Splash some cold water! Xia Yu s appearance - the hidden dilemma behind Yang Hansen s debut six fouls

When Yang Hansen entered the NBA Summer League under the name of "China Jokic", the eyes of the crowd gathered on the 19-year-old center. Under the 33-point difference between the Trail Blazers and the Warriors, Yang Hansen's 10-point, 4 rebounds and 5 assists seemed glamorous, but the dazzling 6 fouls and the physical difficulties in the second half were like a scalpel, cutting open the real path of the Chinese star to the NBA - potential and shortcomings are entangled, and applause and alarm bells ringing simultaneously.

Shadow of Fouls: The price of a "speeding experience"

Fans jokingly said that Yang Hansen's foul data "adapted to NBA rules in advance" - he received 6 fouls in just 23 minutes, which was enough to be kicked out twice in the regular season. Looking closely at his foul distribution, it reflects the collision between his young body and the NBA rhythm:

Pick-and-roll defensive prediction: Facing the quick screening of the Warriors guard, he was called out for excessive stretching three times, revealing hesitation in judgment;

Imbalance in the basket's confrontation position: rushing to make up for defense resulted in two unnecessary pushes, and he had to stop loss with a foul due to lack of core strength;

Chain reaction during the fatigue period: slow movement in the second half intensified, and finally left the field due to excessive assisting defense.

NBA defense scale is like a precision filter - Yang Hansen's hardware talent (height 2.16 meters and wingspan 2.24 meters) is a pass, but predictive ability and sense of position are the key codes that determine whether to stay or not. The Trail Blazers assistant coach privately admitted: "He needs to learn to block his opponent with his footsteps rather than his palms."

The physical gap: warning signal for high and low ending

If Yang Hansen's debut was disassembled into the first and second half, it would be tantamount to witness a player's version of the "roller coaster diary":

The first half is full of vitality: 8 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists, and a wonderful pass from behind + empty cut dunk, supporting talent caused the audience to exclaim;

The offensive and defensive collapse in the second half: only 1 of 4 shots, defensive missed people, rebound card mistakes frequently appeared, and after the game, he admitted that "lead was poured into both legs in a few minutes." The strong contrast of

reflects the essential gap between China's youth training and the international stage. The "lasting combat illusion" of CBA's slow-paced confrontation cultivation has been defeated back to its original shape in the fast-paced transition at the NBA level - the lack of core strength has led to inaccurate confrontation at the basket, and insufficient oxygen intake ability has caused deformity in the action during the final victory. ESPN commentary hit the nail on the head: "He is like a high-power engine equipped with a small fuel tank."

Offensive shackles: a flaw covered by the halo of talent

When American journalists praised Yang Hansen on social media for "passing like Jokic possessed", their technical shortcomings quietly backfired in the dark:

Offensive ending single: 5 out of 7 shots rely on feeding cakes, only scored 1 in the near-frame strong hit, lacking stable low-post footsteps;

Projection ability to break the deadlock: 3 three-point attempts only hit 1 ball, and the mid-range has not shown power yet;

ball-holding ability to finish is to be tested: near-static operation when responding at high positions, and the ball handling ability to be tested during travel.

When the opponent sees through the essence of his "non-projection support center", he only needs to shrink his defense line and squeeze the pass space - the embarrassing scene of being released for two meters in the last quarter but still choosing to pass is a real epitome of the current dilemma. Where is the way ahead? The compulsory course from "natural jade" to "rotation"

Trail Blazers coach Billups patted his shoulder with a "Good job" not a polite compliment. The management's idea of seeing it as a long-term asset planning is clear:

1️⃣ Emergency topic: Improve cardiopulmonary function within three months (hire a professional physical fitness team), and control fouls per game less than 4 times;

2️⃣ Season goal: develop medium and long shot deterrent power and become a stable response point in the tactical system;

3️⃣ Ultimate evolution: create a low-post back-body and pick-and-roll downward technical package, and evolve to the "space-based support axis".

It is worth noting that Yang Hansen has shown valuable self-knowledge: "I know very well what's wrong." - This soberness is far more important than the data of a summer league.

Conclusion: The glimmer in the pain of growth

When the broadcast camera swept across the audience - the senior management of the Tuoguan focused on recording, the special value of this oriental boy was reflected: he did not have the visual dominance of Wenban Yama, nor was he a member of the Homgren style new era insider, but he was exploring his own survival code in the gap between basketball wisdom and modern center skills.

In the sharp contrast between "highlights" and "loopholes", Yang Hansen's NBA journey tore off the romantic icing in advance. Those foul records and exhaustion moments are exactly the toll bills that lead to mature.
