Chapter 399: University of Southern California
Coach Karl's expectation was not wrong at all, and when the training was over and everyone returned to the locker room, Mike and the others couldn't wait to ask Chen Feng and Charles. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Chen Feng and Charles glanced at each other and repeated what Coach Carl said.
After listening, everyone fell silent, their expressions were very complicated, and they were also full of solemnity, obviously not at peace in their hearts.
"Brothers. Seeing the thoughtful expressions of the crowd, Charles spoke, "The coach is right, we must defend the glory of UCLA. We haven't won a championship in 20 years, but why don't we try it and make a splash?"
"Yes. Chen Feng also said, "Charles and I will do our best to compete, so that those who dare to underestimate us UCLA know that we are powerful, so that they will no longer dare to despise us." However, the two of us alone are not enough, we need you, brothers. ”
Everyone looked up, their eyes flashing with brilliance, their expressions excited, but with a hint of hesitation. In the end, it was Austin who spoke first: "We ...... Okay?"
"yes, can we really do it?" said Renard.
Attacking the championship, Karl didn't say it last year, and he didn't say it this year, and everyone seems to have forgotten that there seems to be this in the goal.
Therefore, when Chen Feng and Charles talked about this, everyone couldn't accept it for a while.
Fortunately, Coach Carl was thoughtful and did not say it himself, but borrowed the mouths of Chen Feng and Charles, so that it was just a discussion and discussion, not an order, and it would not make everyone feel too much pressure, because all this is still being discussed.
"Okay, why not?" Chen Feng raised his tone, "Don't forget, we won all ten games in the preseason, and don't forget that we only beat the University of Washington Huskies yesterday." Are you so unconfident, do you look down on yourself like this?"
Everyone's eyes lit up, flames lit up in their eyes, and they shook their heads in unison: "No." ”
"Isn't that it?" Chen Feng spread his hands, "We have the strength, but we lack a goal, a momentum to move forward." Now that we have the goal, as long as we have the momentum to attack the championship, why can't we give it a go?"
Speaking of this, everyone's minds also came alive, and their eyes burst out with fighting spirit, and their momentum also rose.
Seeing that the effect had been achieved, Charles finally added: "Austin, Renard, Douglas, you are also juniors this year. You're graduating next year, haven't you planned for your future, don't you want to be a professional?"
The three of them were shocked.
"Brothers, it's not just for the school, it's for the team, it's for yourselves. "Think about it, if we can win the championship, then you're going to be famous and get more attention." When the time comes, you may be able to get a contract and become a professional player. Isn't it true that our dream of playing in the first place was to get into the NBA? Shouldn't we work hard for it, shouldn't we fight for it?"
In fact, these words were discussed by Charles and Chen Feng.
From Karl's office, the two began to discuss, since they want to aim for a championship, it can't just be a matter of two people, but the whole team.
So, they have to bring everyone on the team together and let everyone have a belief in their hearts to fight for the honor of UCLA and fight for the championship!
And now they are saying these words with only one purpose, and that is to give everyone a goal - NCAA championship!
When it comes to themselves, the Austin trio finally made up their minds that they must fight whether they succeed or not.
What's more, they also know that now the team has Charles, Chen Feng, and Abraham, and the squad is strong enough.
If you don't seize this opportunity and do your best, then I'm afraid there will be no chance again in the future.
Therefore, the three of them nodded in unison and said, "Charles, we understand." In the future, we will play every game as if it were the last game, and we will never be lazy in training every day. No, it's not just that we're not lazy, we're willing to double down on our training. ”
Seeing that the three of Austin had been done, Charles breathed a sigh of relief, as long as everyone had the right attitude, it would be a good start.
For the others, Chen Feng and Charles have nothing to say, just tell them, don't let people look down on them, and to win respect, you can only rely on yourself!
Everyone agreed, but Green and Richard were obviously not interested.
This is also understandable, they are not newcomers, newcomers are full of longing for the future, with great revenge, just a little, it is easy to inspire fighting spirit. But Green and the two are already juniors, but they can't even play the main team in the team, let alone become professional players.
So they don't have much interest in it, and all they are looking for is a scholarship.
For this, Chen Feng and Charles have no good way, they can only influence each other step by step in the future.
"Brothers, from today onwards, we have only one goal, the championship!" Chen Feng stretched out his hand. Everyone also stretched out their hands, and the hands of more than a dozen people were superimposed on each other, shouting in unison: "Goal, championship!"
......
The next day, the UCLA Bruins played their second game of the regular season on the road to USC.
The full name of the University of Southern California is the University of Southern California, abbreviated as USC, and like UCLA, it belongs to the Pacific 12 University Alliance, and is located in Los Angeles. Therefore, it is more convenient for UCLA, and it takes just over an hour to get there by school bus.
Half past seven in the afternoon.
With the whistle blowing, the game officially began, and on the commentary stand, a commentator began to introduce the starting lineups of the two sides, first the away team UCLA, the starting lineup was: "Center Charles, power forward Austin, small forward Renard, scoring guard Douglas, organization guard Chen Feng." ”
Then there is the home team, USC, and the starting lineup is: "Center Leo, power forward Brandt, small forward Oliver, scoring guard Simon, playmaking guard Ellitt." ”
Under the watchful eyes of more than 10,000 spectators, the referee threw the ball into the air, and Charles flew up and jumped up, pressing the opponent's center Leo, and touched the ball first.
With a "snap", the ball was slapped by Charles into Chen Feng's hand.
Taking the ball, Chen Feng did not pause at all, one turned around and shook off the opponent's guard Ellitt, who was sticking to him, and the other accelerated over the middle line and directly hit the opponent's inner line.
"Stop him, damn it!" began to shout from the audience.
Unfortunately, Chen Feng's speed was too fast, and the USC players had already completed the layup before they could react, and scored two points first.
