The finals of the 13-14 season started on June 5 and lasted only for eight days before ending.

There is no doubt that the progress of this round of finals was unexpectedly short. Who would have thought that the Miami Heat, which has three giants, could not even win a single game in this final.

Dwyane Wade, LeBron James and Chris Bosh, when these three announced that they would gather on the South Coast, people said that the Heat could win at least 8 championships.

What's the result? The Miami Heat has reached the finals for four consecutive years, but has only won the championship once, with a winning rate of only 25% in the finals.

This is indeed not a very dominant achievement.

Some say, it is because the Heat encountered the more dominant Grizzlies.

How difficult is it for the Grizzlies to win this time? First of all, they became the sixth team in NBA history to be able to win consecutive championships.

Although there seem to be many examples of consecutive championships, the Lakers just did it four years ago. But if you look closely, you will find that the teams that NBA can achieve consecutive championships were only the Lakers, Celtics, Pistons, Rockets and Bulls before.

Even if the San Antonio Spurs won three championships in five years, they had never had even a single championship.

Now, the Memphis Grizzlies have officially joined the ranks of the teams in succession. This small city team, which had no presence a few years ago, has undoubtedly entered the league's greatest teams.

In addition to the Memphis Grizzlies, Link has undoubtedly greatly improved his historical status and influence through this championship.

Last year he won his first championship trophy, and people may say he was just a lucky person. After all, there are also many players or teams in NBA history who fell immediately after winning a championship.

But this year, Link's championship is not that simple. After winning the FMVP and O'Brien Cup, Link won four major honors this year, MVP, Best Defensive Player, FMVP and the championship!

First of all, mvp and fmvp, and being able to get mvp means that a player completely dominates the league in the regular season. Getting fmvp means that the player performs best in the finals. Of course, first of all, you must also be able to enter the finals.

Therefore, if a player can win these two honors at the same time in a season, it can only explain one problem - this player is definitely a superstar among superstars and a big name among big names. From the regular season to the finals, this player completely dominated the entire season.

Wade is great? But he has no regular season MVP in his career so far. Iverson has a regular season MVP, but he has only won one game in the finals. What about Kobe? He has the honors of both MVP and FMVP, but he did not get it in the same season.

There are so many superstars in NBA history, and there are only 8 people who can win both MVP and FMVP in a single season.

Larry Bird, "Magic" Johnson, Willis Reed, "Big Dream" Olajuwon, O'Neal, Duncan, James and Michael. I have me and Jordan, who have the only eight players who can win MVP and FMVP in the same season before.

And each of the eight players has a very prominent name, and they are undoubtedly the top 20 in history. As the ninth, Link's historical status has naturally been greatly improved.

What if the requirements are further improved? If you win MVP and FMVP in the same season, plus the best defensive player and championship, there will be only two of the 9 people in an instant!

Duncan also won MVP and FMVP, but he has not won the Best Defensive Player Award in his career so far. Like Duncan, James also has no Best Defensive Player.

Michael Jordan also said that he finally had no self on the list this time.

Jordan won the Best Defensive Player once, and he also got MVP that year. But unfortunately, the Bulls led by Jordan did not reach the finals that year, so he missed the FMVP. Therefore, even the strongest Jordan did not win the MVP plus FMVP plus Best Defensive Player plus the championship in the same season.

Before Link, only Olajuwon had done this amazing thing. This is why Olajuwon's historical status is so high. If you look closely, you will find that Olajuwon's personal honor is actually not as good as many stars. But most of the stars with more honors than him are not as good as his historical status.

It is precisely because Olajuwon is a player who has truly achieved the Grand Slam in a single season that he is so strong in people's hearts.

And now, Olajuwon is finally no longer alone. Of course, he has also withdrawn from the ranks of "the only one in history".

Link became the second in history and the first player in the 21st century to win four major honors in a single season.

Even though Link suddenly announced his retirement today, just this season, his short four-year career is enough to leave a strong mark in NBA history!

So, Link and the Grizzlies won the championship this year, not just to win the championship.

Many people only discovered after the game that they witnessed not only the birth of a new champion, but the beginning of another legend!

Indeed, Link is an older rookie. He was 22 years old when he entered the league. In a few days, Link will turn 26.

26 years old is not old for a professional player, but it is definitely not young anymore. But even so, people still believe that this will be the beginning of a brand new legend.

Link is still four years away from his 30 years old. In four years, he still has countless possibilities to create miracles.

What's more, even if Link is over 30, people believe that his dominance will never suddenly decline. James is 30 years old, but he is still one of the best players in the league.

The next day, the big title given by espn pointed out the particularity of the Grizzlies' championship this time, "The champion is not just the champion."

The article said that although the Grizzlies' two consecutive championships are already very great, this may just be the beginning of a greater era. As of now, the Grizzlies are still in the rising period. They are also the closest team to three consecutive championships after the Lakers at the beginning of the millennium.

The Grizzlies' winning this time is of great significance.

After the finals, Bill Simmons was definitely the most uncomfortable. As a professional "Lin Black", Simmons really wanted to write an article to suppress Link's spirit. But even his boss ESPN chose to praise Link, and Simmons could only choose to remain silent.

Simmons' discomfort represents the current state of most American fans.

A truly great superstar is always full of controversy. If no one hates him, it only means that the star is not strong enough.

But whether you like or hate it, these are the attention and influence of that star. After all, it is not easy to make so many people hate themselves by relying on their strength.

The day after the Grizzlies won the championship, almost all the topics on social media were related to Link. The top three hot searches were Link!

This is the best proof of Link's huge influence now.

In addition to the championship and basketball itself, people were also very shocked by the sudden public relationship between Link and Rachel. Even many people who don’t pay much attention to basketball or sports are all watching melons.

However, most of the comments on this matter on social media are full of "sour".

"I object to this marriage, how could this be possible!?"

"I'm very curious, why Link got together with Rachel. I haven't seen it before, there's no clue at all! Link has never had any scandals outside the court, but he ended up making a big deal."

"Promise me, Rachel, I can only use my mouth to eat in the future, okay?"

"You are so strange. Can't you speak with your mouth? Uh...why do you all say I'm an honest person?"

On the Internet, people have a hot discussion about Link and Rachel. Even many legendary players are very interested in Link.

O'Neal said in an interview, "Link may be the most influential champion in recent years. Let's not talk about it anymore. I want to go to social media to see more about Link and Rachel's love history leaks!"

When facing the cameras of the reporters, Bobcats owner Michael Jordan calmed down a lot, "I knew he would have such an influence for a long time, but it was still a little worse than me."

The whole world is discussing Link and the Grizzlies. Whether people are paying attention to his love history or his experience in winning the championship, what remains unchanged is that Link is the protagonist.

However, at this time the protagonist, who was attracting attention from all over the world, was sitting on the plane back to Memphis, holding the championship, giggling silently.

Link, who had been tired all year round and had a party all night last night, was already asleep in his arms with Leo Bryan's cup.
