After the public training before the All-Star Game on the 16th, the video of Link and Irving fighting on the training ground was posted on the Internet and spreading wildly.

In people's impression, Irving should be a good single-handed player. He had to use his fancy dribble to take Link away, which seemed not too difficult. However, what people saw on the Internet was Link's nail-board hat against Irving and a series of easy scores after the No. 0 striker.

After the video was uploaded by major reporters, its popularity even surpassed the upcoming individual competition tonight. Every commentator and guest talked about the one-on-one challenge between Link and Irving.

So much so that when I was attending a business event in the afternoon, people asked Link, "How do you feel when I beat Kelly Irving in the one-on-one challenge?"

"We're just having fun, otherwise the training before the game would be too boring. Kelly is a very outstanding player, and his offensive methods are very gorgeous. If it were in the official game, his performance would definitely be better."

Link was very kind in front of the camera, and did not take the opportunity to mock Irving, nor did he talk a lot, which gave Irving enough face.

After all, Link and Irving have no grudges, and one is in the east and the other is in the west, and they are not direct competitors. Therefore, Link did not "kill all" Irving.

The one who wants to win is Durant. The media will probably enjoy the quarrel between Link and Durant today.

Although on the surface, Link always used "entertainment" touting this one-on-one challenge, in fact, he knew best what Irving had experienced.

Entertainment? Have you ever seen entertainment that almost got mentally broken?

So in the three-point competition that night, Irving was extremely focused. He knew that this was his only chance to save face.

In the end, Irving shone in the three-point competition. He defeated the "Red Mamba" Bonner from the Spurs by 3 points in the final and won the three-point competition championship. It also proved to the world that he is not the kind of player who only knows how to play tricks. His gorgeousness on the basketball court is not flashy.

It was not until the moment Irving lifted the trophy of the three-point competition that he finally breathed a sigh of relief. At least this three-point competition champion can make this All-Star weekend not all bad memories.

At the same time, Link, who created a nightmare for Irving, was traveling around with Rachel in Houston.

Link, who was screaming with Rachel in the amusement park, would not know that because he defeated Irving without mercy, his image in the league had become increasingly terrifying.

A generation of veterans and newcomers were born, and the great devil, who was afraid of three points, was born.

"Damn it, why are you back?" In the evening, Randolph, who was playing games, opened his hands.

Link gave Randolph a look. These days, as long as he comes back, Randolph will ask this on purpose. Because in Randolph's concept, dates that have to come back alone at night are not called dates.

"Where will I live if I don't come back? At the entrance of Toyota Center?"

"Of course it's Rachel's room. She didn't invite you to have a cup of coffee?" Randolph smiled terrified, completely without the serious look he had been selected for the All-Star a month ago.

Now Randolph has become an absolute funny guy again.

"You know how to drink coffee in one day, and you'll have an All-Star Game tomorrow night. Zach, how are you doing?"

"Tsk, do you need to prepare? Anyway, I'm not the protagonist. Come and play NBA2k games with me. Look, since I was selected as the All-Star, my attributes have become 83, hahahaha." Randolph signaled Link to sit down. Link was bored, so he simply picked up the handle and started a game with Randolph.

"I don't know what earth-shaking changes will happen to the league before the trade deadline. Have you heard of it? The Hawks are particularly interested in taking action against Josh Smith now. Because of that guy's contract extension with the Hawks, it seems that they are not very happy. There is also Dwight Howard, who has struggled with the Lakers this season and is likely to stay this summer. I don't know if the Lakers can take him before the trade deadline. Also, I heard that the Celtics have already wanted to touch Pierce and Garnett. Damn Danny Angie, what a cold-blooded guy, the players can throw them out if they are useless."

While playing games, Randolph talked about recent trading rumors with Link. Every February, in addition to the All-Star Game, the most talked about by fans is the mid-term trading of NBA.

Player trading is always a popular topic for NBA. After all, with the added fuel to the fire of reporters, the stay and departure of every player is as exciting as a high-scoring suspense movie.

"I don't care much about this. After all, we don't seem to have any plans for mid-term trading this year. As for Howard, he is likely to not take over. Howard's contract expires this summer. Who can sign directly? Josh Smith is the same. He and Howard will basically stay in the team." Link curled his lips. As someone who has seen all the trades over the years, he is not interested in such a suspenseless thing.

"Who said we have no trading plan? I heard that someone might leave between Darrell Arthur and Spetz." Randolph mysteriously approached Link's ear, making it look like there was a third person in the room.

"You have heard a lot of things, Zach, but none of them are reliable. You said they were leaving, where would they go? Who would they go? We are the first in the league, man, we don't need to strengthen in many positions."

"Of course, the ones that strengthen the positions of Spetz and Arthur. The management wants to strengthen the number four position. The decent Arthur performed poorly after ruptured the Achilles tendon last season, and his athletic ability is not as good as half as before. That guy Spetz has become fatter recently. I mean, his condition is very ups and downs." Randolph was just talking, and in the game, Spetz appeared and replaced him.

"Okay, then who is the candidate we get?" Link didn't pay much attention to the deal, and he really didn't know that there were rumors about the Grizzlies.

"Well, what's that guy's name? I don't know him. It seems to be called, Tobosen Harris? It's called Harris anyway."

Link shook his head. Randolph's news was indeed unreliable. Tobosen Harris, is there such a No. 1 player in the league? Even if there are, such players who have never heard of them may not be more useful than Spetz and Arthur.

Link kept repeating this funny name in his mind, but the more he repeated it, the more he felt that the name was easier.

Just as Randolph was about to control Link to dunk, the game's pause menu suddenly popped up on the TV.

"Damn, Link, what are you doing? You are the one who wants to dunk!" When he was about to dunk, someone stopped and Randolph almost smashed his handle.

Link ignored Randolph's yelling, but stared at Randolph with wide eyes, "The Harris you just mentioned is not Tobias Harris, right? The Tobias Harris, who is playing for the Milwaukee Bucks now, wants to trade him?"

Randolph didn't know why Link was so surprised, nor did he know why he suddenly became interested in this rumor again.
