Chapter 32: The Importance of Multiple Openings
After Wu Huang came on the court, he didn't stretch out his hand, relying on his being the core of the team to snatch the basketball from DeRozan, who was in good shape, but used his threat to continue to feed DeRozan.
Once DeRozan's breakthrough was smooth, the attack power was amazing.
Although Wu Huang's in-situ bounce is also 70cm, he is not as fast as DeRozan in terms of bounce speed, and his running and jumping height is not as amazing as DeRozan's momentum, and his threat to the basket and DeRozan are completely two styles.
DeRozan's breakthrough purpose is relatively simple, rarely breaking through the ball, basically only has an option to impact the basket, which is easy to be interfered with by a strong inside, but the role is more direct and violent.
Wu Huang has more options after breaking through, he can shoot directly in the mid-range pull-up jumper, or he can play a board throw near the penalty area, or attract the defense and distribute the ball to his teammates, and his breakthrough creates a far greater threat than DeRozan.
But it is also due to the diversification of options, Wu Huang's breakthrough is difficult to defend, and the direct lethality to the enemy's interior line is not as good as DeRozan's, after all, the latter's breakthrough has only one goal - to score.
With a score of 41:36 in the first half, USC entered the second half with a five-point lead.
Wu Huang contributed 2 assists and 2 rebounds after replaying, and he had a total of 19 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal and 1 block in the first half.
At halftime, Wu Huang was about to return to the locker room, but was blocked by an interviewer sent by the University of Southern California, who turned out to be Taylor Swift.
Wu Huang suddenly understood, no wonder she didn't ask herself for a ticket before the game, and her feelings were to go to a public office.
"Hi, I'm Taylor Swift, the home side of the Trojans this season." Taylor Swift secretly winked at him, pretending not to know him, which is a bit 6.
"Oh my God!" Wu Huang said excitedly: "Miss Taylor, I am your fan, I didn't expect to see you here, can you sign for me?" Wu Huang's acting skills are good, and Bart Bligh, who was passing by next to him, heard the conversation between the two, and couldn't help but stumble, and almost fell on the ground.
Christine in the stands knew that they knew each other, and they didn't know what the hell they were playing, so angry that she pinched out five finger prints on the drink glass in her hand.
"Who is that woman with a tiger's back? Nords? How could Hugo be so excited to see her? Chloe Moretz pursed his mouth, looked at Wu Huang with an excited face on the big screen, and asked in an arrogant tone.
"She's a Hugo idol, a singer." Wu Zetian was happy in his heart, it seems that Xiao Kolo is a little interesting to his son, this tone is a little sour, although the girl's figure is not as good as Madonna, but it is definitely not a tiger's back.
The fans at the scene did not expect Taylor Swift to come to the scene to interview Wu Huang, although many fans knew that she ran to USC to go to school, but they did not expect her to appear in a basketball game, and some young fans couldn't help but exclaim!
Taylor Swift laughed: "I feel honored, but you have to let me interview first, you are the star of this game." ”
"Okay, I know everything."
"Excuse me, do you have a girlfriend?"
When Wu Huang heard this question, he was dumbfounded, but the fans at the scene laughed, they thought it was Taylor Swift's joke to Wu Huang.
"No, I'm too stupid for no girl to like."
"Do you have a favorite?"
Wu Huang really didn't know how to answer now, and the first thing that came to mind was Christine, and of course, Taylor Swift in front of him.
"Yes, I talked to her online for a long time yesterday, but I won't tell you who she is."
Wu Huang's words made Christine's heart skip a beat, she had been chatting with Wu Huang on Yahoo last night, and chatted until she went to sleep, wasn't Wu Huang talking about her?
Taylor Swift's face was also red, last night she used AIM to chat with Wu Huang until ten o'clock in the evening, and until she went to bed, doesn't this mean that the person he likes is himself?
Emma Roberts in front of the computer suddenly knocked over the water glass in her hand, last night she used MSN to chat with Wu Huang for more than two hours, and Sister Panda was shocked: "Could it be that he has a crush on me?" ”
Chloe Moretz stretched out her scissor hand, she and Wu Huang used the Chinese penguin chat tool to talk until she went to bed last night, but she didn't plan to have a boyfriend so early, so it was better to reject him first.
Wu Huangxin said that fortunately, he has liked to use different chat tools since he was a child, and he seems to have chatted with many people yesterday, but he can't remember clearly.
Taylor Swift didn't dare to ask any more questions, and quickly turned the question back to the game: "Today's game was very close, the two teams each took the lead 4 times in the first half, what do you want to say?" ”
Wu Huang also breathed a sigh of relief, reciting the standard answer from the team's interview booklet: "The University of Washington played very well, Isaiah is like a little assassin, I mean his performance reminds everyone of the name engraved in the Hall of Fame, in the face of this kind of opponent, we can't be slack off, we will defend first in the second half." ”
Taylor Swift finished the interview, and Wu Huang ran back to the locker room in a bit of embarrassment, he had to think about it carefully, who he talked to last night, and he couldn't remember it clearly.
"Hugo, DeMar, in the second half, you have to try to get in position early, use your height and reach to interfere with the opponent, but you don't need to keep the opponent out of the box, you can let them play under the basket, find a chance to block, as long as you succeed a few times, they don't dare to break through again."
Floyd has always had high hopes for his two guards, and USC's current configuration is also dominated by the outside, and the inside line is at most the icing on the cake, and if Wu Huang and DeRozan can't lead the team forward, they won't be able to go far even if they reach the national championship.
"Joan Brockman is the soul of the University of Washington, but he has committed three fouls, and we can't let him go in the second half, and we must beat him down." Floyd knows the University of Washington very well, the configuration of the other party and his own team is very similar, neither is a team that relies on the inside to kill the enemy, the score mainly comes from the outside, the difference is that Brockman is stronger than DeRozan's scoring ability, but the University of Washington's outside scoring ability is slightly worse than his own, and the strength of the two teams is generally half a pound to eight taels.
Coincidentally, the University of Washington also thinks the same, Gibson also committed three fouls in the first half, as long as he is beaten, the interior of USC is completely unthreatening.
At the beginning of the second half, Isiah Thomas broke through to the basket with the help of a pick-and-roll.
USC implemented a defensive rotation strategy, with Floyd using DeRozan to defend Isiah Thomas and Wu Huang taking on the stronger Duntmon.
Isiah Thomas sensed someone behind him, and Barnard was still standing under the USC basket, and this breakthrough had no chance, and immediately a ground-hitting pass sent the basketball to Brockman.
Brockman singled out Gibson, both of whom were the soul of the team, but the former was more offensive, and Brockman made two tentative moves in the ribs and immediately dribbled to the basket.
Gibson didn't back down, he only got 5 points and 5 rebounds today, and he didn't play well on the offensive end, so on the defensive end, he said that he couldn't let the opponent break through him.
"Toot!"
Brockman's basic skills are very solid, although the dribbling ability is average, but the timing of the breakthrough is very good, this time he deliberately went to find physical contact with Gibson, the two faced off physically, and the referee immediately blew the whistle - defensive foul!
