On the verge of fourth place! Yang Hansen: At this moment, it’s time to wake up

Thinking back to a month ago, Yang Hansen was still the absolute focus of the spotlight. Awards, honors, commercial value, and even prospect predictions were all hot topics pursued by the media.

Although the local Portland fans did not understand the club's selection of Yang Hansen with the 16th pick, they still gave Yang Hansen more support and expectations in the face of the overwhelming praise from the media and his performance in the summer league.

Many fans even left messages, hoping that Yang Hansen could become "Portland's new Yao Ming."

However, just how long has passed, Yang Hansen fell from being the darling in the eyes of the media to the bottom in an instant, becoming an outcast and an object of ridicule. All kinds of heart-wrenching remarks were made endlessly, and Xiao Yang was not hesitated to be described as "sloth".

Yang Hansen's poor performance has become the most important reason for this situation.

So far, the Trail Blazers have achieved a record of 3 wins and 2 losses in 5 regular season games. The team's impressive results have been highly praised by the media. However, all these honors have little to do with Yang Hansen.

Yang Hansen played in all 5 games, averaging 5.8 minutes per game, scoring 1.8 points and 0.8 rebounds. The field goal percentage was 22.2% and the efficiency value was -3. This report card is completely inconsistent with his status as the 16th overall pick and his season expectations.

Of course, the short playing time, the need to adapt to the team system, the league environment, etc., are all objective reasons. But what competitive sports need is performance. Both the team and the fans hope that the new players will be able to compete! There is not so much time for you to adapt. This is the cruelty of competitive sports.

For a rookie, it is rare to be able to gain the team's unremitting trust.

Both Billups and Split gave Yang Hansen enough time to adapt. But judging from the final effect, it is obviously not satisfactory. This is also one of the main reasons for fans' anger.

Five games, facing the Lakers, is the focus of fans' anger!

The main reason is that the Lakers are full of injured soldiers, 7 main players are unable to play, and only Ayton is struggling to support the inside. If in the first three games, Yang Hansen needs time to adapt to the rhythm, or the opponent's inside strength is too strong, then facing the Lakers in this game, it can be said that this is Yang Hansen's best proof game.

Throughout the game, the Trail Blazers firmly took the initiative and ultimately defeated their opponents. However, in nearly 9 minutes of playing time, Yang Hansen had almost no highlights, and was completely beaten by his opponents.

After the game, Trail Blazers fans left messages on the team's official media. All kinds of sharp satire and criticism made people gasp. Facing several teams with almost no insiders, he still can't find his own abilities, and he can't even see his blood. How good can he be in the future?

The subsequent face-to-face with the Jazz was the straw that broke the camel's back.

Perhaps it was because Yang Hansen failed to seize the opportunity to prove himself when facing the Lakers, and was criticized by the fans for being a mess. Then they played the Jazz again, and their performance was sluggish again. Not only was there no threat on the offensive end, but the defense was full of loopholes, becoming the team's biggest liability. The opponent can easily score with a simple pick-and-roll.

It was also after this game that American fans gave Yang Hansen the name "Sloth".

As domestic fans of Yang Hansen, we naturally feel very uncomfortable when we see such comments. After all, Xiao Yang is the hope of our Chinese men's basketball team. It is indeed bitter to be criticized like this.

However, what can we explain? Are you going to explain it with "not adaptable to the opponent and need more time"? We ourselves are embarrassed to face it again.

Currently, Yang Hansen’s situation is very pessimistic!

In addition to its own poor performance, several competitors in the team are also recovering rapidly. Previously, Yang Hansen was Klingen's substitute, but when he faced the Jazz on the court, Reese's outburst won the fans' applause, which was in sharp contrast to Yang Hansen's loneliness.

And not only that, according to cutting-edge media reports: Lowe is already qualified to fight.

Although Lowe is not the absolute main force, he is definitely a qualified substitute. Coupled with Reese's sudden explosion and Klingen's absolute main force, Yang Hansen, who is in poor condition, is likely to be relegated to the fourth position! To be optimistic, he can only find some sense of presence during training time, and it is not even ruled out that he will be sent to the Development League.

As a well-known NBA commentator in China, Xu Jingyu sharply criticized Yang Hansen: It's completely cool!

The reason why Xu Jingyu is so negative about Yang Hansen is not only because of the above situation, but also due to off-field factors.

As we all know, although he performed poorly in the game, Yang Hansen was the focus of media attention off the court. Especially in terms of diet, various dishes and fats have become the focus of everyone's complaints. It is reported that Yang Hansen’s weight has soared by 16 pounds since the summer league! Visible physical gain.

According to the experience of NBA physical fitness management, if they strictly follow their recovery plan, these 16 pounds can be effectively managed and controlled in one to two months. But the embarrassing thing is that at this stage, Yang Hansen needs to express his key, and there is no such month or two to manage his figure.

This is my uncontrolled living habit that has caused the current troubles. Xu Jingyu bluntly said that this was a serious irresponsibility for her future.

As the hope of the Chinese men's basketball team and the sustenance of the fans, Yang Hansen needs to further strictly demand himself. Although there has been a lot of criticism in the media recently, the various accusations and remarks are basically based on his performance. Xiao Yang should accept everyone's criticism with an open mind, know his shame and then be brave.
