Gibson received four fouls and had to go off the court and couldn't get back on the court for most of the game.

USC backup power forward Andrew Agnes is 205cm tall, but he lacks athleticism, and there is nothing to show his hands on both offensive and defensive ends.

Wu Huang does not intend to be tied up, although it is difficult to play without an inside line, as long as he and DeRozan play at a high level, they can still win.

USC's two interior lines completely became cover tools at this time, with Wu Huang and DeRozan taking turns to break through.

Five minutes later, USC was still in the lead.

Wu Huang broke through one after another to send second passes for his teammates, and in the second half, Bart's three-point shot was played, and he hit a three-point shot from Wu Huang twice, plus DeRozan has been impacting Brockman, and the two guards at USC have a clear division of labor, one is responsible for scoring points for the team, and the other is going to complete the tasks assigned by Floyd.

In the second half, USC, led by two guards, still played well and did not fall behind.

Brockman is better than DeRozan in the collegiate league, he can control his fouls well, and DeRozan's several breakaways are only in exchange for a few points, and he has never been able to complete the task assigned by the coach. Blackman's defense is very smart, his defense is not aimed at blocking, mainly to affect the opponent's shooting crosshair, and he plays very calmly and cunningly.

Gibson is more capable of running and jumping, and is better at blocking opponents, but his fouls are largely the result of being too block-oriented, and Gibson's excellent bounce and explosiveness today did not earn him many blocks, but allowed him to get four fouls early.

At 12 minutes and 20 seconds of the second half, the score came to 50:49, and the University of Washington used the advantage of the inside line to slowly close the score, and the players played very calmly without any anxiety.

USC, on the other hand, was a little too aggressive in the cheers of the home fans, and they were eager to open up the difference.

Wu Huang quickly discovered the problem, DeRozan's breakthrough has failed to cause Brockman to foul, at first his scoring efficiency was okay, but the University of Washington slowly adapted to DeRozan's breakthrough, and then coped with it better and better, and if he continued to play like this, it was becoming more and more inefficient, and it was time to change the style of play.

Floyd also realized the problem and replaced DeRozan early, and Wu Huang began to control the rhythm on the court, and they had to play a defensive counterattack for a while to accumulate strength for the final showdown.

This is true in both basketball and football, where offense and defense cannot be carried out in a constant manner, they need to be relaxed. After attacking for a while, if it can't be effective, you should slow down the rhythm, readjust it, and then find the right time to attack, which is the so-called rhythm of the game, and it is also an important criterion to measure whether a point guard is good.

"Tempo" is difficult to describe, there is no fixed formula, it cannot be calculated, how to master it depends entirely on the level of understanding of the game by the coach and the players, and a lot of game experience.

Wu Huang's feeling just now told him that if he unstabilized the team's rhythm and continued to attack, he was likely to be taken away by the opponent in waves.

USC has been unable to attack for a long time, the momentum has begun to decline, the players' thoughts have begun to increase, and their attention has naturally begun to be distracted, which is the easiest time to be counterattacked by the opponent. A mature team will choose to stabilize at this time and switch from offense to defense, otherwise it will be too late to defend when it is counterattacked.

Floyd was very experienced and immediately replaced Bart and DeRozan with Nathan and Edmund, choosing to strengthen the defense.

USC has brought in two new players at this time, even if their individual abilities are not as good as the first two, but at least their energy is full, this is the art of rotation, Bart and DeRozan have been attacking for so long, and letting them switch to defense all at once may have the effect of half the effort, because they may not be able to adjust the rhythm.

Wu Huang was not replaced, as the core of the organization that controls the whole team, if even he can't be adjusted, USC won't have to play.

Less than a minute into the substitution, the University of Washington launched an unforeseen onslaught, holding back for almost ten minutes and playing on the defensive, waiting for the moment when the morale of the USC players dropped.

The players from the University of Washington were full of energy at this time, and this counterattack was like a garden mouth being dug up, and the ferocity of the firepower was far beyond Wu Huang's expectations, he expected the opponent's intentions, but he did not calculate that his side could not block such a fierce attack, and the score was quickly overtaken.

Floyd hurriedly called a timeout, he couldn't understand why he was playing so passively when there were three college stars on his team, and the game was played on his home court.

This is because he doesn't know that the University of Washington is the champion of this year's Pacific Ten Conference championship in the original time and space, and its strength should definitely not be underestimated.

"Keep calm, now is the test for you, then we put the defensive center of gravity on the outside and inside, they shoot a lot of three-point shots, and all the energy of shooting from the middle distance is used to impact the basket, the two of us inside simply don't come out, stay in the restricted area to defend and break through, the other three block the three-point line, if they shoot in the middle range, just give some pressure appropriately." Floyd finished the defense, sped up his speech, and said, "The offensive end is just as important to us, and when we get the rebounds on the inside, the three outside players immediately go down the fast break and play their offensive and defensive transitions. But if we didn't have a chance to counter-attack, we ran out of 35 seconds and settled down. In short, you remember that the fierce tide may not be stopped, but it will subside on its own, and I will tell you when to launch a counterattack, but until then, you must freeze yrozen, maintain absolute calm, and do not be overwhelmed by the attacks of your opponents. ”

Floyd's tactics were right or wrong, but the experience he instilled in his players and the way he played the game was absolutely correct, something that college players should learn. And he was right, the University of Washington's offense was really like a tidal wave, a timeout couldn't stop them at all, and USC was like a boat in a storm, ready to be overturned by a huge wave at any moment.

In the second half, Wu Huang did not rest at all, and in the 9th minute and 30 seconds, this time he predicted the passing route of the University of Washington, won a steal with a long arm, and quickly counterattacked to score two points.

"Cheer up, we are like a fishing boat in a storm, but there are 12 people on this boat, as long as we are in the same boat and fight the wind and rain together, we will definitely win in the end." After Wu Huang broke the ball and scored, he found that Gibson was not there, and decided to motivate his teammates, because he found that Brockman and Isiah Thomas on the opposite side had to shout two words to their teammates after each goal, but unfortunately the content was lackluster, and he felt that he could do better than them.

The Memorial Stadium is also the venue that has hosted two Olympic Games, and the live recording equipment is excellent, and Wu Huang's shouting this time clearly reached the ears of the fans at the scene, and his performance at this moment is indeed very leader-like, and many fans applauded him.

Floyd nodded in satisfaction on the sidelines, Wu Huang's performance was exactly what he wanted to see, this Chinese man has much better language skills than Gibson, and he is the most suitable person to captain the team.

The score was 54:57, and although USC was three points behind, they were not overwhelmed by the opponent's attack, but patiently waited for the coach's counterattack order, just like the University of Washington before.
