Chapter 34: Being Scorned

"Chan, this year is our good opportunity, right?"

Suddenly someone spoke again, but the middle-aged uncle looked a little unfamiliar and was obviously not from the team.

The middle-aged uncle looked at Chen Mo with burning eyes, and it seemed as if he saw his lover he fell in love at first sight.

You know, the team's locker room is not something that ordinary people can come into.

"This is the head of the UCLA Fan Association, Harry Carey."

Capono spoke again, his eyes full of expectations, which was the expectation for victory and the championship.

"I……"

Chen Mo really wanted to agree at once, isn’t he the champion? If he doesn’t get three or five or seven, how can he be worthy of me who is in the system?

However, when I opened my mouth, I couldn't say this sentence.

If he just let go of his mouth, he would of course agree. Anyway, he wouldn't have to be the person in charge.

But there are some things that are not enough to say.

Looking at his teammates who were extremely expecting and who were full of expectations, he knew too well what this meant.

Chen Mo is not a god, he has confidence, but he is not yet disdainful to everyone.

He would also feel scared, what if he could not fulfill this promise?

The middle-aged uncle Harry saw Chen Mo's hesitation and was obviously a little anxious, so he hurriedly said.

"Chen, it's been 95 years since the last time UCLA won the championship, and it's almost ten years.

We desire a championship, and we also need a championship, please!”

Harry's voice is extremely sincere. It can be said that this is his greatest desire as a fan.

Seeing such a sincere look, to be honest, Chen Mo couldn't bear to refuse.

To put it bluntly, he is just an ordinary person with the most ordinary emotions.

"I will do my best!"

In the end, Chen Mo still did not dare to agree, because doing so was irresponsible to himself and others.

Harry was a little disappointed, but he was still very excited because this year's UCLA does have great potential.

"Chan, they really need this promise.

You may not know that the team's performance has been poor in recent years and many fans have been lost.

Without fans' attention, it will only make UCLA more difficult, and both results and admissions will become difficult.

So, they need a promise and even more so, I will assist you."

After Harry left, Capono found Chen Mo and said apologetically.

"Chen, and I, I'm about to graduate from college, I know I can't enter the NBA, I hope I can have a good ending."

"It's true, Chen, we're ready."

"And me!"

...

Not only Capono, but also veteran players such as Michael Fei, but also newcomers such as Cummings also support Chen Mo.

After defeating Duke University, everyone's spirits changed and they were full of expectations for this season.

Capono smiled and said, "Chan, the boss of UCLA, you will lead us, right?"

Capono's tone was very sincere, and it could be seen that he could even give up his identity as the boss of the team.

As the boss of the team today, in fact, he is the one who should make promises.

Unfortunately, in the past 4 years, the higher the expectations of fans for him, the more they became.

Until now, Chen Mo was born, and finally let fans see hope again, especially after defeating Duke University.

Therefore, this promise must be spoken by him.

Why do every team set goals at the beginning of the season just to attract fans' attention?

However, the team's eyes set by the team are definitely of different significance than what they say as the team's core.

Chen Mo smiled bitterly and said, "I will do my best."

There is no way, the NCAA competition system is destined to win the championship.

Especially the single-game knockout system in the championship, a mistake may ruin a year of hard work.

Having said that, Chen Mo will naturally work hard to do it and strive for good results.

It is obvious that Harry, a very kind-looking fat uncle, will definitely not be idle.

Chen Mo said that he would do his best, but he knew what he would become in Harry's mouth.

If he does, he will become the hero of the entire UCLA. If he fails, he will inevitably be criticized.

I am a little helpless, but I am also a little excited, expectant and uncertain. Isn’t this the biggest charm of basketball?

If everything is as it seems and everything is expected, what's the point?

Chen Mo did not rush to train, but looked through the various newspapers bought by his teammates.

There is no way. He used to read news through his mobile phone, so he had no habit of buying newspapers at all.

As UCLA players, everyone’s focus is also very unified, that is, about sports events.

In addition to the Los Angeles Basketball Newspaper's extensive coverage of UCLA, the same is true for other media.

As a strong NCAA historical team, UCLA is still very popular in the fan market.

Although UCLA has achieved average results over the years, don't forget that in this game, they defeated the powerful Blue Devils.

Of course, the title is not as exaggerated as the Los Angeles Basketball Newspaper, but major media are more optimistic about UCLA's performance this season.

Los Angeles Sports News: UCLA swept the Blue Devils, and the Pacific Division is reviving.

Southern California: Who is the overlord of the Pacific Division this year?

UCLA News: Great three-pointers, great players!

...

Not only UCLA has received great attention, but even Chen Mo has been widely reported.

If he was reported before because of his top scorer, then Chen Mo is now beginning to be truly noticed by the American basketball community.

Scouts from major teams have begun to produce scout reports about Chen Mo, which will soon appear in the manager's offices of each team.

Perhaps because of Chen Mo's promise and the expectations of fans, the UCLA Bruins are becoming more and more nervous.

During training, Coach Steve Laven even found that everyone became much more active.

Especially those older people will graduate next year or leave the team, and now they will no longer be stumbled.

In such training, the time comes to December, and the new ESPN draft predictions for the NBA are newly released.

Chen Mo was on the list, but the result was not particularly gratifying, and the first round ended.

What does this mean? ESPN is optimistic that Chen Mo is selected, but it is only the last few in the first round.

Although this year is the year of the draft, this result still makes Chen Mo a little unhappy.

You know, now he averages 3555 per game, which is so exaggerated that he has no friends.

Although I only played two games, the two exciting wins were also very telling.

Unfortunately, the so-called ESPN experts chose to turn a blind eye, or they didn't care at all.

Coach Steve knew that Chen Mo would participate in the NBA draft this year, and he specially comforted him.

"Don't listen to those experts talking nonsense. Do they understand basketball? Believe me, Chen, the NBA is your stage."

Chen Mo nodded with a smile, but it is impossible to say that he doesn't care at all.
