He noticed he wasn’t attacking rebounds. And the form of his shot was disjointed and his attempts off the mark. “It was eye opening,’’ the 7-foot-1 Leonard remembered. “I was making it so difficult on myself.’’ The regular-season finale was a microcosm of his frustrating fifth season in Portland, when he averaged 5.4 points, 3.2 rebounds and shot 38.5 percent from the field. 表现很差的例行赛数据 After the film session, Hanlen -- whose resume includes training NBA players Bradley Beal, Andrew Wiggins, Jordan Clarkson, Joel Embiid and Dwight Howard to name a few -- developed a plan. “It was a plan to prepare him for this kind of ‘New Meyers,’’’Hanlen said. Hanlen 为小贾制定新的训练计划 The major bullet points of the rebuild were to tighten Leonard’s shooting mechanics; get him to play lower and less upright; and to develop a plan on how to approach various scenarios, such as when defenders rush at him at the three-point line. 改善投篮机制，模拟比赛场上情境 “But the first area we had to attack was the cloud that was holding him back – his confidence,’’ Hanlen said. “When he first arrived in the summer I asked him ‘From 1-to-100, how confident are you in your game?’ 重要的是恢复小贾的自信心 “He said, ‘If I’m being honest, probably around 30,’’’ Hanlen said. Hanlen 要小贾做自我信心评估，小贾自己说只有 30 分 Fast forward four months to today, less than a week away from the start of training camp. Leonard says his confidence level is “in the 80s” and Hanlen says in all his years of working with NBA players, Leonard’s progress is remarkable. 四个月後，小贾自我评估已经有 80 分，Hanlen 也认为小贾有显着进步 “From a confidence level, it’s one of the biggest jumps I’ve seen a player make in a summer,’’ Hanlen said. “And from a skill level standpoint, Meyers elevated himself multiple levels.’’ 自信心提高，技术也升级 Apparently, Leonard and Hanlen aren’t the only ones noticing. Leonard this summer took part in the renowned NBA pickup games at UCLA two or three times a week, and Hanlen said several of his clients approached him about the 7-footer from Portland. “I was getting compliments from NBA players like ‘Meyers is a beast … I don’t know why Portland is not using him,’’ Hanlen said. “Other players, they were bragging to me about him.’’ Leonard said those games included players such as LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony , DeMar DeRozan, and one week the entire Oklahoma City team played. 小贾例行参加UCLA的训练营，一堆人为小贾喝采 “I was out there as confident as I’ve ever been – hitting shots … down in the post … and having a plan of what I wanted to do,’’ he said. “I had a couple different people tell me they heard things, stuff like ‘If Meyers plays like this he will be just fine … it will be eye opening … ‘’ 小贾自我感觉良好，能里能外，人家说继续这样打前景看好 Leonard stopped short and retreated. He is wary of what he says these days, knowing all too well how much of a divisive force he is among the Blazers’ fan base, and how many “remakes” he has supposedly undergone during his five seasons in Portland. 小贾不再自我怀疑迷惘 Both he and Hanlen agree that the proof will be in his performance this season. “I will say this: This is the most laser-focused I have been in my life. For sure,’’ Leonard said. “I no longer have thoughts in head of ‘Do I really belong?’ – I no longer have that and never will again. I’ve proven that to myself.’’ That confidence was born out of 6:15 a.m. wakeup calls for daily workouts with Hanlen in Los Angeles. The biggest changes: Hanlen has changed Leonard’s shooting mechanics, most of which deals with balance. He found that Leonard would often lean back on his shots and/or have his feet to close together. So now, Leonard focuses on his shoulders being forward and establishing a wide base with his feet. 小贾投篮机制最大改变在改善"平衡" Also, he has trained Leonard to play lower, which allows him to move better, both offensively and defensively. 以及降低重心，有助於攻守两端 Finally, Hanlen developed what he calls a “plan” for Leonard in how to thrive within the Blazers’ system. “He has to be able to play within that system, but before he would set a screen and then float around the perimeter,’’ Hanlen said. “He didn’t have a purpose.’’ Hanlen 计划为小贾更融入阿拓体系，而不是只做单挡和投外线 So they worked on a series of options – pick-and-pop … a dive to the basket where he worked on finishing with both hands … a short roll to the basket … a one-dribble and attack the basket. 练习了 Pick&Pop、双手都能上篮、短距离空切 “That way he can keep defenses off balance and open more space for Damian and CJ while becoming more of a threat himself, instead of just drifting around the perimeter,’’ Hanlen said. 相信小贾能为 小李和CJ 拉出空间 To accentuate Leonard’s new skills, Hanlen wanted Leonard to lose weight. “Today in the NBA, thin is in,’’ Hanlen said. “You not only move better, you recover quicker.’’ Leonard played between 262 and 265 pounds last season and initially thought he wanted to bulk to 270 pounds this season. But with the urging of Hanlen to lose weight to become more mobile, Leonard says he is at 257.5 pounds as he enters training camp. 现在的NBA需要的是敏捷型长人，所以小贾减重了 “I feel great,’’ Leonard said. “This is the healthiest I’ve been since I’ve been in Portland.’’ Now comes the hard part: proving it. The Blazers’ have a stable of big men with Jusuf Nurkic, Ed Davis, Noah Vonleh, Al-Farouq Aminu and a burgeoning rookie in Caleb Swanigan. In order to break into the roation, Leonard will have to earn it and he knows it will take time. “It’s going to be a day-by-day thing,’’ Leonard said. “A lot of people know in the back of their mind that I can play. Did I show that last year? Occasionally, but not really. So gaining the players’ trust to throw me the ball, gaining Coach Stotts’ trust to put me in to help the team win … I’m going to have to keep chipping at that. And I’m sure there will be bumps in the road. 接下来小贾就必须证明他能击败其他竞争者取得上场时间，让队友和教练对他有信心 “In the meantime, I don’t want to get too far ahead of myself,’’ Leonard said. “It was a good summer. I’m in a really good place. And I just want to continue to do the right things.’’ 小贾不自视甚高，只是持续做对的事 -- 很久没翻译，但为了可怜又可恨的某人..... 希望不是像小李又在喊要加强防守的狼来了 还是增加卖相的洗白文章，真心希望你能振作啊！！ --
