Sad Yang Hansen: The person who was "blown up" by you is about to become the NBA champion!

With a whistle, the Guangzhou men's basketball team defeated the Qingdao men's basketball team again, completing the feat of the following grams for two consecutive seasons. The cheerful celebration scene of Guo Shiqiang and his disciples is in stark contrast to the loneliness of the Qingdao men's basketball team.

There is super star Yang Hansen inside, there are CBA top foreign aid Powell, and there are strikers like Wang Ruize and Zhao Jiayi. Faced with the current situation of being attacked by injuries without Li Yanzhe, how could Kemp and Jia Mingru lose?

Playoff inexperience is one thing, but more contradictions point to one person: Young.

Two playoff games, averaging 8 points, 13.5 rebounds and 3.5 blocks per game, may not be bad for other domestic players. But as the core of the interior line, a player who is about to enter the NBA, it seems very unqualified.

Just before the playoffs, ESPN's draft expert Jonathan made it clear that according to Yang Hansen's current ability, he is not suitable for entering the NBA, and his speed, explosiveness and projection ability are his shortcomings.

There is no doubt that Jonathan is telling the truth, but both fans and well-known media personalities have different opinions on whether or not Yang Hansen will participate in this year's draft. However, unexpectedly, after these two playoff games, everyone's voices are almost surprisingly unanimous, and there is no longer a dispute about whether Yang Hansen will participate in the draft.

For Chinese players, the best age to be able to stay abroad and compete in the NBA is before the age of 20. In the current NBA selection, strength is of course an important criterion, but everyone is more optimistic about the plasticity of a player. In other words, you can show great talent at the beginning of your career, which is also a big incentive to choose you.

Yang Hansen is not yet 19 years old, and compared to the starting point of the NBA draft, it is indeed enough. It's just that technically, it dragged its feet.

What is the main root cause? After reading the following example, you may understand in your heart.

I don't know if you remember that in the last U19 World Cup, the Chinese men's basketball team met the French men's basketball team U19, and the Chinese men's basketball team lost by 20 points in that game. However, as the pillar of the inner line, Yang Hansen played very well, facing Saar, who is known as the future star of France, and went all out to gain the upper hand!

The two are of similar height and weight, but in terms of performance, Yang Hansen overwhelmed his opponent with a comprehensive performance of 14 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 blocks, which made Sal disgraced. Although the Chinese men's basketball team lost the game, Yang Hansen won the battle for the future.

However, in the following season, the two embarked on different development paths, and there were also very different results later.

Yang returned to the CBA to continue his career. And Sarr has made his mark in the NBL!

I remember that in a high-profile comparison, against the Ignite team, Sal scored 17 points and 7 rebounds, and 26 points and 10 rebounds in the two games. What's even more exaggerated is that he also contributed 12 blocks in two games! Excellent physical fitness, coupled with super self-confidence and technology, attracted the attention of NBA teams at the time, and bluntly said: Sarr is likely to be selected by the NBA team in advance!

In the subsequent season in the NBL, although Sarr did not show very explosive statistics, he showed amazing talent and performance. Although he is an inside No. 5 position, his excellent body movement, defensive initiative, and excellent performance on the offensive end make him no longer a simple interior line, but more like a well-rounded talent who plays from the No. 5 position to the No. 1 position!

For most of this year's draft, Sarr has been in the top five and has reached the top spot several times!

Of course, in addition to his outstanding performance, it is also important to have such a ranking result, that is, this year's draft is a small year, and in the face of the NCAA and the development league semi-finished product, Sarr does have the capital to compete. It's a pity that our Yang Hansen didn't catch it.

The level of competition and the intensity of confrontation in the NBL league may not be familiar to everyone. The confrontation in this league is of a high standard, and even the NBA has to give up three points. Like Ball at the beginning, under the high pressure of the NBL, the outside shooting rate was only 27%, but after returning to the NBA, his outside level will rise directly to 35%!

This explains why Sarr is not too good in the NBL, but there are many teams willing to want him. If you can have your own world in the NBL and join the NBA, there will be a certain amount of space.

Speaking of which, we can answer the question above, the reason why Yang Hansen is not favored by ESPN draft experts is that the data is only one aspect, and the other reason is that the platform is not good!

This also explains why Jonathan, after commenting on Yang Hansen's performance, further expressed his disappointment with the CBA league, admitting that the current CBA league has dropped too much compared to before.

Let's put it a little more heart-wrenching, Yang Hansen's current technical characteristics are definitely no problem in the CBA, slow pace and low confrontation, but he needs a long time to adapt to the NBA, which is based on the premise that the team is willing to give him playing time. Although Saar is not so good, he is more malleable, which Yang Hansen cannot match.
