Gibson received four fouls and had to go out and rest. He could not return to the court for most of the game.

USC’s substitute power forward Andrew Agnes is 205cm tall, but he lacks athletic ability and has nothing to do on both offense and defense. Brockman wants to deal with him without any effort, and USC’s inside line is in danger.

Emperor Wu didn't plan to surrender. Although it was difficult to play without the inside, as long as he and DeRozan played at the level, they could still win.

The two inside players of the University of Southern California have completely become protective tools at this time, and Wu Huang and DeRozan have taken turns to make breakthroughs.

Five minutes later, USC still maintained the lead.

Wu Huang broke through one after another and sent a second pass to his teammates. In the second half, Bart made a three-pointer, and received a breakthrough from Wu Huang twice and made a three-pointer. In addition, DeRozan has been attacking Brockman. The two guards at USC have a clear division of labor, one is responsible for getting points for the team, and the other is to complete the tasks assigned by Floyd.

In the second half, USC still played well under the leadership of two defenders and did not lose the upper hand.

Brockman is better than DeRozan in the college league. He can control his own foul rules well. DeRozan's several breakthroughs only earn a little score, and he has never completed the task assigned by the coach. Blackman's defense is very smart. His defense is not aimed at blocking, but mainly affects the opponent's shooting star. He plays very calmly and cunningly.

Gibson has stronger running and jumping skills and is better at blocking opponents. However, his fouls are largely due to excessive pursuit of blocking. Today, Gibson's excellent bounce and explosive power did not exchange him for many blocks, but instead allowed him to get four fouls early.

At the 12th minute and 20th second half, the score reached 50:49. The University of Washington used its inside advantage to slowly narrow the score. The players played very calmly and did not feel anxious at all.

However, the University of Southern California was a little too aggressive amid the cheers of home fans, and they were eager to widen the gap.

Wu Huang quickly discovered the problem. DeRozan's breakthrough has not caused Brockman to foul. At the beginning, his scoring efficiency was pretty good, but the University of Washington slowly adapted to DeRozan's breakthrough, and then he dealt with it better and better. If he continues like this, he is no longer efficient. It is time to change his playing style.

Floyd also realized the problem and replaced DeRozan in advance. Emperor Wu began to control the rhythm on the court. They had to fight for a while to counterattack and accumulate strength for the final decisive battle.

This is true for basketball and football matches. Offense and defense cannot be carried out without restraint, and need to be relaxed and relaxed. If the attack is not effective for a while, you must slow down the rhythm, and then find the opportunity to launch an attack. This is the so-called game rhythm, and it is also an important measure to measure whether a point guard is excellent.

"Rhythm" is difficult to describe in detail. It does not have a fixed formula and cannot be calculated. How to master it depends entirely on the coach and players' understanding of the game, as well as a lot of game experience.

Wu Huang's feeling just now told him that if the team's rhythm is unstable and continues to attack hard, he may be taken away by the opponent's wave of flowing away.

USC has been unable to conquer for a long time, its momentum has begun to decline, its players' ideas have begun to increase, and its attention will naturally begin to disperse. This is the time when it is most likely to be counterattacked by its opponent. A mature team will choose to stabilize at this time and turn from offense to defensive. Otherwise, it will be too late to defend when it is counterattacked.

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

At this time, USC replaced two new forces. Even if their personal abilities are not as good as the previous two, at least their energy is full. This is the art of rotation. Bart and DeRozan attacked for so long and let them move into defense all at once, it may have the effect of half the result with twice the effort, because they are likely to be unable to adjust the rhythm.

Emperor Wu was not replaced. As a core member of the organization that controls the entire team, if he can't even adjust, the University of Southern California will not have to play.

Less than a minute after the substitution, the University of Washington indeed launched an unpredictable attack. They held it for almost ten minutes and kept on the defensive. All they were waiting for was the moment when the morale of the USC players declined.

The players at the University of Washington were full of energy at this time. This counterattack was like the entrance of the garden being dug open. The fierce firepower was far beyond Wu Huang's expectations. He expected the opponent's plan, but did not count that his side could not stop such a fierce attack, and the score was quickly overtaken.

Floyd hurriedly called a timeout. He couldn't understand why there were three college stars in his team, and the game was played at his home court. The time, place and people were all occupied, so why was he still so passive?

This is because he didn't know that the University of Washington was the Pacific Tenth League Championship champion in this year's time and space, and its strength should never be underestimated.

"Keep calm, it's a test for you. Next, we put the center of defense on the outside and inside. They make a lot of three-pointers and spend all their energy on the mid-range shooting range to hit the basket. We shouldn't come out and defend in the penalty area to break through. The other three blocked the three-point line. If they shoot at mid-range, give some pressure appropriately." Floyd finished setting up the defense and speeded up his speech, saying: "The offensive end is equally important to us. When the inside gets rebounds, the three outsiders immediately make a fast break and play their offensive and defensive transitions. But if there is no chance to counterattack, we will run out 35 seconds and stabilize the rhythm. In short, remember that the fierce tide may not be blocked, but it will fade by itself. I will tell you when to launch a counterattack. But before that, you must freeze yourself, stay absolutely calm, and not be defeated by the opponent's attack."

Floyd's tactics are right or wrong, but the experience he instilled in the players and the way he plays in the game is absolutely correct, which is something that college players should learn. And he is right, the University of Washington's offense is really like a wave, and a timeout cannot stop them at all. USC is like a small boat in the storm, and it is always beaten by huge waves at any time.

In the second half, Wu Huang had no rest at all. In the 9th minute and 30th, he predicted the passing route of the University of Washington this time. He grabbed a steal with a long arm and quickly counterattacked and scored two points.

"Hurry up, we are like fishing boats that are storms now, but there are 12 people on this boat. As long as we work together and fight with the wind and rain together, we will definitely win in the end." After Wu Huang intercepted the ball and scored, he found that Gibson was not there, so he decided to motivate his teammates because he found that Brockman and Isia Thomas on the opposite side had to shout a few words to his teammates after each goal. Unfortunately, the content was not very good, and he felt that he could do better than them.

After all, the Memorial Stadium was also the venue for two Olympic Games. The on-site recording equipment performed well. This time, Wu Huang's voice was clearly heard in the ears of the fans on the scene. His performance was indeed very leader-like at this moment, and many fans applauded him.

Floyd nodded with satisfaction on the sidelines. Wu Huang's performance was exactly what he wanted to see. This Chinese language expression ability is much better than that of Gibson, and he is the most suitable candidate to be the team captain.

The score was 54:57. Although the University of Southern California fell three points behind, they were not defeated by their opponents, but were patiently waiting for the coach's counterattack order, just like the University of Washington before.
