Are you saying Yang is not a big deal in China?I have a pretty good friend who lives in Phoenix; another good friend lives in NY (the state). Both are big NBA fans. They know who Yang is, but the notion that Yang is a big deal outside of Portland doesn't register

now try reading the quoted text in the the voice and style of skip from bull durham when he was giving the team the "lollygaggers" rant as it was intended above.No idea what this says cause I’m too old too see the green, but if it says what I think it says, I love you too

Which is certainly outside of Portland and has a population of around 1.4 billion.
AI Overview
Yes, Yang Hansen is incredibly popular in China. He's the first Chinese player drafted in the first round of the NBA in nearly 20 years, and his arrival has generated massive excitement and attention in China, with some describing him as the biggest name in China right now.

Not me....he was off my radar until the trade...I'd probably seen him play us a couple times and not made note of it.We knew who Avdija was.
Certainly nobody on this site was screaming about going and getting Avdija. Even after the trade there was only some speculation that he could contribute. He still only contributed to a losing season and most likely that will be the case again.Not me....he was off my radar until the trade...I'd probably seen him play us a couple times and not made note of it.

The population of Oregon is around 3.5 Million people while the US has about 350 Million people overall. The most popular sports league in China is the NBA with estimates of there being around 400 Million adult fans who watch regularly.
STOMP
That really doesn’t take anything away from the point that China has more NBA fans than the US has people.It's closer to 4.3 million

No. He's the 3rd string center. That doesn't sound like much, but no way Clingan plays more than 30/night (probably no more than 26 mpg). Rob Will will sit out back2backs. Both of those players have some injury history. Should be consistent minutes for Yang.i have missed the last 69 pages more or less.... do we think hes going to the Gleague first to get acclimated or straight to the league first and then see how he does?

lol. Duop played behind Walker. Walker made almost no money and was cut.Or Duop.
Timelord can also play PF so Yang has an opening to have a backup role every game.No. He's the 3rd string center.

Guys, this is the Conductor we’re talking about. Grant will play center before Hansen
He will get some run. Might only be 10-15 mins a game but he will see the court this year. The team does not practice much during the season. He will need reps.There may be some ‘truth’ to that idea, but ... Yang will get early time to see how he does. (And some face time for a few people in another country. Gotta give them a little something early on — they’re fans who’ve waited a while.) Grant should have his hands full at both forward positions. Matisse, Murray, Reath, and Rupert are other options (Time Lord, too …) which is to say that Grant needs to play a lot of forward.
