During the All-Star break, Joe also flew back to Vancouver from Los Angeles.

That day, he parted with Michkupchak, and Michkupchak also said: "Buying and selling is not friendship." ”

I hope Qiao Hai will not forget their friendship because of the Lakers, which has awakened Qiao Hai, the league is full of friends, and you can't walk without friends, so Qiao Hai also said sincerely: "Mitch, I know, but Chauncy is indeed not tradable, he is the future leader of the Grizzlies." ”

Mitch Kupchak made a final effort and could only express understanding.

Back in Vancouver, Joe Hai followed the All-Star weekend.

On the first day of the Rookie Challenge, although the Grizzlies had three people playing, they were all accompaniment, and there was no chance, only Mike Bibby played more than 20 minutes, got 16 points and 6 assists, and the final Rookie Challenge MVP was also won by Elton Brand, who was killed.

The next day's slam dunk contest, Maddie participated.

He won the preliminaries by an absolute advantage, and in the finals, Maddie made a mistake in the first dunk and finally lost to Steve Francis and missed the dunk king.

The Grizzlies did not participate in the other games.

On the last day, the All-Star Game, the East and West War was in the fourth quarter, the score in the first three quarters was scorching, and the Western Army only led by 2 points, but at the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Western Army played a wave of 8:0 offensive waves, laying the victory in one fell swoop.

Phil Jackson coached the Western Army, O'Neal naturally got the most opportunities, and Duncan played efficiently, and finally, in the first All-Star Game in the post-Jordan era, Duncan and O'Neal teamed up to lift the MVP trophy.

As a result, the All-Star Weekend ended, and the Grizzlies went to the four big men, and only Raheem did not go to the starters, and the result was all accompaniment.

Since February, the Grizzlies have not lost a single game and still maintained a complete victory, and with the winning streak in January, the Grizzlies have won 11 in a row.

In terms of the ranking of the West, it also got rid of the Lakers by one win and ranked first in the West.

As a result, the No. 1 team in the West, the All-Star Game was all accompaniment, and the local media in Vancouver were all kinds of grievances, and Maddie, who was the king of the Western Ticket, was also unhappy after returning to Vancouver, and Phil Jackson didn't give Maddie a chance to perform at all.

You know, he's the king of the West.

On the other hand, Carter, who is the king of the Eastern vote, if it wasn't for the loss in the East, the final MVP would be Vince Carter.

This contrast is strong, and Maddie is naturally dissatisfied.

The disgruntled Maddie returned to Vancouver with a change in mindset and a lack of seriousness in training.

In his previous life, Maddie had a problem with laziness, and Maddie was at the peak of the Magic, but he was really well-known to fans of the Celestial Empire when he was partnered with Yao Ming, and Maddie at that time began to work hard, and he was lazy when he could be lazy in training, and his state declined seriously, and later former Rocket head coach Jeff Van Gundy also criticized Maddy's shooting training.

Now that Maddie is playing tricks under Qiao Hai's nose, Qiao Hai naturally has to take care of it.

In the daily training of the Grizzlies, all the players are training according to Qiao Hai's training plan.

The sound of banging basketball is endless, under normal circumstances, Qiao Hai would not appear on the sidelines and stare at it, but today seems to be different, Qiao Hai put on sunglasses and has been standing on the sidelines, Byron Scott, who is always in charge of training, walked up to Qiao Hai and whispered a few words.

"Joe, there's nothing wrong with today's training, but Tracy may not be able to finish it."

Immediately, Byron Scott handed Qiao Hai a training diary, which recorded all the items that the players should train, and the completion of the follow-up, if it was completed, the coach would tick it behind.

Qiao Hai turned directly to Maddie's page.

The Grizzlies have had two days of training days after returning from All-Star Weekend, and Maddie failed to complete his mission yesterday, and it is still the same today, seeing that the day's training is coming to an end, Maddie has only completed three workouts, a half-court switchback run, a two-person back-to-back singles practice and a three-person passing practice.

Now he is throwing three points on the court, and in the training plan, Maddie has to shoot 800 three-pointers a day, and he has to shoot for 2 hours, and now he has only shot for less than 1 hour, that is to say, if Maddie wants to complete this training, he has to add at least half an hour to the shift.

Looking at the next two hours of mid-range shooting practice and half an hour of ball-holding sprint practice, even if Maddie works hard all of a sudden, he will have to add three hours to the shift.

The Grizzlies finish training at 6 p.m., and with the addition of a three-hour shift, it will be 9 p.m.

Qiao Hai flipped through the previous day's training diary, the previous day's training, Maddie also had to complete six trainings, including a full-court run, a three-person blocking and pick-and-roll offensive practice, a three-person passing practice, 800 three-point shots, 800 mid-range shots and a ball-holding sprint practice.

But Maddie only completed the warm-up run at the beginning of the training day, as well as the subsequent three-on-one blocking and three-on-one passing practice, and only half of the 800 three-pointers he made individually, so there was no record.

Qiao Hai thought about something, thought about it, turned around and went to the office, and before leaving, he told Byron Scott to call him at the end of the training and not let Maddie leave.

Byron Scott's expression was strange, he knew that Qiao Hai was going to clean up Maddie, who was not serious about training.

Qiao Hai reflexively went to the office, he pondered for a week, and the ten primary potential improvement cards finally figured out a way to use them.

He first left three cards for Maddie, originally he was going to use them directly, but now Maddie's lazy attitude makes Qiao Hai feel that it is not worth it, when Maddie changes back, when he will use the three primary potential improvement cards he kept.

Then he gave Rahim four primary potential improvement cards, Rahim's potential value is 86 points, and the current total score is also 86 points, and with four primary potential improvement cards, Rahim's potential value is 90 points.

Qiao Hai has his own rating for this system, 95 to 99 is a superstar, 90 to 95 is a superstar, 85 to 90 is an all-star, 80 to 85 is an ordinary star, 75 to 80 is an ordinary starter, 70 to 75 is the main rotation, and below 70 is the bench water cooler player.

Therefore, Qiao Hai wants to increase Rahim's potential value, and if he wants to improve, he will increase it by four points, so that Rahim can reach a new level.

Raheem, who originally had a potential value of 86 points, was an All-Star power forward, and after raising 4 points, Raheem is a superstar power forward, and Maddie is inside and out, and he will soon be able to realize his potential, which is an instant choice.

"Ding, are you sure to use the Primary Potential Booster Card on Sharif Abdulahim?"

Qiao Hai nodded to the firm.

Soon, there was another ding: "Please select the number to use." ”

Qiao Hai chose four: "Ding, use four primary potential boosting cards on Sharif Abdulahim, and if you use it successfully, Sharif Abdulahim's potential value will grow to 90 points." ”

After using it successfully, Qiao Hai breathed a sigh of relief.

Four were given to Rahim, and three were left to Maddie, so there were four more cards that could be used on the approximate body.

Without hesitation, Qiao Hai used four more junior potential cards.

"Ding, use four primary potential improvement cards for Wang Zhizhi, and if you use it successfully, Wang Zhizhi's potential value will grow to 74 points."

74 points, which means that it is only one step away from starting power forward.

The total rating is roughly 69 points, and the potential value is 74 points.

Raheem now has an overall rating of 86 points and a potential value of 90 points.

Both of these are enhancements, one that gives the Grizzlies a main rotation at the No. 4 position and the other that gives the Grizzlies a superstar power forward.

Qiao Hai flipped through the potential of other players, and the future Grizzlies starting lineup will be composed of Chauncy Billups with a potential of 88 points, Maddy with a potential of 99 points, Sean Marion with a potential value of 90 points, Raheem with a potential value of 90 points, and Brad Miller with a potential value of 83 points.

This lineup is enough to help the Grizzlies achieve their goal of winning the championship.

After studying the scores in the system for a while, Byron Scott dialed the landline phone in Qiao Hai's office, Qiao Hai didn't answer, hung up directly, and then closed the office door and walked downstairs.

There was an argument downstairs, and it should be Maddie who listened.

"Why can't I leave?"

Then, there was Byron Scott's voice: "Tracy, look at your training diary, today's training is not completed, even yesterday's training is not completed. ”

"But the time has come."

"It's time, but I haven't finished training for two days in a row, Tracy, you have a problem with your attitude."

Maddie was still trying to argue, but at this time, Qiao Hai had already gone downstairs and walked to the middle of the crowd.

Qiao Hai didn't talk nonsense to Maddie, and first said to Byron Scott: "Byron, bring the training diary." ”

Byron Scott handed the training diary to Qiao Hai, Maddie didn't squeak anymore, he was a little afraid of Qiao Hai, Maddie knew where everything he was getting from now, his talent was on the one hand, and on the other hand, it came from the young Chinese coach in front of him.

Without Qiao Hai's full cultivation, there would be no current Maddie.

"Tracy, yesterday you didn't finish your 800 three-pointers, 800 mid-range shots, and a ball-holding sprint practice, and it's the same today, that's 1,600 three-pointers, 1,600 mid-range shots, and an hour of ball-holding sprint practice, go ahead, let's start, and you can't leave until you're done."

Qiao Hai spoke, Maddie drooped her eyelids, very helpless, agreed, turned her head and returned to the locker room.

But it was very bitter in his heart, 1600 three-pointers, 1600 mid-range shots, these two alone were enough for Maddie to work overtime for 4 hours, plus an hour of sprint practice with the ball, and a break on the way, it was now half past six, which meant that Maddie would have to work overtime until at least the early hours of the next morning.

There is a game tomorrow, Maddie wants to argue, but it was Qiao Hai who asked him to practice, Maddie wanted to argue but didn't dare, so in the end he could only honestly practice.

With 1,600 three-pointers, 1,600 mid-range shots, and an hour of sprint practice, Maddie practiced straight to one o'clock in the morning.

However, in the head coach's office on the second floor, the lights have been on, and Qiao Hai has always been there.

But Maddie didn't know that Joe Hay was there, and Byron Scott accompanied him through all the training, Maddie got off work, and Byron Scott tightened his clothes in the cold wind in February and left the arena.

In the end, Qiao Hai walked out of the arena in a flash, rode his bicycle, and returned to the apartment.

The next day, Qiao Hai was inevitably late.

Maddie wasn't late, but she also had two dark circles under her eyes.

Today the Grizzlies are going to play the Wizards, but Maddie is a little sluggish, obviously, yesterday's forced practice has made him a little tired.

Qiao Hai didn't care, he came a little late, but the preparations before the game were still carried out in an orderly manner.

The Wizards are not a formidable opponent, and they also played back-to-back games in Seattle yesterday, and even without Maddie, Qiao Hai is confident that he will lead the team to win the game.

Training on the day of the game is much simpler, with only a warm-up run and then a free shot.

Although Maddie was sluggish, when it came time to train, he was very serious, gritting his teeth and running in front of all the players when he ran the whole court, and his free shooting was not compromised at all.

Byron Scott, who supervised the training, was full of relief, Qiao Hai only intervened once, and Maddie reacted, and knew that he was too lazy in the recent training, if he continued to be so lazy, maybe Qiao Hai should give up on himself, so Maddie got serious again.

Qiao Hai also noticed Maddie's seriousness, but for the time being, the three primary potential improvement cards would not be used, and he was going to observe for a while.

That evening, the Grizzlies played the Wizards at home.

At the beginning of the game, Maddie was really not in good shape, and Qiao Hai had already expected this, so he got on Chauncy Billups early, and partnered with Billups and Mike Bibi to open the outside attack through outside double control.

The inside attack was supported by Rahim.

The strength of the Wizards is very poor, and the team is either a veteran with a serious decline in strength, such as Mitch Ridgemond, or an embarrassed newcomer, such as Richard Hamilton, who is currently at the bottom of the East, and coach Galced is on the verge of being sacked.

In this fight against the Grizzlies, Galhead fought hard to grab a victory, but he was restrained by Qiao Hai's adjustment before and after, and he was soon defeated.

In the end, the Grizzlies won 102-87, making it 12 consecutive wins in the regular season.

Two days later, the Grizzlies played the Timberwolves on the road.

At this time, the Grizzlies are still in first place in the West, while the Timberwolves are in sixth place in the West with a 27-22 record.

The first and sixth in the West, the Grizzlies were not in bad shape, and Qiao Hai suppressed Philip Sanders.

After four quarters, the Grizzlies continued their winning streak with a 103-91 run and remained undefeated in February.

In this game, Maddie also found his form, and Maddie, who had been training seriously for the past two days, was satisfied with it, and took time, Qiao Hai entered the system, ready to use up the three primary potential improvement cards left.

"Ding, are you sure to use the primary potential boosting card?"

Qiao Hai clicked OK, selected the object to use, and selected the number to use.

Finally, click OK again.

But soon, Ding said: "Ding, the use failed, the primary potential improvement card cannot be used on players with a potential value of more than 95 points." ”

"What?"

Qiao Haileng paused for a moment, and then he reacted.

There are still hidden restrictions on this primary potential improvement card, and Qiao Hai was depressed for a while.

But on closer inspection, it is.

95 points or more is a superstar, every time it rises a little, the strength is very different, from the perspective of future generations, Kobe Bryant, who has a potential value of 97 points, only has 5 crowns, 2 FMVPs and 1 regular season MVP in his entire career, while O'Neal's 4 crowns and 3 FMVPs and 1 regular season MVP at 98 points and are infinitely close to 99 points LeBron James has 3 crowns and 3 FMVPs and 4 regular season MVPs.

And Michael Jordan, the only 99-point player, has 6 championships, 6 FMVPs and 5 regular season MVPs in his entire career.

The difference is huge.

It's all at the entire level, how can the system let Qiao Hai use a small primary potential boosting card to elevate Maddie to the level of a god?

So, with a little thought, everything makes sense.

The Junior Potential Booster Card cannot be used on Maddie, but there may be Intermediate Potential Booster and Advanced Potential Booster cards in the future, and one of them will definitely be used on Maddie.

There are still 3 junior potential improvement cards left, Maddie can't use them, and Qiao Hai doesn't continue to keep them.

After thinking about it, two cards were given to Chaunsi Billups, so that Billups also had a potential value of 90 points, and one gave an approximate one, so that the potential value came to 75 points after roughly breaking through that step.
