Tuo Ji: The key for Hexion is not whether he goes to the Development League, but where he can best practice.

Hupu News on October 28 Today’s NBA regular season: The Trail Blazers will face the Lakers back-to-back.

Before the game, the Trail Blazers officially announced that the team has sent center Robert Williams to the G League to resume training.

Blazers Chinese team reporter Yovic posted on social media about whether Yang Hansen should go to the Development League to train. He said: The key for Hansen is not whether to go to the Development League, but where he can best practice.

The original text is as follows:

"With Lowe approaching his comeback and Hexion's playing time decreasing, many people have begun to discuss whether he should go to the Development League.

This decision is not only related to player positioning, but also largely depends on the coach's personality and team leadership philosophy.

Some coaches like to keep newcomers on the team, practice together in the main system every day, watch videos, understand terminology and accumulate presence; some coaches are more willing to let players go. Go play games, work out in the G-League, find the feel, and turn the training content into actual muscle memory. For example, Billups let go of Rupert and Reese who had less playing time many times last season.

Split is a new head coach, and many people (including many reporters who follow the team) do not know much about his coaching philosophy and personality. It is still unknown whether he and the team hope that Hexion will grow slowly in a mature structure or hone through games. The party needs to observe and understand the key points.

In fact, both paths are feasible for this pioneer. On the one hand, Split has the background of the Spurs, and that team has always paid attention to systematic training and decentralized testing; on the other hand, the systems of the Trail Blazers and the Development League affiliated teams have long been connected. Whether it is the decentralized training of Sharp, Lupert, and Lowe after their injuries, or general manager Cronin will appear in almost every G League scene, mixing is an important part of the Trail Blazers player growth system. .

So the key is not whether to go or not, but what to practice at the current stage and where you can best practice it. If playing time in the first team is limited and the issues are footwork, confrontation or short-term decision-making, then it is a good thing to play in the G League; but if the role is stable and there are clear responsibilities in training and games, then it is more valuable to stay in the first team and run into the system.

Ultimately, this is neither a black or white choice nor something that happens overnight. "
