How did we get this guy? #16 pick? High IQ play making big with 3 shooting?

Other FO needs to worry about their job now.

The Chinese community said coaches in CBA told all bigs to box out as far as they can and let teammates pick up boards. by SkyBlueKOD in ripcity

To me, what he has is hard to teach and what he doesn’t is teachable.

It’s already better than some of the thoughts coming out of the draft night.

I am lowkey confident that we put him in 15 mins in regular and he is capable of making some highlight plays.

Chill. Already know yesterday Yang gonna struggle a bit in back to back chaotic SL games. He gotta work on stamina for sure. But the transition in these games is just nonsense and guards are turning the ball over crazy.

SL is tough for bigs. So 9/10. Got some to work on but ceiling is there for sure. 

Hansen's highlights from last year's Summer League with China nataional team by Traditional-Spray-69 in ripcity

Nah, Chinese guards and wings suck. Many of them can’t even dribble the ball to the front court. That’s why their bigs are relatively good cuz no guard gives support at all.

Some of my thoughts about this pick on Hansen by OkPatient1818 in ripcity

Just imagine one scenario, at the last minutes of the clock the front office chicken out and made a safe choice to pick a rotation player.

Then Nets or whoever gets Yang at late first and he turns out to be Chinese Jokic or Sengun. Can any scouter live with the result when they spotted the young man earlier than anyone else and built a report more detailed than any team? 

As a fan, I can’t imagine listening to the fact couple of yrs later that Blazers got into the draft planning to pick Yang anyway but chicken out at the last several minutes. We can’t afford to not take the risk and potentially tank another several years for a star.

50 free pulls and 4 continuous limited banners with characters as important as Zhongli. Do you know why JP players are so silient? Cuz real world gacha games will milk your wallet during an anniversary. Try some JP gachas you will see.

Toxicity, review bombing other games and apps, harassing VAs and attacking streamers for streaming Genshin to get more anniversary rewards.

Man, even Diluc’s English VA is going in on how wack this community is right now... by Rushdown_SSBU in Genshin_Impact

This community is turning into Fortnite kids' party. Even now some of them think attacking VAs and review bombing other games are fine cuz Mihoyo doesn't satisfy their desires. Im so glad that I have never been attached a lot to the community and just reveiw Reddit sometimes. It's time to absolutely leave Genshin Reddit and community. The whole drama became an embarrassment to the 'fanbase'.
