Recently, Trail Blazers media person "blazers are cool" talked about Yang Hansen and team GM Cronin in a podcast.

"We emphasize the whirlwind style of full-court pressing with a small lineup. This style of play requires a solid defensive backbone to protect the basket, such as Klingen, and Yang Hansen is obviously still far from this level. When facing a fast-breaking player like Edwards, it is difficult for him to deal with it. Therefore, he seems a bit embarrassed in this system. Of course, this does not mean that the Blazers need We need to change the current style of play. After all, this style of play is very effective, but our style of play does not give Yang Hansen any opportunity to show his abilities. This is actually a problem of all relevant personnel - the management problem, the coaching staff problem, maybe Yang Hansen also has his own problem, it is difficult to tell exactly, I really can’t see how he can integrate, but this is not entirely his fault, "said the media person.

"Yang Hansen is indeed a very talented player, but he is more suitable for a slow-paced, half-court offensive team. Our style is completely opposite to the style he is good at, so I feel sorry for him, but I don't want to change our style because of this. This situation is really difficult because he still has a lot to grow. But what is even more confusing is that GM Cronin clearly knows that we will play this fast style, why did he choose Yang?" the media person said.
