On October 30, the NBA regular season ushered in a "focus game". The Trail Blazers challenged the Jazz away from home. In the end, after four quarters, the Trail Blazers narrowly defeated the Jazz 136-134. In terms of statistics, a total of six players of the Trail Blazers scored in double figures. Starter Holiday scored a team-high 27 points, Avdija scored 19 points, Sharp scored 18 points, Kamara scored 17 points, substitute player Grant scored 18 points, and Wesley scored 10 points. A total of four Jazz players scored in double figures. Markkanen scored a game-high 32 points, George scored 29 points, Kessler scored 18 points and 12 rebounds, and substitute Nurkic scored 13 points. Chinese player and Trail Blazers center Yang Hansen played for 4 minutes, made 1 of 1 shots and scored 2 points.

Since the Jazz played at home, they had the right time and place, and quickly established a nearly double-digit lead in one quarter. However, as the game progressed, the Trail Blazers gradually narrowed the score. However, after Yang Hansen came on the stage, the Jazz seized this point to score consecutively, so the score was opened again. Therefore, after the first quarter, the Jazz led the Trail Blazers by 10 points. The Trail Blazers coach used a small lineup in the second quarter and gradually narrowed the score with his flexible advantage. Later in the quarter, Reese became the Blazers' surprise player, hitting three consecutive three-pointers in the open space, helping the team not only tie the score, but also led the Jazz by 6 points at the end of the quarter.

After halftime adjustments, the Trail Blazers' small lineup became "more and more aggressive". On the other hand, the Jazz were getting more and more anxious. In just two minutes, they fell behind the Trail Blazers by 10 points and came to the latter part of this quarter. , the Jazz was completely unable to withstand the Trail Blazers, who were completely open on the offensive end, so the point difference between the two sides once reached more than 20 points. Although the Jazz tried hard to chase points, the effect was not obvious, so after three quarters, the Jazz trailed the Trail Blazers by 19 points.

In the fourth quarter, the Jazz coach made adjustments to the lineup and tactics. Unexpectedly, in just 5 minutes of this quarter, the Jazz had chased the nearly 20-point difference to single digits. The panicked Trail Blazers The offensive end seemed a little overwhelmed, but the Jazz continued to chase points fiercely and narrowed the score difference to 1 point in the last 6 seconds of this quarter. However, the miracle did not happen. In the end, the Trail Blazers narrowly defeated the Jazz in the away game with a slight advantage of 2 points.

It should be noted that just after the Trail Blazers narrowly defeated the Jazz, Yang Hansen received 2 good news and 1 bad news; first of the two bad news, the Trail Blazers trailed the Jazz by double digits when Yang Hansen was on the court. After Yang Hansen came off the court, the Jazz recovered the score abruptly. After that, Yang Hansen never played again. Obviously, Coach Split has completely lost trust in Yang Hansen, so this is very detrimental to Yang Hansen.

The second bad news is that Reese's outbreak may also shorten the rotation time for Yang Hansen. Originally, Reese's tactical position was behind Yang Hansen. But unexpectedly, when the Trail Blazers were chasing points, coach Split asked Reese to serve as the fifth position. As a result, Reese hit three three-pointers as soon as he came up, helping the team not only tie the score, but also overtake it. Obviously, Reese has completely won the trust of Coach Split through this game, so it is not ruled out that Yang Hansen will be completely dropped from the rotation.

The good news is that Yang Hansen's mental state is much better today than before. For a professional basketball player, the quality of his mental state will directly affect his performance. Perhaps, in a good mental state, Yang Hansen can play more smoothly and become more confident.

Finally, Zhou Qi gave Yang Hansen sharp advice. Zhou Qi said: "You must have a calm mentality. Many black players in the NBA look down on us from the bottom of their hearts, so your mentality is very important in that environment." But having said that, Yang Hansen's recent mentality is indeed not very good, so he hopes that Yang Hansen will adjust his mentality as soon as possible and strive to gain a foothold in the NBA as soon as possible.
