The cruel truth under the flowers and applause! Garnett’s heartfelt words: Awakened Yang Hansen to understand the direction of efforts

Since Yang Hansen was selected by the Trail Blazers with the 16th overall pick, the popularity and topics behind it are destined to remain high, whether it is Yang Hansen personally or the Trail Blazers.

The wonderful performance in the summer league and the highlight of the preseason against the Kings have pushed this attention to a new peak. From Yang Hansen's personal performance, to the growth of the NBA, and the club's vision, to the commercial value behind it, all have been thoroughly analyzed by the media.

For Yang Hansen, who is only 20 years old, the attention he has received is unprecedented. You must know that when he was in the CBA, Xiao Yang was praised as the new leader of the future Chinese men's basketball team. After joining the NBA, it attracted the attention of many overseas fans.

Although he has not yet fully established himself as the team's main force, the attention and various benefits he has brought to the club so far have greatly exceeded expectations, and the management has developed a series of refined business operations around him.

The promotion of Yang Hansen, the next NBA star after Yao Ming, has almost covered the entire local media. In a short period of time, it became the focus of discussion in the streets and alleys.

When reporters asked how he viewed this kind of praise, Yang Hansen seemed a little shy and at a loss. He just emphasized that he takes his time on the court seriously and will not let the team and fans down.

Recently, as a famous NBA star, Garnett gave different advice.

The "Wolf King" said frankly that there is no shortage of players of all types in the NBA, whether you are an excellent scorer, a fierce defender, or a talented young player. But at the same time, there are so many promising players who failed early in their careers. There are too many examples of this.

Yang Hansen is a very good player, and his performance deserves everyone's praise, but this is only a short period of time, and his road has just begun.

Later, when talking about how Yang Hansen could gain a foothold in the NBA, Garnett gave a clear answer: Just focus.

further explained that a player must have his own characteristics, as mentioned above, defense, offense, organization, etc. can all be used. Everyone is pursuing comprehensiveness, which is just an ideal. The reason why you stand on the field is because the head coach wants to bring out your shining points and strongest points. Therefore, for Yang Hansen, he currently needs to adapt to this league and the tactical thinking of the team and the head coach, but if he wants to gain a firm foothold in the future, he must develop his ability to surpass most people.

It has to be said that compared to the praise and praise from other media reporters, Garnett's suggestion is relatively pertinent.

Garnett is no stranger to most fans. During his peak period, he staged many classic battles with Yao Ming. Together with Duncan and Nowitzki, he was once rated as the three most powerful forwards of the same period, and was elected to the Hall of Fame. Whether in the Timberwolves, Celtics, or Nets, Garnett's achievements and status are enough to arouse the absolute respect of fans.

Strictly speaking, although Garnett and Yang Hansen do not belong to the same position (one is the fourth position and the other is the fifth position), but looking at the current league, the court can only be divided into inside and outside lines. The specific "number of positions" division of labor has been very vague. And it is precisely based on this current situation that Garnett hopes that Yang Hansen will not blindly pursue comprehensiveness, but rather emphasize his own skills and foundation.

Yang Hansen hopes that he can control the entire court like Jokic. Jokic is very comprehensive on the offensive end. He can support his teammates to score. He can pull away and use his comprehensive offensive methods to defeat the opponent. In many cases, he will even dribble the ball through the half. He is the absolute core of the Nuggets.

But you must know that when Jokic entered the NBA, he was also a player who was not optimistic at all. You know, his draft pick was only No. 41 in the second round, and he did not officially play in the NBA until the second season. The Rockets only scored 2 points in their debut. In the first season, he averaged only 6 points and 4 rebounds per game. It wasn't until his third season that Jokic fully adapted to the league and completely broke out, becoming the most comprehensive inside big man at the moment.

For Yang Hansen, there is a very good starting point, whether it is the atmosphere of the team or the support of fans outside the court. Coupled with the guidance of many basketball celebrities, I believe that through future efforts, Xiao Yang will definitely gain a firm foothold and become another banner of Chinese basketball in the NBA.
