888: Change the rules because Link is too strong?

In 1968, Wilt Chamberlain won triple-double data in the matches from March 8 to March 20, with a total of nine games.

Chamberlain killed all sides and set a continuous triple-double record in one fell swoop.

This record has been sealed since 1968, just like his single-game 100 points and 20,000, no one can reach it.

But on December 19, in the match between the Grizzlies and the Bulls, Wilt Chamberlain, a record that had been sealed for 46 years, was finally tied.

"For the first time in 46 years! Link scored a triple-double in nine consecutive games, creating a miracle!"

"Mirotic's 6-point three-pointer is still difficult to save his master. Link scored another triple-double to establish his position!"

"It's only a matter of time before Jordan is surpassed? Link is writing the history of NBA!"

The crazy media reports made Link win triple-double data in nine consecutive games.

Mirotic made 6 of 6 three-pointers, but he was only mentioned occasionally.

The Spaniard could only admit that he was unlucky. This was his chance to make his mark, but in the end, it became an existence that set off Link's greatness.

Taking advantage of the voting champion of the first round of the All-Star Game, Link became one of the people with the most consecutive triple-doubles in NBA history.

After this wave of operations, Link's All-Star votes will probably continue to soar.

Arenas joked when he was a guest on a show, "When I was still playing basketball, the first thing I did when I got up every day was to vote for myself. But when I saw Yao Ming's votes, I gave up. Now, other players in the league are probably in the same mood as me. However, both Link and Yao deserve the position of the vote king. If you haven't played against Link, you won't know how magical he is."

Arenas is still very friendly to Link. Last year, he competed with Link for three points, which completely won the respect of the "General".

The whole world is in a craze for voting for Link. People believe that Link can even break the record for the highest NBA votes set by Howard in 2009 this year.

However, as Link thought, some media once again tirelessly brought out the element of the Chinese market.

"Yao squeezed out O'Neal's All-Star starting center position in the first year of entering the league, but Yao's strength was not comparable to Shaq at that time. It is obvious that Chinese players are suspected of 'cheating' in this regard."

"Does anyone remember the farce that Yi almost squeezed out Garnett to become an All-Star starter? Such a thing is happening again in Link."

"Is Link capable? There is no doubt that he is very strong. But he is really strong enough to surpass LeBron's votes. Is James twice? This is very doubtful. I know Link's nationality is different from Yao, but this still cannot stop the enthusiasm of Chinese fans."

These reports of singing opposites have appeared again. Almost every time a Chinese player's All-Star gets too high a vote, they will come out and clamor once.

In the past, Yi Jianlian almost surpassed Garnett, which was indeed a farce. After all, Yi Jianlian averaged only 9.7 points and 6 rebounds in the NBA at that time, so it was obviously not appropriate for him to play as an All-Star starter.

But Link believes that at least he and Yao Ming deserve it.

Why would you be questioned if you break the first round of votes? If it was James who broke the record, would these media still have so many questions?

Could it be that I am and Yao Ming both have yellow skin and dark hair?

The league does not want Chinese fans to interfere with the "fairness" of the All-Star vote, but Chinese fans are also part of the fans. Why are Chinese fans' votes not counted as votes?

Link knew that the league wanted to break the pattern of ruling all-stars. Of course, they also urgently needed a "local hero".

In addition to her skin color, Link knew very well that his personality might not actually fit the league's appetite.

Link is now the league's facade, but it is not an official favorite.

He was dirty, talked a lot, had a lot of slutty words, and was full of personality. He also criticized reporters from time to time, which caused a very bad impact. Last season, Link was fined a lot by the league for this.

What the league needs is "good gentlemen" like James, Durant, and Curry, and this group of people needs to maintain the positive image of the league.

And Link is a completely unbiased "anti-hero". In the eyes of the league, such people are not conducive to publicity.

In NBA history, there is not only Link, a superstar who is treated differently by the league because he is too "naughty".

Iverson had a street hip-hop fashion trend in the league that year, but the league issued a dress code that stipulated that players must wear formal clothes to attend all team activities.

Anthony was also the favorite of the league and was popular among the league. However, after the serious fight in 2006, Anthony's character changed suddenly, and the "melon" became a "social melon". The league thus abandoned Anthony's appearance and praised James with all his might.

With these lessons from the past, Link is not difficult to predict the current situation.

But Link didn't care about these opposition voices. Anyway, after the second round of voting results are released in a few days, all doubts will be self-defeating.

But Link didn't expect that the afternoon after the game with the Bulls, the league actually intervened in the All-Star voting!

It seems that they really need a brand new appearance.

"Reform of the All-Star Voting System?" Link looked at the documents in front of him and looked up at Jogel.

"I'm afraid yes, it seems that your super high vote count this time has begun to attract the attention of the league." Jogel spread his hands.

He had just received a fax from Chris Wallace, so he immediately informed Link to take a look.

The league has officially issued a document to change the rules, requiring the general managers and bosses of 30 teams in the league to vote.

Once half of the number of people agreed, the rules will be changed and will be officially implemented next season.

The amendment plan for the All-Star voting rules clearly stipulates that the All-Star starter will no longer be completely selected by fans, and both the media and players will have the right to vote, and the proportion will be large.

The document also wrote in detail the conversion formula for future All-Star voting: All-Star voting score = (ranking of fan voting division position * 2 + ranking of media voting division position + number of player voting division position)/4. The lower the total score, the higher the final ranking.

In other words, players and media each account for 25% of the decision-making power.

To put it nicely, this is to ensure that voting is fairer and prevent fans from voting blindly.

But fools all know that this is actually to curb the huge base of Chinese fans and to curb Link's continued dominance in the future.

In order to allow the alliance to create a brand new facade, it provides convenience!

"It's so fucking disgusting. He even kept saying that the All-Stars are a feast for fans. Now he is doing such a thing..." Link shook his head. It was not that he couldn't bear to be the position of the vote king, but that he felt uncomfortable being maliciously targeted.

"But then again, I'm forced the league to modify the rules because it's too strong, right? Hahaha."

"Uh... that's right." Jogel was speechless. He thought Link would be very angry, but he didn't expect Link to take this as an honor.

"It doesn't matter, they can do whatever they like. Maybe after changing the rules, I will be the first one? Then they will be even more embarrassed." Link shrugged and handed the documents back to Jogel.

"Well... the new rules may not necessarily pass. Chris and Pera have decided to vote for a veto, and they are firmly on your side."

"Okay, it's okay. No matter what, they still have to watch me become the ticket king this year. Let's go back first, and there will be a competition tomorrow." Link stood up and said goodbye to Jogel.

Mr. Joke wanted to use some special means to restrict Link, but he didn't know that some superstars could not be restricted in any case.

The joint defense and three-second rules failed to limit O'Neal, and the 5-second back-on-on-off-1 still could not stop Duncan and Dirk from killing all over the world.

Link left the All-Star voting reform behind.

If you have that thought, it’s better to think about how to break Chamberlain’s record.
