The Overlord of Basketball: 2K Possession

Chapter 55 University of Arizona
In a normal game, the only dissatisfaction is that the hot derby that was heavily publicized before the game is not worthy of the name.

The fans and the scene are very lively, but when it comes to the game, there is not much suspense.

"MVP, MVP..."

Just as Chen Mo left the field, fans shouted suddenly.

To be honest, even Chen Mo was surprised, after all, this "MVP" is not just shouting casually.

Only when the absolute core of a team and the fans fully support it will there be such unified cheers.

"Chen Mo, come on!"

Not only that, among the countless cheers, Chen Mo also heard the familiar sound of cheering.

There are many Chinese students studying abroad at UCLA, and more and more people like to watch Chen Mo's games.

Chen Mo quickly waved to the fans, and then sat in the rest area, enjoying the envy of his teammates.

Envy, but not envy.

When you surpass others by a little bit, others will envy you; when you surpass others by a large margin, others will envy you.

UCLA players know very well that such treatment is definitely not something they can have.

Even Kapono said enviously: "It's been a long time since the voice of "MVP" over Polly Arena has been heard."

It's normal. After all, UCLA's performance has been mediocre in recent years. Fans are absolutely dissatisfied with this performance.

Moreover, no player has shown such dominance, and the cheers of "MVP" are not enjoyed by everyone.

"This "MVP" is not just about me, but about our entire team."

Naturally, Chen Mo would not admit this statement foolishly, but said hastily and modestly.

Otherwise, people are just a little envious at first, but if they are not careful, they will become jealous.

"Nowadays, the fans' expectations are so high. If we don't get something back this year, it may be hard to explain."

Hearing what Chen Mo said, everyone's eyes lit up: "Do we have a chance this year?"

"No matter what, you have to work hard. I'm about to graduate, and I don't want to leave with regrets."

"Yes, if I get good results this year, maybe I can also enter the NBA."

……

Everyone knows the current situation of the team, and the state is very good.

If we say that last time, Chen Mo's statement was just to let everyone see a hope, but now they can really see it.

More importantly, Chen Mo successfully changed the topic, and the conversation between the big guys completely changed direction.

Perhaps because they could really see the opportunity, in the next few days, everyone felt as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

Not only does he work hard during training, but he also unreservedly releases it during competitions.

St. John's University, as well as Arizona State University, UCLA has won another wave of two consecutive victories.

So far this season, UCLA has won 12 consecutive victories without a single defeat. It is definitely the most dazzling team in the NCAA.

However, the next game will not be so easy, and UCLA will face a real challenge.

University of Arizona Wildcats.

In the previous season, that is, the 2000-2001 season, the University of Arizona missed the championship in the finals.

But reaching the finals and winning the runner-up already shows the strength of this team.

With Arenas and others entering the NBA, the University of Arizona's performance declined last season, but it was still at the level of the Sweet Sixteen.

This year, with the growth of Luke Walton and Channing Frye, and the addition of newcomer Iguodala, the team's strength has been greatly enhanced.

So far, the University of Arizona has only lost one game, which is the team with the best record in the Pacific Ten Conference except UCLA.

Moreover, this game was lost to the weak University of Louisiana Tigers.

In that game, the state of Frye and Salem was extremely poor, allowing the Tigers to seize the opportunity and eventually lost by one point.

If it weren't for the accident of this game, the University of Arizona is very likely to be on a winning streak.

As the two strongest teams in the same competition area, they will have a strong dialogue. This game is very likely to determine the top spot in the round robin.

On January 1th, at three o'clock in the afternoon, the game started at Polly Arena.

As the most important game in the round robin, it naturally attracted the attention of a large number of fans.

In the stands, there are not only more and more foreign students and Chinese, but also more and more Chen Mo's headshots and slogans.

It can be seen that the current Chen Mo has been fully recognized by UCLA fans.

"Hey bro, are you Chinese too? Are you from the same place as Chen?"

A Chinese student studying abroad was shocked by the atmosphere at the scene, and suddenly a Caucasian guy next to him asked.

"Yes, Chen and I come from the same province, so we can be regarded as fellow villagers."

Chinese students studying abroad are a little excited. In the past, when greeting Americans, they would always ask, are you Japanese or Korean?
But now, especially at UCLA, the treatment of their Huaguo international students has been greatly improved, and they are very popular.

As for the reason, it is naturally very simple, it is because of Chen Mo!

"Really? Great, you know? Chen can lead us to the championship this year."

……

"Hi Lori, see you again."

Lori Carr, a scout for the Suns, had a bad face. He really didn't want to say hello to this person.

Standing in front of him was none other than Hunter Rubin.

There is only one possibility for Hunter Rubin to appear here, and that is that the Heat have already targeted Chen Mo.

After all, among the two teams, there are not many players who are qualified to attract Hunter Rubin's attention.

Needless to say, UCLA, Kapono has already abdicated, this is Chen Mo's team.

As for the University of Arizona, although the team is also very strong, it's just that they are strong as a whole, not individually.

Knowing Hunter Rubin's purpose, Lowry was still a little unwilling and asked quickly.

"Hey Hunter, are you observing Chen too?"

"Of course, it's a good player and one of the best this year."

"But Chen hasn't declared for the draft yet."

"It's still early in the draft, and I'm sure he will be."

……

Not just Lowry and Hunter Rubin, there are not a few scouts on the scene.

Today's Chen Mo has attracted the attention of a large number of NBA teams, and he also has the qualifications.

The game officially started, Channing Frye jumped to the ball, and the University of Arizona took the lead in attacking.

Channing Frye asked for the ball from the middle distance, broke through against Hollins, and scored the ball toughly.

The offense launched in the middle distance is definitely the most difficult part of UCLA to defend.

Double-teaming will not only miss people, but also double-teaming in the middle distance, the opponent can easily pass the ball out.

If you don't double-team, you can only rely on Hollins to defend himself, which will undoubtedly increase his pressure.

No team is perfect. Since UCLA has chosen the run-and-gun tactic, there will naturally be problems in defense.

Moreover, as UCLA plays better and better, opponents are also studying their style of play and trying to limit it.
