It is believed that the USC Trojans basketball team has to reach the finals in the Pac 10 conference tournament in order to reach to NCAA tournament which begins on Thursday of next week and while it may seem like USC has been sleep walking for much of the season, the USC Trojans basketball team finally came to life last night in beating a game and very respected California team which they had lost to only a few weeks ago.
First I want to talk about what's been killing the USC Trojan basketball team all season long and that's a lack of depth. There is only a handful of quality NCAA basketball players on the USC basketball team and they are Daniel Hackett, Taj Gaibson, DeMar DeRozan (and he's only come on lately) and maybe Dwight lewis on some nights. And what I mean by quality NCAA basketball players is that USC coach Tim Floyd will usually only play 5-7 players all game long I have to assume because the other guys on the bench would probably embarrass themselves should they get any playing time...
Last night in their game against Califonia, USC may have found another guy, a freshman that may be able to take on even more minutes (he was already in the 7 man rotation) and flourish next to Taj Gibson. The 6'7 230 pound Leonard Washington is coming on at exactly the right time and so is fellow freshman DeMar DeRozan whom I thought was a bust as a "freshman one and done" this year... DeRozan is patient and the guy just picks his spots whenever he sees the opportunities and he never seems to force anything. Washington looks like he can be a good college big man at 6'7 and he's got good size to fill the lane.
The USC basketball team takes on UCLA tonight and they probably have to win this game to get into the NCAA tournament and the game is completely winnable for them as they've beaten UCLA earlier this year. UCLA is small up front but they do have a feisty and game center in Alfred Aboya and I think it would be a good game plan to attack UCLA inside early with Taj Gibson and Leonard Washington.
USC got by last night with a sub par game from Dwight Lewis and they need for him to play better if they expect to win tonight and advance in the NCAA tournament. Daniel Hackett is a gamer and a warrior but I think he may get beat by UCLA point guard Darren Collison tonight as he usually get beat by smaler quicker guards and vice versa Hackett can exploit the matchup by taking Collison to the hole and posting him up.
This is one of the only years where the talent level between UCLA and the USC basketball team is comparable and tonight UCLA stands in the way of USC's hopes to make it to the NCAA tournament. This will be a greta game tonight and USC will win if they can stay out of foul trouble.
