"Link: I'll Win Another Ten Straight!"
"Grizzlies Superstar: Setting a Historical Record Isn't That Hard."
"Kevin Durant: Link Is Just Too Arrogant."
Although the Grizzlies' game against the Bucks had produced plenty of spectacular moments, the major media outlets were still talking about Link and Durant, and the feud between the Grizzlies and the Thunder, the day after the game ended.
Of course, the media had basically twisted Link's words. Or rather, they had deliberately twisted them.
Link had never said that winning ten straight would be easy, and the reporters had understood perfectly well. Whether they were willing to report the truth, however, was another matter entirely.
Overnight, the media helped Link raise a flag proclaiming that he would "definitely win another ten straight." Without a doubt, fans all over the world were waiting to see the Grizzlies make fools of themselves.
True, the Grizzlies had been unstoppable this season, crushing most of the teams in the league.
But even for the Grizzlies, a ten-game winning streak was by no means easy to achieve. It was not something they could simply claim whenever they wanted. Staying energized for all ten games and making sure nothing went wrong sometimes took more than just enough ability.
Over ten games, nobody knew what accidents or random events might occur. One slight misstep, and Link's goal would fall apart.
As a result, countless media outlets began analyzing the Grizzlies' chances of winning ten straight. Some reporters had even started drafting articles mocking Link in advance. They certainly would not miss such a good opportunity to bash him.
Surprisingly, though, the famous Bill Simmons did not say a word this time. Maybe he was still troubled by the Slam Dunk Contest. Or perhaps he was too immersed in women's clothing to pull himself out.
