Reverse Growth Superstar

Chapter 1219



Chris Wallace's mind was blank and he wondered if he had heard it wrong.

But seeing the mess in the media room, Wallace told himself - it's all true.

Retired and link, before link said that, no one would have linked the two words together.

To tell you the truth, it's rare for the ball to make reporters feel so shocked when they announce their retirement.

Because before they announced it, everyone could have guessed that they had plans to retire.

For example, a few years ago, Kobe Bryant, although he announced his retirement caused a great sensation, but fans and reporters will never be surprised.

After all, Kobe is old enough to retire. For this, everyone has been prepared for this.

The same is true of Wade, Garnett, Nowitzki and others.

When they announced their retirement, they were both sensational and equally unforgettable, but the fans would never be surprised.

But link is different, he just established the second Dynasty last season, he is not even 32 years old, he is still the strongest star in the league, he even has the ability to lead his team toward four consecutive championships.

At this juncture, people are unprepared for link's retirement!

Although there are some retired players in NBA history, most of them are not stars. If you are not a player, you may want to seek a better outlet and position.

And fans like Yao Ming and Roy, who choose to retire early because of injuries, won't surprise fans.

However, link does not belong to any of the above situations!

Without warning, he chose to quit at his peak.

The last player who chose to retire at his peak was Michael Jordan, who announced his retirement for the first time!

Lynk, that guy is really moving towards Jordan everywhere!

"Are you serious!? Why did you announce your retirement all of a sudden? "

"Can we know why? What are the reasons for retirement? "

"It's so sudden. Do your teammates know about it? Did the Grizzlies management know about it? "

Journalists exploded in an instant, and even the most experienced journalists are now unable to remain calm.

Chris Wallace swallowed. He couldn't imagine what effect link's retirement would have on the whole basketball world.

He glanced at Sam Smith next to him and found that the guy was also in a state of stupidity.

Sam and Smith are not at each other. Who are they? Who does he depend on to eat?

"Link, are you serious?" Next to link, Derek Rose also came to ask in panic.

"I'm serious, Derek. Next season is my last season. So I will never allow myself to fail. " Link nodded firmly, and those who had been recruited by him would not fail them.

Although he will retire in a year, he will at least let them get a championship ring!

Link touched the tears from the corner of his eyes and leaned close to the microphone: "well, at least I didn't leave without saying goodbye. I told you about my intention to retire a year in advance. At that time, Michael Jordan suddenly announced his retirement the day before the start of pre-season training camp. Compared with him, I'm kind. "

At this time, link felt the mobile phone in his pocket vibrated wildly.

You don't have to think about it. There must have been hundreds of SMS bombed over. There must be many people who want to ask him what's going on.

Kobe, Dwight, Wade, Butler, Harris, Whiteside... Link don't know how to reply them one by one later.

It seems that in less than a minute, the news of his retirement has spread all over the world.

In the Internet world, the timeliness of news is really terrible.

"Why retire? It's not as complicated as you think. I just want to change my way of living. If I can really achieve four consecutive titles, then I have no challenge in the NBA, I have nothing to prove. So, I'm going to explore some new areas, and more importantly, spend more time with my family, and that's it. "

"There's nothing to prove," said link, not a boast.

When Jordan retired for the first time, he won three championships, three MVPs and three fmvps in nine seasons.

What about link? Up to now, he has just played nine seasons, won six Championships, five MVPs, six fmvp, seven double bursts, and four best defensive player!

His personal honor is Jordan's at the same time!

It's not just Jordan, no player can get so many honors in his ninth season of career!

Therefore, link is most qualified to say "I have nothing to prove.".

The reason for link's retirement is indeed unexpected to most people.He may be the first superstar in NBA history who wants to retire early to accompany his family because he is too invincible.

"You said you would retire after winning the championship next season. What if you can't win it next season? Are you going to stay until you win? " A reporter, recovering his composure, asked a penetrating question.

"I can't miss the title, I have to do it." When link said this, he was as confident as he said on ESPN a few months ago that he would strive for the fourth consecutive championship.

Yes, the competition is really fierce next season. In both the East and the west, there are several teams that have the strength to compete for the championship.

But when the heat three giants and five-star warriors, grizzly bear all survived, what is this difficulty?

Link never writes empty checks. He only talks about what he can do.

All the reporters stayed where they were, and link stood up, said thank you to everyone, and left the FedEx stadium.

This may have been link's most polite to reporters.

Link closed the door of the media room, and his ears were quiet for a moment.

He looked at the familiar channel and couldn't help laughing.

In the last year, we must win!

After the press conference, link officially announced that he had finished this season's retirement, which became the most watched news of the day.

Yes, link's influence is not limited to sports. The announcement of his retirement has become a great event in the whole world!

Some experts analyze that after link retires, Memphis will reduce several billion dollars of direct income and tens of billions of dollars of indirect losses every year!

NBA ratings are expected to decline by 20% to 30%. Nike shoes sales are expected to decline about 30%, jerseys sales will fall by 25%, and the stock price will also drop significantly!

These are 100% things that will happen at this time next year!

This kind of economic loss is a natural disaster.

This is the impact of the retirement of a historic superstar on the sport and even the world.

Overnight, all the fans all over the world wrote a letter asking link to stay.

Local Memphis fans gathered outside the FedEx stadium and held up the sign "don't go, link" for the night.

The mayor of Memphis publicly asked link to fight for Grizzlies for a few more years.

Adam jokes arrived in Memphis overnight, said to meet link.

The whole world is in a mess. Even Wade, Nowitzki and even Kobe Bryant a few years ago didn't make such a big stir when they announced their retirement.

When they retire, their influence has actually declined a lot.

And link announced his retirement at a time when he had the greatest influence, which made everyone lose his guard.

Link did not respond to anyone's text messages that night, nor did he agree to any requests for a meeting.

He just stayed at home quietly with his wife and children.

In the whole chaos of the outside world, link himself spent a quiet night.

Because he knew it was his last quiet night before the start of the new season.

Starting from tomorrow, the pre-season training camp will officially open, and link will officially face the huge challenge of four consecutive titles.

Link's retirement year, unlike Dirk, Kobe and Wade, just enjoy it and finish his retirement tour in the eyes of the public.

His last year's goal is still the champion!

No one will be soft on link in the last year.

The last and most difficult season of his career, link is ready for it.

So this last quiet night, link must cherish it well...
