1019: Continuous Good News

On July 7, just as everyone was speculating on the belonging of Wade's next stop.

The official Grizzlies and Wade's social media suddenly announced at the same time that Wade entered Memphis for a price of $48 million for two years!

48 million in two years, which is much more decent than the Heat's less than 10 million in one year.

The respect that Wade did not receive was retrieved from the Grizzlies.

After Wade joined, Link immediately posted photos of himself hugging Wade on the court on social media, and said, "A strong team up!"

Wade was also very excited. He said, "I am very happy to be able to fight alongside a great player like Link. We have always been good friends and can finally do something together."

Grizzlies fans are naturally very happy about this. Indeed, Wade's peak has passed, and he is no longer within the top 10 of the league. But for the Grizzlies, this is still a very powerful reinforcement!

Unexpectedly, Heat fans were not disgusted with Wade's approach.

Indeed, the Grizzlies were once the mortal enemy of the Heat, but that was a few years ago.

Moreover, Pat Riley's behavior also annoyed Miami fans. Although they were reluctant to leave, they all supported Wade's departure to achieve higher value and get higher salaries.

Not every time we part, we will make both sides rebel. When Nash left Phoenix, he also received support and blessings from fans.

It can be said that this transfer is a joy. In the free agent market, there are few situations where most people cheer for the Grizzlies.

Are Grizzlies and Link still the big villain that people hated at the time? Yes, not anymore.

Yes, because the Grizzlies and Link still have a strong villain temperament.

Instead, it is because the current grizzly bears are not disgusting.

After the Warriors won the championship with Durant's joining last season, the "villain" in the hearts of fans changed from the Grizzlies to the Warriors.

Originally, many people were looking forward to the day when the grizzly bears crashed. But when that day came, most people couldn't be happy.

After all, the Warriors and Durant's approach really made the fans very resistant.

Such a powerful lineup, such a blatant group, such a suspense-breaking way to win the championship... These are not what fans want to see.

Compared to the Warriors, people are more willing to watch the Grizzlies' path to winning the championship.

At least, the Grizzlies have never been a super team.

Now, the Grizzlies have finally joined the team, and the fans are so happy. The 15-16 season has just ended and not been a month ago, and the fans are becoming extremely looking forward to next season.

Steve Cole saw news about Wade signing the Grizzlies while on vacation.

Apart from feeling sad, Cole actually didn't feel much.

Because he believed that even if Wade joined the Grizzlies, the Grizzlies still had no choice but to do anything to the Warriors.

There is a reason why Wade was abandoned by the Heat. Everyone knows that Wade's condition will continue to fall next season.

On the other hand, the Warriors, whether they are Curry, Thompson, Green or Durant, are still in the rising period of their careers.

Link wanted to turn around with a "Flash" who could no longer draw out the "lightning" was simply a delusion.

Compared to Wade, Cole was more concerned about Nash's situation.

He has been waiting for Nash's reply these two days. As the general manager of the Suns at that time, Cole believes that he knows Nash better than all the coaches at the current service except D'Antoni.

If Stephen Curry wants to go further and reach the pinnacle, he cannot do without Nash's help.

But what surprised Cole was that Nash had considered so many days. In Cole's expectation, Nash should have accepted the invitation soon.

Just as he was thinking, Cole's cell phone vibrated.

Cole, who was enjoying the sunshine on the beach in California, picked up his phone and looked at it, Steve Nash.

"Steve! I've been waiting for your phone call for a long time!" Cole was very excited. He wanted to work with Nash again.

"Haha, thank you for your patience, Cole. But I have to say sorry to you first."

"Click!" Hearing this, Cole suddenly tightened his fingers and broke the glasses' legs in his sunglasses.

"What? Why are you sorry?"

"I may not be able to accept your invitation, Cole." Nash looked out the window, and in fact, he still didn't know whether his decision was correct until now.

"Is it because of the Canadian national team? I said that you can go back to work at any time. We don't force you to follow the team every day."

"No, not because of this."

"What else can it be because of?" Cole spread his hands.

"I...I want to go to another team." Nash clenched his fists, believing that he must be crazy!

But then again, when did he pass by "normal" again?

Congenital spine forward, back neuralgia... These two things made him unable to get out of bed, the pain was unbearable, and he had to lie on the sidelines for massage after being suspended.

But even so, he still insisted, it was not crazy, it was anything.

He endured so much pain, so much pain, so much blood and tears. Isn’t he just trying to try it with his own strength?

At the end of his career, Nash actually tried to join a team that could win the championship like other veterans, and ended his regrets in his career.

So he chose the Los Angeles Lakers, and joined forces with Kobe and Howard, two of the best players in the league at that time.

What's the result?

As it turns out, if you approach the championship with the mentality of "easy to hold the ring", the championship will become further and further away from you.

If you want a championship, you can only work hard!

"I don't understand, Steve. What does the other team mean?" Cole was silent for a long time before speaking.

"To be honest, Cole, Link and Robert Pera have come to me, and they want me to join the Memphis Grizzlies."

"What!?" Cole was shocked. He thought that only the Warriors had contacted Nash from the beginning to the end. "Did you promise them?"

"Not yet, but... it's soon. I want to go there and see how much power I have. Haha, I know, this is not what people of my age should say. But... how can I know if I don't try?"

Cole was stupid. In an instant, the sunshine in California was no longer so bright, and the beach in front of him was no longer so beautiful.

Wade's joining the Grizzlies did not cause any trouble in Cole's mind.

But Nash joins the Grizzlies... This makes Cole feel a little uncomfortable.

The Memphis Grizzlies have a strong firepower this summer, and their operations are coming one after another.

All of these things fully illustrate one thing-Memphis people want to make a comeback!

They want to push the Warriors down, they want to get their own things back, they want to stand on the top of the league again!

Moreover, they can no longer wait, they will do this next season!

"Cole Cole?" Seeing that Cole didn't respond for a long time, Nash shouted from the other end.

"Well... I get it, Steve. Then, good luck, I hope you can find everything you want in Memphis."

Cole finished speaking and hung up the phone.

The Memphis Grizzlies' three consecutive championships have just been concluded, and they can't wait to return to the throne, as if they didn't take the Warriors seriously at all.

"Stop looking down on others!" Cole couldn't help but pat his deputies on the recliner and yelled.

After Michael Jordan won three consecutive championships, it took two years to lead the Chicago Bulls back to their peak.

The Grizzlies have only been waiting for a year. Who do Link thinks he is?

Does he really think he can surpass Michael Jordan?

Cole was very angry. He felt despised. Although he had just led the team to win the championship not long ago. At this time, Cole couldn't wait to defeat the Grizzlies again.

Any member of the Memphis Grizzlies is now his enemy.

Including Steve Nash!

Cole won't let the Grizzlies end the Warrior era easily, and the Memphis should get used to losing.

Just as Cole got angry, Link received a call from Nash.

As soon as he came up, Nash raised a question that made Link furious.
Chapter completed!
