Draft expert: Yang Hansen has a good offense, making Klingen in a difficult situation, and the inside is crowded, and trade one

On August 10, Yang Hansen returned to Portland recently. He will start new training here to prepare for the preseason. Domestic fans are also paying more attention to Hensen's prospects in the new season. After all, the Trail Blazers team has many young players, and many players need playing time and ball rights to prove themselves. At the same time, they also have enough inside staff reserves. In this case, Yang Hansen seems to be under great pressure as a rookie.

However, according to the Trail Blazers, Billups once said: I am very relieved to put him on the court now. He is so outstanding. I don’t think he needs any long-term training situation, but Billups also said that the team’s inside line is too crowded. Now the Trail Blazers include Klingen, Rowe and Yang Hansen inside. If you are in normal order, Yang Hansen may only be the third round center. In this case, his playing time will be pitifully less.

However, today, the well-known talent show expert James talked about Yang Hansen's future situation in a program. He first responded to the question that Yang Hansen was selected by the Trail Blazers by relying on his identity as a "money tree". He said: Some people say he is like a money tree, and the economic impact brought by the huge crowd behind him is immeasurable. Some people say that Portland has won a person who can set a box office record, but the key is that you can't make fakes when playing. He performed well in Xia Lian. Now the Trail Blazers are getting a very good player.

Then he said: I have placed Yang Hansen in the draft list predictions I gave many times. When Yang Hansen was first selected, many people expressed their disapproval and asked who this is? Just like we don’t know the name of a CBA team, but my team and I have been optimistic about him from the beginning. I have to say that this scout has a good vision. Hansen’s performance in Xialian was indeed very amazing, and even exceeded everyone’s expectations.

After that, the scout talked about some interesting things. Yang Hansen played very well in Xia Lian. My team was also on the scene. The Trail Blazers' vice president Schmitz came over and asked us, "How is it? How is the guy we selected?" When their vice president said this, I knew that Yang Hansen was already very popular with his team. The Trail Blazers sent scouts to observe Hansen two years ago, and their entire team must be very interested in Hansen.

James also said: Yang Hansen is the biggest winner in the summer league. Perhaps we can also say that the Trail Blazers are the biggest winners. They not only won a lot of fans, but also got an excellent player. He is very good at playing, he is a good player. He will high-quality teammates, he is great, his passes are top-notch, he can block shots, his ball quotation is very high, his offense is very good, he can create offensive opportunities, which will put pressure on Klingen.

Now, Klingen will be the starting center of the Trail Blazers in the new season, but his problem is also very obvious. His defense is top-notch and his body shape also has an advantage in the same position. His pick-and-roll quality and frame protection are very excellent, but his offensive ability is very limited, and three-pointers still need to be developed, and his low-post offensive skills are not good. In this case, if the Trail Blazers want to develop an offense, then Yang Hansen will definitely be taken seriously.

However, both of them should be able to stay in the team. If they develop well in the future, Yang Hansen may become the starting center. If they do not develop well, he will probably be a substitute center. The Trail Blazers also have plans to train him for a long time. If they are trained for a long time, the team needs to give him more opportunities instead of a third choice. For this reason, the Trail Blazers also talked about the team's operation plan for next season.

He said: Although Rowe is often injured, he is already a big man who has proved himself in the league. He is one of the best inside players in the NBA defense and helped the Celtics to the Finals in 2022 and was selected for the Best Second Defense. However, his attendance rate has not been good in the past two seasons. Although he will enter the contract year next season, his playing time is still uncertain. Klingen will almost serve as the starting center, and Yang Hansen will also receive a lot of substitute time, and Rees will also get a share of it.

The healthy Rowe can indeed rely on his athleticism and high-level basketball awareness to become the nightmare of the league's top big man, but his physical condition does not allow him to play in Portland for a long time. The ideal situation is that Rowe will recover from October to January, so that the Trail Blazers will send him away before the February trade deadline to get a good return. It is not an exaggeration to have a draft pick in the middle of the first round. It depends on this. The Blazers want to trade Rowe.

This is understandable. After all, Rowe does not meet the long-term plan of the Trail Blazers. He is already 27 years old and is not healthy enough. The team will build a team around young players, and they will also steadily improve and grow in the reconstruction process. Having said that, what do you want to say about the current pioneers?
