Rudy Gay's shoulder injury finally broke out.

Guy has been playing with two thick shoulder protectors this season. He is more resistant to physical confrontation than before. I don't know if it is related to the injury. These details may indicate that guy's shoulder has not been fully healed. In other words, his shoulder has been very fragile since the operation.

There is a saying that although guy has lost his core position this season, his performance has not been bad.

Field average 17 points, the overall shooting rate of 45.5%. In addition to the occasional more waves in some competitions, there is basically no big problem, generally speaking, there are no flaws. This year, when link and guy are connected, the Grizzlies usually have a very strong offense.

It's not easy to see that link and guy can basically coexist, but suddenly such a thing happened.

A scorer who averaged 17 points a game said no again. However, compared with last year, guy's injury this year puts more pressure on Hollins and Grizzlies.

Last year, Randolph had the best season of grizzly's career. After guy was injured, Randolph transformed into a super insider, 20 + 10 for him as easy as chopping melons and vegetables. Even in the playoffs, Randolph is unstoppable.

Hollins is also relying on the black and white bear based system, in the absence of guy, the Grizzlies to the western finals.

But this year, Randolph's decline due to poor health was visible to the naked eye. It's hard to ask him to come forward and kill like he did last year.

To put it bluntly, Randolph is no longer reliable this season. Grizzlies want to go further, they must find another fulcrum outside guy and Randolph!

So, as the ESPN report said, "the Grizzlies are now on link's shoulders."

Link this season is the Grizzlies focus on training, but has not been too core play. Randolph, guy and link, it's hard to say who's the core. When it comes to Grizzlies, people think of a "let you peel off" lineup, not one person.

But now it's different. Link has no way to "thrive" behind Randolph and guy. He has to stand up now and accept the most severe test before he is fully grown up. Especially on the offensive side, at this stage, link is the only scorer for the Grizzlies.

Randolph is down, Gasol is more defensive than attacking, Tony Allen's skill tree is all crooked, Conley has never been a point guard... Only link, he will be the core of every game's attack.

What does it mean to be the real center of attack? It means that a player will suffer the most rigorous defense, the most vicious fouls. Of course, it will also bear the greatest pressure.

It's not the same as occasionally scoring 40 points, triple doubles and occasionally 30 + points. Being at the core of the attack means you have to make sure that every game has a strong firepower output. That is to say, the games that link only scored more than 10 points this season are unqualified under the current standard.

This is the difference between being the core and not being the core.

If the Grizzlies meet Waterloo this year, link will undoubtedly become the target of people's fighting.

The strength of a player is not just a matter of data. His leading achievement is the hard index to prove his strength.

Lefoy is 30 + 20 in the Timberwolves, but no one will think of him as a super inside player. Why? Because the Timberwolves can't even get into the playoffs. The team's performance is not good, your data is not convincing.

It's the same with link, who can make the all star debut when everyone's good, and he can be praised.

But now suddenly give you a team to take, and put all the pressure on you to carry, you can still play?

The grizzly bear will go further in the league. But if the Grizzlies end up out early, he will bear all the consequences.

This is competitive sports, how much honor and praise, we must bear the test.

You pay and your harvest, are in direct proportion.

It's just that under the pressure of public opinion, most people don't think much of link.

, the dream bubble of the Grizzlies has been shattered. The repeated injuries of Rudi Gaye will become the last straw to crush Grizzlies.

"Let link lead the team to fight in the west? Come on, he's only been so good this season because he's playing with Zach and guy

"Now the whole world will know how ridiculous it is to be link's all star starting striker."

"Zach and guy have helped link block most of the pressure and trouble, but now that link is going to face it all on his own, to be honest, I don't think he can withstand it."

After the training, link sat in the dressing room after the shower, his mobile phone full of these questioning reports.

But link didn't bite his teeth and stomp and say I'm going to hit you sabies in the face.

Because he does have pressure, he doesn't know what he can do. This season, link scored only 10 points in his lowest scoring game. With guy and Randolph sharing the scoring pressure, link only scored 10 points without any problem.But if an attacking core scores 10 points... Think about what a disaster it is. It's like Durant scoring 10 points in a game. Do you think he does well?

"What's the matter? You're not going to be scared by the spray, are you? " Tony Allen came out of the shower and saw link sullen, so he sat down next to him.

"Afraid? Of course not. You know, I never care what the media says about me. But...

"but what?"

"I'm afraid the team's performance is going down because of me." Link clenched his fist and his joints turned white with force. It's not easy for a man to confess what he is afraid of in front of others.

"Fool."

"Ha!" Link is confused. Why is it different from the script? At this time, as an old man, shouldn't you make an impassioned and inspiring speech? Shouldn't we join hands to reach the peak of life? How come you are such a fool to finish.

"Even if the team's performance really drops, it's not your fault alone. And I trust your ability. Not only me, but all of us, are willing to put the ball in your hands and let you handle the attack. If you think about it from another angle, on the one hand, Rudy's leaving makes you feel more pressure to score. But on the other hand, you also get more resources and more mobile phone meetings. Don't think so much, boy. Try to do what you have to do, and the rest will come to fruition. "

With that, Tony Allen changed his clothes and left. The empty dressing room, only link is left alone.

Tony Allen is not indifferent to link, but he knows very well that one day a man has to let go of other people's hands and walk his own way.

Link is a sophomore, and according to Tony Allen's expectations, it's time for him to let go of others' hands and learn to move forward on his own.

All star starting forward, but not so vulnerable.

At 9:00 p.m., when the FedEx stadium security inspection patrol, he found that the training hall is still making a "bang" sound caused by the collision of basketball and hardwood floor.

The security guard smiles, believing that the Memphis grizzly won't fall. Last season, Randolph came forward, and this season, link will not let them down...
