, and no one will be wasted.

The fans enjoyed watching it, and later even the Rockets fans were mobilized to cheer for Link's dunk several times.

When the home fans cheer for the away players, it proves that there is not much left to see in this game.

"Link had a strong desire to dunk today and was very expressive. If he can participate in the slam dunk contest, I think the fans should be able to enjoy a visual feast like never before. Van Gundy, who was commentating on the game, was thrilled by Link.

"But that's not realistic, and there are almost no big stars willing to participate in the slam dunk contest these days. Just like Bill. What Simmons said is that players of the level of Link and LeBron are just talking, and they won't really participate. Van Gundy's partner pouted, wanting to see Link participate in the slam dunk contest, and it is estimated that he will not be able to wait in his lifetime.

With Link's brutal devastation and Randolph's stunning low-post performance, the Grizzlies defeated the Houston Rockets for the second time this season 109-100 on the road.

Randolph confronts a young Terrence. Jones, who blasted a big double-double of 23 points and 17 rebounds, vented all the grievances he had against James in the last game.

Link also had a double-double of 24 points, 8 assists and 11 rebounds, and his dunks embarrassed Howard.

The good mood of the Houston Christmas season was destroyed in an instant, and the worst part was to watch a fucking game and have to go through an irritating traffic jam before you can get home.

No way, who let Houston without a subway?

After the game, the reporter naturally talked about Link's dunks that he showed many times today.

"Link, can you tell us why you're so excited today? You've never had a game before that with more dunks than today. Is it because you're facing rockets? It's because of Dwight. Was Howard provocative to you before the game? ”

"No, actually, I don't care about Dwight at all. What Howard said before the game. What I'm doing today has nothing to do with Dwight. Link spread his hand and inadvertently gave Howard another critical hit.

"I just want to say that Bill. That bastard Simmons better go pick up a nice pair of stockings right now. Because, I've decided to participate in the 2014 New Orleans All-Star Game Slam Dunk Contest! When the time comes, I hope Simmons will be waiting for me at the scene in women's clothing as agreed. Now, you have nowhere to run, bastard! ”

After Link finished speaking, the reporter also smiled, he thought Link was joking.

Ten minutes later, league officials announced the names of the first players to participate in the slam dunk contest.

Then, basketball fans all over the world climaxed.
