Jannis Antetokounmpo and Link.

Apart from having the same manager, these are two irrelevant players.

But in fact, Antetokounmpo has always admired Link, who is under the same manager as him.

The story of Link growing from an unknown undraft to a league superstar has always been the driving force that inspired Antetokounmpo to make continuous progress.

Although the two have not been very good for their personal relationship, they often have private communication.

After the Grizzlies were eliminated by the Thunder in the Western Conference Finals last season, Antetokounmpo even said, "No matter who wins the championship in the end, he is not the best player in the league, because the best player in the league wears the Grizzlies jersey."

Antetokounmpo's ability to say such words is enough to support Link and the Grizzlies, which is enough to prove his respect and love for Link.

But at that time, Antetokounmpo was still an inconspicuous little character and he didn't care much about his words.

This young man who can't shoot three-pointers, averages less than 20 points per game, and fails to lead the team to the playoffs, has only some reputation among a small number of fans.

When it comes to the Bucks, the most discussed people are always the second-place winner in 2014, Jabarri Parker, Greg Monroe, Middleton, who is increasingly superstar, head coach Jason Kidd, and even Larry Sanders, who has claimed to be art and gave up basketball.

Jannis Antetokounmpo? Many people don’t know how to read this name at all.

But this year, although the season has just begun, the name Jannis Antetokounmpo has been reported more and more frequently and is becoming more and more well-known.

Because this year, this "Greek monster" officially began to rage in the alliance!

On October 26, the Bucks opened their home game against the Hornets.

Although the Bucks eventually lost the ball, Antetokounmpo scored 31 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists in the first game, and the shooting percentage was as high as 61.9%. The Hornets were unable to fight back!

The young man's motivation is impressive.

And this game seemed to have allowed the Bucks and the "Greek Monster" to unseal their seals, making them unstoppable in the subsequent games.

On October 29, Antetokounmpo contributed 21 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists. At the last moment, after teammates Jabbarri and Parker missed a key shot, Jannis stretched out his long arm and easily took offensive rebounds among the Nets players, completing the final score!

In the third game against the Pistons, Antetokounmpo scored 17 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists. He was still fearless against the basket guarded by Drummond and played quite comprehensively. In the end, he also led the Bucks to win the game.

On November 1, against the Eastern Conference powerhouse Pacers, Antetokounmpo scored 33 points, 7 rebounds, 9 assists, 2 blocks and 2 steals with a super high shooting percentage of 61.1%, completely suppressing Paul George, the long-standing "General of Inn City"!

In this game, the Bucks finally won 125 to 107!

If Antetokounmpo was just a small fight before, then this game against Pacers and George would have really made a name for itself.

In the minds of most fans, the Pacers are definitely considered a strong team. They are one of the few teams in the East that can compete with James.

Paul George is also considered one of the best small forwards in the league and was compared with Link and James.

But no one expected that the Milwaukee Bucks, which had no sense of existence before, would beat the Pacers so miserably.

At this point, the Bucks achieved three consecutive victories after losing to the Hornets in the opening game. Moreover, Antetokounmpo performed very well in these three games.

The record of 3 wins and 1 loss also makes the Milwaukee Bucks ranked among the top in the East.

This summer, the young Greek man who just renewed his contract with 100 million yuan for 4 years and 100 million yuan, told the world that the Bucks were not mistaken.

Looking back now, the growth trajectory of this "Greek monster" is extremely clear.

In the 13-14 season, he was still a rookie who was ignorant and had extremely poor English speaking. He was 19 years old 28 days away from being 19 years old that season. That season he was the youngest player in the league. As the team's "scrap" he did not get any chance.

In the 14-15 season, his free throws were improved by a level and his shooting percentage increased by 6 percentage points. He began to become the team's stable scoring point, and his contribution height was from 2.08 to 2.11 meters, and the team's winning rate exceeded 50%.

In the 15-16 season, he began to occasionally appear in the top ten balls. People found that this young man who was always tirelessly running often could put the ball in under the surround of three people.

Until this year, the "Greek Monster" officially became a famous player. He became a player who can defeat the opponent on his own, and he became the well-deserved core of Milwaukee!

The 2.21-meter arm span makes the defense line he cast is almost impossible to break through.

The continued height growth after entering the league has now reached almost 2.13 meters!

But with the height of the center, he also has the dribbling and speed of a defender, which makes him in the third position and makes his counterattack unstoppable.

At the same time, he is a big hand monster with an average palm length of 12 cm and a length of 30.5 cm, which allows him to always complete various incredible attacks. You should know that Leonard, who is famous for his big hand, has a "only" 28.6 cm long!

Of course, his explosive athletic ability to jump and block or dunk instantly and his huge skeleton covering his muscles are even more impressive.

This guy doesn't show much skill on the court, his shooting is not accurate, and he is more like he is playing basketball with intuition.

His monster body seemed to be destined to be born for basketball.

People joke that when you watch Antetokounmpo play, you can’t learn anything because he relies on talent!

But even so, he could not stop him even in the NBA alliance where geniuses and all of them were talented.

And the most exaggerated thing is that this guy is not 22 years old yet! His upper limit is simply incalculable!

After four games, everyone admitted that Milwaukee returned to the ranks of strong teams and Antetokounmpo became a player worth watching!

Even many media have put news with such titles on the front page - "Jennis Antetokounmpo, James and Link, the next facade of the league!"

Finally, after the "Greek Monster" ravaged four games, the Grizzlies and the Bucks were about to meet in the game.

Everyone wants to know whether Link can block the impact of this "monster" after George.

Can Link, a player who once daunted the entire league, stop Antetokounmpo from continuing to destroy?

In front of Antetokounmpo, a forward with an extremely perverted figure, will Link be forced to do his best?

One team has just won four consecutive victories, while the other team has achieved a three-game winning streak.

A player releases his talents every night and beats every opponent to the point of failure.

A player has nowhere to release his abilities because he can't meet an opponent that can match him.

Now, they finally met!

Antetokounmpo vs Link’s news dominated the covers of all sports websites!

Not only fans and media are looking forward to this game, but the "Greek Monster" himself also can't help but feel the urge to play.

In the training day before the game, Antetokounmpo said in an interview, "I am very looking forward to fighting with Link. He has always been my idol and I will do my best to defeat him! That's right, I want to win, I think I should win too."
