More than a minute after Link got the rebound that turned his data into a triple-double, the game ended. The score was frozen at 108 to 101. The Memphis Grizzlies beat the Los Angeles Clippers by 7 points away, avoiding a series of losses.

At the moment of the game, almost all the fans in the Staples stands covered their heads with their hands, making it difficult to accept such an ending.

In their fantasy, the Los Angeles Clippers should have a big victory. In their fantasy, Griffin, the "hero", will defeat the "villain" who snatched his All-Star position and be proud. In their fantasy, Chris Paul will take the rudder and lead the Clippers in the right direction.

As a result, all this ended up failing and none of it was achieved.

The Clippers lost again, which was the second time they had lost in a row since Paul came back. Griffin also lost to Link, and his quasi-triple double was crushed by Link's real triple-double. Not to mention, Link grabbed Griffin's ball three times in four steals today. Chris Paul was still in the shadow of injury. He was exhausted in the second half of the game and did not even exert his half-successful power.

All the bad situations that may occur happened all today.

Reality is countless times more cruel than fantasy, Charles Barkley even commented on the commentary stage, "For Los Angeles fans, this is simply Black Thursday."

Paul shook his head with his waist and his injuries were as fierce as a tiger! Griffin bit his lip unwillingly, and he was only one rebound and two assists away! But sometimes, this slight gap will cause the results to vary greatly.

Others don’t care that Griffin can get a triple-double if he is only a few data, but they only know that Link did it and Griffin didn’t, it’s that simple.

The Los Angeles people collapsed collectively, and the Grizzlies players were extremely happy. Randolph, who was hit by an elbow at the beginning, deliberately cheered in front of the stands. It was estimated that the Clippers fans wanted to rush up and beat the fat man.

Randolph did it on purpose, but others hated him but couldn't get rid of him. Randolph liked the most.

Gasol Jr. was also very excited. His melee fight with Jordan Jr. in today's game was almost every minute and every moment. But in the end, he lived to the end. Of course, he also took a solid step in his beard-shaving plan.

The Grizzlies players were cheering, but Link was the calmest one among them.

For him, the final result only means that it is over and he is relaxed.

At first, people questioned that he was not as qualified as Griffin as All-Star. Later, Link played a better performance than Griffin, and people said that Griffin was just in a bad state during that period.

But tonight, Link defeated Blake Griffin in front of all Clippers fans at Staples! If Clippers fans have any objections, they would be forced to excuse them. At that time, even if Link doesn't speak out, fans in the league will take the initiative to stand on Link's side!

Sure enough, nothing can solve the problem better than winning!

The reporters had picked up the camera and stepped into the court, and Griffin and Link became the most popular two.

"Blake, what do you think about Link being selected as the All-Star?" The reporters asked Griffin a very embarrassing question as soon as they came up.

Griffin had never spoken about this before. He originally wanted to express his dissatisfaction after winning Link. But now, he won the first condition and did not do it. The opportunity to express his dissatisfaction afterwards was naturally gone.

"That's the choice of the fans, and Link is indeed an excellent player, and I have no good comments on this." Griffin said, clenching his fist.

It’s so frustrating to praise others if you lose!

On the other hand, Link was asked a similar question, "How do you view these voices when it comes to becoming an All-Star question? Today, have you proved that you are qualified to be a forward for the Western Conference Stars?"

Link's answer was very light, "Blake is indeed an excellent player. Maybe I'm just lucky and got more votes. But if Blake became an All-Star, I think it's reasonable. How to say it? This is the choice of fans, and it has nothing to do with who is better."

What an official answer, what a friendly attitude. Anyway, the winner is Link, so he is reasonable no matter how he says it.

Competitive sports, what is competitive sports? If you win, you will be awesome. If you win, you are qualified to say to the loser in an understatement, "Brothers, our friendship is the first, and the competition is the second."

Although Link did not attack his opponents with words from the front and slander Griffin like Jordan Jr., he felt very happy.

Losers can also attack people, but only winners have the qualification to make heroic speeches!

Another new posture of pretending is unlocked!

So at the post-match press conference, Link took advantage of his "new posture" to the extreme.

"Blake's performance in this game was as good as mine. Really, he only had one rebound and four assists less than me."

"The vote gap? It's not big. Anyway, our votes don't exceed one million. The gap of hundreds of thousands is actually not as exaggerated as everyone imagines."

"DAndrew Jordan is an excellent player. The comments Zach and I made before the game are just for the game. We won, and it turns out that our comments worked, but his didn't."

Seeing Link sitting next to him changing directions and pretending in a different way, Randolph almost couldn't help but want to complain.

Link is really bad!

Finally, Link's popularity soared due to this game.

The next day, several Los Angeles media even said, "Link is very popular."

After all, not all fans and media support the Clippers. Don’t forget that the most popular team in Los Angeles is still the Lakers.

Randolph saw these reports on the plane, and he complained bluntly, "There is a ghost general, and that boy Link is so happy after winning!"

Link himself was not very interested in these reports at this time. After he had fun yesterday, it was a bit boring to read these reports today.

He was sleeping in his seat with headphones on his head. He was so tired yesterday when he was playing the game, and he had to fly to Phoenix again early this morning. Link was already very tired.

Even players like Link who are physically fit will feel exhausted until the end of January. When you have time to sleep, Link is generally reluctant to waste it.

It can also be seen from the serious injury problems of each team that this shrinking season is so tormenting.

The Grizzlies have three games left in January. After playing the Suns tomorrow, they will have a day off. No. 30 and 31 will be back-to-back again, playing against the Nuggets and the Spurs respectively. In the last few days, the Grizzlies players still have to have enough rest.

In this harsh schedule, the Grizzlies were defeated by the Suns on the 28th. Nash and Dudley scored 45 points in a rebirth, which stunned the Grizzlies and lost by 2 points.

The Grizzlies survived until the end of the game, but in the back-to-back match of No. 31, the Grizzlies, who had been physically exhausted in the last game, lost 10 points against the defeated Spurs in the Western Conference semi-finals last season.

In this game, the expressionless Spurs No. 2 scored a double-double of 12 points and 10 rebounds, and caused a lot of trouble for Link on the defensive end.

Just as Link thought, this time when he saw Leonard, the guy became different from last time.
Chapter completed!
