Chapter 45: Undefeated in the Season?
In December, Wu Huang continued his excellent performance, especially on December 12, when the University of Southern California played at home against the University of California, Berkeley, Wu Huang scored 44 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists against Jerome Rand, which was the first 40+ in his college career, and also made his name appear on the NCAA section of many media again.
USC's 11-game winning streak this season after the win over Berkeley is still far from UCLA's 83-game winning streak, but Wu Huang has been identified as the favorite in this year's draft, and 11 games are enough to show most of his strength.
It is worth mentioning that on the day of the USC vs. Berkeley, the USC battle song composed by Taylor Swift was completed, and the USC also played the team song before the game.
This team anthem called "Who-We-Are" integrates a lot of sound effects on the basketball court, and even some CS game sound effects, the overall style of music tends to be electronic style, and the standard lyrics are only three sentences, that is, the two sentences that Wu Huang uses to motivate his teammates before each game - "Who-We-Are" and "Let's-show-them-who-we-are", and the last remaining sentence is Wu Huang's English name "Hugo", It is repeated dozens of times in the intro part of the song.
In addition to these three lyrics, the middle of the song is also mixed with several passionate commentaries from the live TV, but without exception, the content of the commentary is all Wu Huang's wonderful play.
So after listening to it a few times, Southern California fans realized that this song was not so much a team anthem, but an exclusive song written by Taylor Swift for Wu Huang, because there was no USC word in it at all, but the name "Hugo" was repeated dozens of times at the beginning of the song.
After listening to this song, Charles Barkley said that he liked this heart-warming song very much, and although the lyrics are too simple, the tune is unforgettable. At the end, Big Ass added: "This love song written by Miss Taylor Swift especially for Hugo should have touched the latter deeply." ”
This sentence made Wu Huangdan hurt, his harem had not yet been established, and it was about to explode.
"Did she write this song just for you?" Christine asked Emperor Wu out today, and as expected, asked in a roundabout way.
Christine has had insomnia in the last two days, and Wu Huang found that she came out with a pair of dark circles under her eyes today, although she wore a pair of glasses with large eye sockets as a cover, but it was still difficult to hide her sleepiness.
"Look at you, like you haven't slept in days?" Emperor Wu had a ghost in his heart, pretended not to hear it, and said with a distressed face.
"We've known each other for three months, haven't we?" Christine also pretended not to hear, and asked Emperor Wu again.
"We've known each other for four months." Emperor Wu remembers this clearly.
"And you've known her for a few months?" Christine finished speaking, and fixed her eyes on him.
"This ...... I don't remember exactly. Wu Huang pretended to think for a long time, "By the way, we met when we watched the Panda Sister competition together." ”
Christine lowered her head, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but show a smile, and after half a sound, she asked, "Are we good friends?" ”
Emperor Wu raised the cup containing the juice and put the straw in his mouth, signaling that he didn't have time to speak.
Christine didn't rush him, and the two of them each held a straw in their mouths, and they fell silent.
Wu Huang was silent, and he was silent for five minutes, until there was no liquid in the straw that was sucked up by him, he knew that he had to do everything possible to get through this difficulty, and this was just the beginning, since he chose this road that was destined to be scolded by tens of thousands of people, even if he climbed, he had to climb to the end.
"If it's in China, you should ask me, if you fall into the river with her, and you can't swim, which one will I save first?"
Emperor Wu had already made a decision in his heart, and he knew very well that this day would come sooner or later.
His relationship with Christine has been moving further than "friends", and since he didn't stop it, it was a willingness to associate with each other. So at this time, Christine will definitely choose to ask him clearly, and the two will either stop there, or continue to develop a deeper relationship.
"And who will you save?" Christine wasn't sure what Wu Huang meant by this.
"I'll save my girlfriend first." Wu Huang put down the cup, stared at Christine, and said solemnly.
Christine's heart pounded when she heard such an answer, but she didn't notice that Wu Huang's words were actually very problematic, but Christine was also embarrassed to let her continue to ask.
"I had insomnia last night, can you send me back?" Christine felt that she had gotten the answer she wanted today, and she couldn't hold back the joy in her heart, and she finally felt sleepy.
Emperor Wu also secretly wiped a handful of sweat in his heart, he could be sure at this time that he was really going to step on two boats, because the same thing he had already said to Taylor Swift the day before yesterday.
Christine asked him out today, and Wu Huang originally wanted the relationship with the other party to stop at the stage of "friend", but as soon as he saw Christine, Wu Huang immediately changed his mind again, and he did not hesitate to change it.
"I don't talk about anything like an American in this relationship." Emperor Wu sent Christine home, touched the red marks on her lips, and thought self-deprecatingly, "It's been four months, and I've only held my sister's hand a few times, if you don't count the position of the cheek, this is the first time to kiss, and no one will believe it." "Emperor Wu felt that he was too ink, he should have sent Christine directly to his home just now, and then AC her B hard!
#####
In December, USC has a total of 8 games to play, and Wu Huang's behavior of stepping on two boats has not affected his performance in the game, USC has been on the move, and their unbeaten record is also increasing one by one, and many fans have shouted the slogan "USC undefeated champion".
"Undefeated season" is not without precedent in the NCAA, and there are many such examples, after all, there are more than 30 leagues in the United States, and every few years there is a team that is undefeated in the season.
The University of Memphis was led by Derrick Rose last year to achieve such a "season undefeated" feat.
But if you want to "win the championship undefeated", it will be difficult.
"Undefeated in the season" means to be undefeated in the regular season and regional tournaments of your own league.
"Undefeated to win the championship" is to win the national championship all the way, and the difficulty will increase exponentially.
In the long history of the NCAA, there are only a handful of teams that can win the championship undefeated, and last year's University of Memphis also fell to the NCAA Finals, failing to create the miracle of "undefeated championship".
At the end of December, USC played against the University of Washington for the second time, and USC had a bad time in this game, Isaiah Thomas shot 8 of 9 in the first half, and the little assassins played an incredible first half, and at the same time made Wu Huang look bad.
Wu Huang only scored 6 points in the first half, and his hand encountered a frozen period today, I don't know if it was because when chatting with the cheerleaders before the game, he accidentally touched the part that should not be touched, which affected his character, he even missed a layup, and USC also fell behind by 21 points at halftime.
USC's Chinese-American core had a real hard time today, but the end result of the game proved that a true star player doesn't let himself play out of shape throughout the game.
Wu Huang's great performance began in the third minute of the second half, this time in the face of Isiah Thomas's defense, Wu Huang completed a wonderful turn, dribbled to the basket, and then jumped under the defense of two players from the University of Washington, twisted himself in the air, and even skated past two people in a row, and used a five-star "gliding lever" to move the basketball from the backs of the two defenders.
The two interior players at the University of Washington were broken down at this time!
Wu Huang's small waist was finally perfectly displayed through this ultra-difficult pull-up layup, and he stayed in the air as if he had stayed for a minute, until his opponent had landed, and he seemed to start to make moves.
This may be an exaggeration, but Wu Huang's pull-up layup by two people in the air was perfect, and the whole action was done in one go, fully demonstrating his waist and abdomen strength, super balance, excellent flexibility and courage!
Wu Huang's crazy performance was officially launched through this pull-up layup, and after that, he was like a tiger breaking free from the chains, and continued to use breakthroughs to force Isaiah Thomas, and no one at the University of Washington could stop him.
Throughout the second half, Wu Huang led the team to launch a crazy counterattack with sudden penalties, and unknowingly ...... Fans found that the difference between the two teams had become single digits, and in the blink of an eye...... The scores of the two teams began to alternate leads......
In the last six seconds of the game, the two teams battled 76:76, and USC had the ball.
In the last attack of this game, Wu Huang still chose to believe in himself, using a serious suspicious action, breaking through with one hand to slash away Isaiah Thomas, and then hit a mid-range pull-up jump shot, thus completing the first kill of his college career!
The players from the University of Washington naturally protested frantically, but the referee turned a blind eye, and Wu Huang's lore was effective!
Wu Huang scored 26 points, 8 rebounds and 9 assists in this game, of which 20 points were scored in the second half.
