Chapter 55: Gambling

During the intermission, Wu Huang took his mobile phone and saw the text messages sent by the three girls, and secretly cheered himself up in his heart, saying anything today to kill that damn beard, bastard actually dared to steal his own limelight?

Harden's performance today is indeed outstanding, compared to the two meetings at the beginning of the season, this meeting, his progress has made Wu Huang secretly have a sense of crisis. Didn't you say that Shibei should be impressed for three days? The ancients did not deceive me, these guys who were called geniuses were not fuel-efficient lamps, and if he did not progress fast enough, he might be overtaken by the beard again this time.

Think about Curry and Evans, who I saw more than half a year ago, what will these geniuses who were better than him at that time improve now? And the golden boy Rubio, who is famous in Europe, is said to be not enough for Nash to be a template for him, how awesome will he be?

"You have improved, my skills are not stagnant, the bearded man wants to compete with me, and then increase the beard by a few centimeters." Wu Huang decided to strengthen his individual attack in the second half, he does not have only one mode, and "scoring mode" is also his area of expertise.

The second half of the game restarted, the score was 36:38, and in terms of score, it was a close final.

"Honey, I know you're the best." Kristen whispered to cheer on her boyfriend, and Emma Watson smirked beside her, her best friend seemed to be really in love with this Hugo.

After Emperor Wu appeared, he extended a thumbs up in the direction of his parents, which was also a way to cheer himself up.

"It's up to you." Before the start of the Wu Huang game, he whispered to DeRozan.

"No problem." DeRozan knows his mission, and Harden's big ass is uncomfortable.

In the first half, Harden's big ass arched Wu Huang and went to DeRozan, and in the end, even Bart, who was two meters tall, couldn't bear it and was almost overturned, and it is said that even Barkley couldn't help but pay attention to this side when commenting on other games, and that's what it means.

Wu Huang received the serve from his teammates, the first attack in the second half, he did not plan to fake his hands, the equalizer was a good boost to the morale of his side, this kind of key ball he only believed in himself.

Strictly speaking, Wu Huang is not a pure point guard, he has a desire to score in his heart, but also has a selfless side, this contradictory combination may make him an alternative in the eighties and nineties, but modern basketball is more and more inclined to score, and at the same time, some people especially like the past and the present, but let him have a place for this contradictory combination, this is an era of double guards.

In the first attack of the second half, Wu Huang chose to force himself, he did not even seek the cooperation of his teammates, first let his teammates run without the ball to distract the opponent's attention, and then a simple change of direction hit the inside.

The University of Arizona didn't expect Wu Huang to turn on the scoring mode so quickly, and by the time he reacted, Wu Huang had already completed a layup and scored two points again.

Harden had to respond to Wu's offense, and USC opted for a two-to-three position, concentrating the defense on the interior and letting the three-point line out.

Everything in this world follows one principle - there are gains and losses.

Therefore, when the strength of the two teams is similar, they must make decisive trade-offs, and the team that is timid must be a fish belly, and the strong team will make a decision as soon as possible after forming a stalemate, regardless of whether the choice is correct or not, at least they will not lose the game because of hesitation.

The price of USC letting go of the perimeter was that Harden hit two three-pointers in quick succession early in the second half, but they didn't let the opponent score inside the box, so it was difficult to calculate whether the score was worth it or not, and the scores of the two teams continued to rise alternately.

Wu Huang's side has continuously used his personal ability to score points, Yahoo Sports has been questioning Wu Huang's breakthrough ability, but today's Wu Huang has been using breakthroughs to score points for the team, which is tantamount to slapping him in the face.

It was only when the Chinese was determined to inflict damage under the basket that many people saw the advantage in explosiveness and speed, and Derek Glasser of the University of Arizona was nearly 10cm shorter than Wu Huang, but still couldn't stop his breakthrough.

"Hugo isn't just a shooter, he's a scorer, he can attack the basket, grab rebounds and play fast breaks, and he can shoot from long range, he's an all-around scorer. ”

Harden didn't think his scoring ability was inferior to Wu Huang, and the second half of the game became a big offensive competition between the two teams.

Floyd chose to press Jeff Ayers on the inside and stick to man-to-man on the outside, allowing DeRozan to continue to defend Harden alone.

His plan was simple, Arizona also chose to shoot man-to-man defense in the second half, and also did not use the bag to deal with Wu Huang, at least in the area above the free throw line, they did not do the bag and trap.

At this time, it is a direct battle between the two pairs of cores, and the effect of Derek Glasser defending Wu Huang is definitely not as good as DeRozan's defense of Harden, although they can't defend each other, but DeRozan also has the aura of genius no matter what, and he is stronger than Harden in terms of athleticism, and can cause more trouble to Harden.

So in such a situation, Wu Huang can naturally play a greater threat than Harden, and will have more chances to score.

The University of Arizona also made the choice, wrapping up all the ball handlers near the box but giving the high post to USC to shoot.

One on both sides is betting on the opponent's inaccurate three-point shot, and the other is betting on the opponent's inaccurate two-point shot, and in the end, it is the personal ability of the two cores.

Both Wu and Harden quickly spotted their shortcomings, as their high jumpers and three-pointers failed to deliver as their coaches and fans had hoped for in key moments of the game.

In the first ten minutes of the second half, Wu Huang shot 3 of 8 and Harden shot 2 of 7, and neither of them scored to help the team pull away.

At 11 minutes and 11 seconds of the second half, the score was 46:46, and the two teams were tied again.

At this time, the test has become the on-the-spot arrangement of the coaches of the two teams, to see who can change faster, see who has more pre-game preparation, and who can get closer to the victory of the game.

Floyd and Scott Pera are both very good head coaches, but the latter was still coaching the high school basketball team last year and only started his NCAA career this year.

At the same time, the positions of the core of the two teams are different, which also plays a role at the moment. Don't forget, Wu Huang is a point guard, and he can not make scoring his number one priority. But Harden is a shooting guard, and as the name suggests, he must take scoring as his own responsibility, supplemented by playmaking, or he will steal the task of point guard.

Floyd called a timeout, decisively let Wu Huang roll aside, reformulated the tactics with DeRozan and Gibson as the offensive point, and Wu Huang returned to the core of his organization.

Scott Pera was not so decisive, he was able to get the head coach position of Arizona State, and thanks to bringing Harden to Arizona, he did not dare to let Harden hand over the ball.

"Hugo, what makes a great playmaker?" Floyd asked during a pause.

"Controlling the basketball, being a tactical initiator, being able to pass the ball to the right players at the right time, and having the ability to finish the offense yourself." Wu Huang understood what his coach meant, and replied incorrectly.

"DeMarr, what is a shooting guard?" Freud praised Emperor Wu for having a big picture in his heart, and he replied like this, obviously knowing his plans, so he asked DeRozan with great relief.

DeRozan was asked stupidly at once, his IQ was a little insufficient at the moment, and he was at a loss, not knowing how to answer.

"Stupid!" Freud cursed in his heart, and he had no choice but to look at Emperor Wu again.
