On August 10, the Bobcats' pre-season training camp officially began.

On the first day, Johi did not arrange any training sessions, but let Elvin Gentry supervise and lead all the players to a pre-season fitness test.

Then, he called out to Anfernee Hardaway.

Anfernee Hardaway, who was wearing the No. 1 training uniform, looked puzzled, he followed Qiao Hai to the side of the court, and then stood in place.

Not far away, Anfernee Hardaway's teammates have begun their fitness tests.

And here with him, Qiao Hai picked up a basketball from the ball frame and handed it to him.

Anfernee Hardaway looked puzzled, and then he heard a question from Qiao Hai: "Anferne, are you still injured?" ”

Anfernee Hardaway shook his head: "I'm already healed, last season, I only missed 8 games. ”

"So, how much speed and explosiveness do you have left?"

The second question, Anfernee Hardaway was stunned, how much of his speed and explosiveness is left, Hardaway knows very well that now he can be said to have almost no explosiveness at all.

Qiao Hai already understood, but he still pointed to the side of the court: "Use your fastest speed, 3/4 sprint, let's start." ”

Anfernee Hardaway paused hesitantly, but then he nodded.

Then, after the running position, he jumped straight out.

Qiao Hai held the stopwatch in his hand, and after Anfernee Hardaway ran to the designated position, he pinched it sharply, and then looked up and said to Hardaway: "3.58 seconds, handwriting, may not be accurate, but the difference is not big." ”

Anfernee Hardaway nodded, he was already aware of something.

"Anfernee, this data means that your speed and explosiveness are only equivalent to ordinary forward players, and if you play point guard, you will not have an advantage at all."

Qiao Hai still pointed out Hardaway's current problem unmistakably.

Then, he continued: "So, Anferne, there are only two paths before you right now. ”

Anfernee Hardaway didn't speak, but he put on a look of eagerness and looked at Qiao Hai.

"Number one, transition coaching, and then prepare to retire."

Hearing the first thing Qiao Hai said, Anfernee Hardaway clenched his fists, obviously, he was unwilling to retire like this.

But at the same time, he also knows that he really has no advantage over those young point guards.

If he can't find his second way, then all that awaits him is to sit on the bench for two seasons and then retire.

So, Anfernee Hardaway stared at Qiao Hai deadly, and he wanted to know what the second path in Qiao Hai's mouth was.

"The second way, transformation."

These words popped out of Qiao Hai's mouth, and Anfernee Hardaway frowned: "Transformation? How to transform. ”

Qiao Hai quickly explained: "In the new season, I will let you be a substitute, your position is no longer a point guard, you will be the team's forward, the number three and the number four, both positions, you may play, in your new position, your task is to cut in the air, score under the basket, and pass the ball." ”

Anfernee Hardaway's face didn't have too many expressions, however, he didn't directly say anything against it, which showed that Qiao Hai's words were listened to.

Qiao Hai suddenly asked another question: "By the way, your passing organization ability should not be lost, right?" ”

This time, Hardaway didn't pause and nodded his head immediately, the injury would only affect his body, not his technique.

Not only that, but because of the injury, he lost his explosiveness, and he had to train harder and then improve his skills.

Now Anfernee Hardaway, the skills of ball control, organization and passing have become more and more profound, the so-called older the more demonic, may be talking about him.

"Then let's do it in our new location." Qiao Hai patted Hardaway on the shoulder, and then, as if he remembered something: "By the way, there are still a lot of young wings in the team, you can also help teach them and let them pass the ball well." ”

'Next season, our new tactics, passing is very important.

……

Anfernee Hardaway's positioning problem for the new season has been solved, and a stone in Qiao Hai's heart has also fallen to the ground, a star player with an annual salary of $14 million, will play its residual heat in the Bobcats.

Then in the afternoon, Qiao Hai got the physical test reports of all the players.

He glanced at it a few times, and probably got an idea.

Then, Qiao Hai got a stack of training plans through the system, because of the tactics of the new season, this training plan is very focused on physical training, followed by shooting, and finally passing.

……

On the second day of the training camp, Qiao Hai distributed this training plan.

"From today, our training camp has to start, first of all, we have to have a high-intensity physical training camp, the coach is responsible for supervision, all the players must not slack off!"

So, from the second day of the training camp, the Bobcats began their high-intensity physical training.

An hour-long run in the morning, and the same in the afternoon, interspersed with high-intensity shooting training, the intensity is naturally very high.

……

The Bobcats' 15 players, with the exception of two rookies, all played for different teams last season, and each team has its own style of play and training style.

Like Qiao Hai, the pre-season training camp directly starts high-intensity physical training, which is still very rare in this league.

In the entire league, the Mavericks may be the only ones who do this kind of high-intensity physical training, but none of the Bobcats' 15 players are from the Mavericks.

As a result, none of the 15 players have experienced such intense physical training.

At first, they didn't feel anything, but after five or six days, they found that Qiao Hai had no intention of stopping such high-intensity physical training.

The young players are okay, they can still rely on their willpower and persevere, but some of the older players in the team quickly have opinions.

……

Jahidi White, nicknamed the Buffalo.

At the beginning of his career, he relied on a big body to get a survival environment in the NBA's interior and played good statistics.

Then, he got a contract with the Wizards that wasn't too small.

But because of his huge body, his ankle could not bear the weight of his body, and then he was seriously injured and missed most of the season.

During his absence, his already huge size grew bigger and bigger day by day.

Fat all over, his performance got worse and worse, and in the end, he was traded by the Wizards to the Suns, then waived by the Suns, and finally came to the Bobcats.

For Qiao Hai's high-intensity physical training, Jahidi White was the most dissatisfied because he had reached the limit and could not support it.

After dissatisfaction, on the seventh day of physical training, Jahidi White found Qiao Hai directly.
