"Will link really leave? Don't worry, that guy is reluctant to leave. If you still have the ability to score 83 points in a game, 33 wins in a row and 75 wins in a season, and earn 50 million a year, will you still go? "

"According to insiders, link is already negotiating a new contract with Grizzlies."

"The invincible Michael Jordan has been back twice, and guys like them can't stand loneliness. It's the same with link. He can't leave. "

After the regular season of the 19-20 season, all the major media not only do the prospect of the new year's playoffs, but also discuss the issue of link's going or staying.

Although link said last October that it would be his last season, no one expected him to be in such a good shape this year.

Overall, link is still in his prime.

Whether it's physical or athletic, it's excellent.

Are there any stars in NBA history who choose to retire? It's true, but their situation is slightly different from that of link.

Jordan chose to retire, mainly because his father's leaving gave him too much impact.

Strictly speaking, Yao Ming chose to retire at his peak, but he had to compromise because of his injuries.

Brandon Roy, et al. Even Ross, how close they are to their old ways.

But link is different, he has neither the injury nor the other external reason causes him to choose to retire.

So many people think that link may have changed his mind.

A star who is in his prime year and still in his peak period can still win 50 million dollars in a season. He has no reason to retire!

There has never been such an example in NBA history.

As a result, link, who has announced his retirement, is still considered the biggest player in the free agent market this summer.

Even if he only renews Grizzlies, it's definitely a big news!

Many fans also hope that this conjecture can be realized. Link's 10-year career is not short, after all, the average NBA career length is only 4.8 years.

Basically, the rookie contract is over, and a lot of people have to leave.

Link's 10 years are well above average.

But is 10 years really long? Compared with those legends, it is not long.

Kobe's career is as long as 20 years, although Wade removed the meniscus in college, but also played for 16 years. Allen Iverson was one of the first players in the 96 generation to leave history, but he also had 14 years in his career.

Not to mention old Carter, who has been playing for 22 years and is still fighting for the championship.

No one is willing to give up link. Everyone hopes that link can stay and continue his legend.

Although his achievements have been terrible, it is believed that link can go further.

As a result, many people are willing to believe the news that link will not retire.

If link suddenly disappeared in his peak period, many fans would not even find an idol to replace him.

A lot of people can't accept that.

However, link did not respond to the latest rumors.

Some people think that link is tacit, others think that link just wants to prepare for the playoffs.

But everyone is wrong.

The day after the regular season, link took his family to Oklahoma City.

Not to mention that he didn't have time to respond.

At the end of April, although the temperature was not so high, it could vaguely smell the fever of summer.

Link likes summer because summer always means a lot to him.

He became a professional on a hot summer day, signing his first contract with the Grizzlies in the summer. He tasted the taste of the championship for the first time in summer. He married his wife in the summer and ushered in the birth of a child in the summer...

in summer, he always recalled many memories of link. And most of these memories are beautiful.

"Dad, what is this place?" Lin Ling, who led link, looked around curiously. On the wide green space, rows of neat crosses attracted the little girl's eyes.

"This is where the dead rest." Link looked at his daughter and answered with a smile.

"What are the dead?"

"People who have gone far and far."

"Far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far

"Much more than that, of course."

Link brought his family to Oklahoma just to see his old friends at the turn of the decade.

The old friend who went far away.Of course, link didn't make the atmosphere too heavy. Every time he saw upshaw, link didn't want to make the atmosphere heavy.

Upshaw is a symbol of positivity and optimism. Sadness and depression are not his style.

Walking to a simple tombstone, link stopped his steps.

Imperceptibly, it was 10 years ago that upshaw left.

Even the tombstone has become much older.

Ten years ago, who can remember that a Development League player who once fought for his dream was buried here?

Ten years, who can remember the guy who gave his life on the basketball court?

Ten years ago, who can really remember the words engraved on the link series shoes? What do they mean?

Link doesn't know the answer. He doesn't know who remembers.

But at least, he never forgot.

"Come on, let's go and enjoy the cool under the big tree over there." Seeing link squatting in front of the tombstone, Rachel takes her daughter's hand and points to a big tree not far away.

She knew that link needed to be alone with her old friends.

Looking at his wife and daughter chasing each other, link's face is full of happy smile.

"See? The children are three years old. In the blink of an eye, man, in the blink of an eye... If that hadn't happened, you would have had a baby, too... Well, maybe just like you, it would be a stubborn donkey. "

"By the way, your sister is getting married in July. He's a good guy. He runs a restaurant in Texas. Most of all, he is very kind to your mother and sister. I'll be at the wedding, and I'll take your place and hand over your sister to the lucky one. Don't worry, man. They'll have a good time in the last ten years, the next ten years, and the rest of their lives. "

"Ten years... Yes, ten years, damn it. Have you had enough rest? I'm exhausted. So, I decided to retire after this season! I didn't expect that the word "retired" would come to my lips one day. "

"Don't worry, I haven't planned to support myself yet. After I retire, I won't be drunk all day. I just want to change my life. I'm going to do business with Kobe and igordala. I'm going to China to open basketball training camp. I also want to call UFC if I can. Ha ha ha ha, forget about this one. Why do you want to die? "

"So I'm here to see you for the last time. Don't get me wrong. I mean, the last time I look at you as a professional. The next time I have time to meet, I won't be a professional anymore. We have recited our identity for ten years, and it is time to put down the name we are proud of. You too, Zick. Have a good rest, professional basketball, now let the kids play. By the way, speaking of IMPs, Zion Williamson is really exaggerating, 129 kg. If you see him, you'll be scared out of your way... "

said link, pausing.

He held back a word in his heart, but suddenly he couldn't say it.

Finally, link sat on the not so clean grass, looked at the summer sky, and thought of his first visit to the upshaw house ten years ago.

"Our basketball story is over, Zick. It's over."

Link's nose suddenly soured, and he found it harder to say the end to upshaw than it was to a bunch of journalists and fans in October last year.

"Of course, we still have a short way to go. Lose? How can you lose. I'll ask Michael Jordan to hand me the championship trophy! Let's go together. Let's draw a perfect end to this decade. "

With that, link stood up, turned his back to his wife and daughter and rubbed his eyes gently.

The sun is a little dazzling, even the air I breathe seems to be burning.

The smell of summer fever, more and more obvious.
