Su Qun: Chauncey did not dare to arrange Yang Hansen to play in the preseason. He is good at supporting high positions and does not have a strong offensive presence.

October 17th: In the NBA preseason game, the Trail Blazers lost to the Jazz 129-132 in an away game. Yang Hansen left the game with six fouls in the final quarter.

In the whole game, Yang Hansen played 15 minutes, making 1 of 2 shots, 1 of 1 three-pointers, 0 free throws, 3 points, 1 assist, 1 steal, and 1 block. He also had 3 turnovers and 6 fouls, with a plus-minus value of -3.

Commentator Su Qun commented on this, part of which is as follows:

The Trail Blazers selected Yang Hansen with the 16th pick in the first round. They were interested in him as a 2.16-meter big man with very good golf intelligence and high-position support skills. At the same time, they also accepted his shortcomings as a 20-year-old young man, not to mention that he has never experienced the intensity of the NBA.

What is different from the summer league is that as it gets closer to the regular season, the intensity of the preseason is also very high. The head coach does not dare to arrange for Yang Hansen to play the high position support that he is good at, resulting in his weak presence when attacking. If the defensive weaknesses are exposed again, the coach will not give him too long.

Judging from the 4 preseason games, Billups wants to have Yang Hansen appear in the regular rotation lineup, but whether this rotation position can be maintained depends on Yang Hansen's next two aspects of make-up lessons:

First, the core strength must be improved, and strive to have enough confrontation strength under the basket, at least when grabbing defensive rebounds, he can make more contributions when choosing good positions.

Second, watch more NBA videos, expand your defensive vision, take both man and ball into consideration, and strive to make most of your position selections correct.

If the offense does not arrange tactics for you, then only by defending well can the coach feel that you can stay on the court, and the chances of offense will increase little by little.

The "rookie wall" is not scary, almost everyone will encounter it, so the sooner you come, the better.

You should know that this is not the real "rookie wall" because the regular season has not really started yet.
