Be happy with sports Chapter 375 - Business and Basketball 9

With the help of the system he had completely changed his and his mother's future and everyone who worked with him, now Jake was the best college basketball player who had enough skills to be one of the best players in the NBA.

Jake was also able to do something else that he loved to run and became one of the best athletes in the world by winning the most important marathons in the world and winning important gold medals like at the Olympics.

With that, he managed to get his mother out of the bad work which was one of the things that caused her death in his past life, and now she had a restaurant that was her dream and was very happy working with her friend Anna.

Thanks to the system Jake can also meet Tiffany and Clara who helped him a lot in his early years as a player before he even developed his skills, they also became important friends of his and even though in the future their path parted, Jake never would forget the friendship they had.

On this second chance of him, Jake also had the opportunity to make a great friendship with Joseph and even though they had gone away now Jake was sure they would be friends for a lifetime.

With this friendship he met Oliver and Matthew and using his future knowledge can help Matthew change his future as someone who would almost go bankrupt or have to sell his company to one of the most successful men with the digital camera company.

With that Jake also saw that he could use more of his knowledge of the future and what he had learned before going back in time, so he was able to work on a movie as an actor and use his knowledge to make great investments that would make him a millionaire in the future.

So after almost 9 years, Jake could say that he realized most of his dreams before turning back in time for his second chance, and maybe the other dreams he had could come true with the relationship between him and Kate becoming closer.

The next three years were now very important in Jake's future anyway, he would sell the shares, try to settle in the NBA and maybe start dating Kate and could still be on top of athletics at the upcoming Olympics and would be an actor of success.

These were Jake's wishes for years to come, and if those wishes came true, he could say that he had achieved everything he had dreamed of for his second chance, of course, Jake would not forget to continue to see to it that his mother would stay well for her that his life was perfect.

After this rest of almost 5 days and his birthday party, Jake felt much better for the next game that would be the next day, it was good that this game was a day after his birthday or could not make this celebration.

The next day came the day of the second team of Tar Heels this year, this would also be the first game of team Tar Heels this year playing at home at the Dean Smith Center, with the great season that the team had been having was sure that the fans would attend to support the team in this game.

The players of Team Tar Heels were rested too and ready for today's game, the opponent of today's game was Team Georgia Tech, Team Georgia Tech had a terrible last season and this season was much better.

This team had three very good players, but the team was not very strong thinking about attack and defense, so neither Coach Guthridge nor the players were concerned about this opponent.

"Today we will be following another game from the Tar Heels team this season, their first game at the Dean Smith Center this year and it all indicates another easy win for the Tar Heels team."

"It seems that the Georgia Tech team has some good players, but after a bad season with the new good players they couldn't make such a good team in just one season."

"And the Tar Heels team has been together since last season with multiplayer in the third year, and who joined the team last year was Jake who soon adapted to that team and helped them win the NCAA tournament last season."

"So we could say that the Tar Heels team has all the advantages for this game and with Jamison and Carter playing very well it will be difficult to hold back that team's attacks."

While being the favorite team to beat Coach Guthridge was careful that the players did not relax in this game, he asked Jake to attack well, but not with a very fast attack rate, and in defense was to focus on defending against the 2 best players on the Georgia Tech team and so they could disrupt the opponent's attacks.

Jake had more freedom in defense to try the steals to further disrupt the Georgia Tech team attack, with a player like Jake who was skilled at steals and the Tar Heels team always hampered his opponent's attacks more.

In the early minutes, Coach Guthridge asked Jake to organize the team to press into the attack without speeding up too much. Jake understood that Coach Guthridge wanted Team Tar Heels to open a good lead in the early minutes without risking too much.

Jake did something he normally didn't do in games so the opposing defense didn't expect that, instead of trying more assists to see how his teammates were doing, Jake tried a few three-point shots whenever he was free in the early stages minutes

So after 10 minutes of games, Jake already had 12 points and had attempted 5 shots from three points, plus Jake got 3 assists and 2 steals and the only play he missed ended with an offensive rebound from Jamison that made the 2 points.

So at the start of the game, Team Tar Heels already had a big advantage and Team Georgia Tech didn't even know how to react to that that had a little luck and skill, with this advantage on the scoreboard Team Tar Heels pressed more defense while kept attacking.

So by the end of the 1st half of the game, Tar Heels was winning with a good lead on the scoreboard, Georgia Tech's game strategy ended Jake's multiple three-point shots in the opening minutes.

Coach Guthridge was very pleased with this and now hoped the team would continue to attack while pressing on the defense so that when Georgia Tech tried to attack further, Tar Heels would have an easier time increasing the lead.

In this 1st half, Jake played for 20 minutes and scored 21 points, 6 assists, 4 rebounds, and 5 steals, with the good start of the game he had the Tar Heels team made it easier for the entire 1st half and now had the advantage in the game.

"What a great 1st half for the Tar Heels team, a very strong offensive and strong defense as well, with Jake scoring 12 points in 10 minutes with some assists and the Tar Heels team opened up an advantage on the scoreboard that left them comfortable to take control of the game."

"It's true, and Jake doesn't usually do something like this usually at the beginning of the game even though he has the ability to do it, so it took the Georgia Tech defense by surprise, a bad surprise for them."

"Now Georgia Tech will have to attack more to try to win and it will be difficult because the defense of the Tar Heels team was very good and Jake especially is very good both in attack and defense."

Just as the commentators said the Georgia Tech team had to try to attack more, but they haven't done that since the beginning of the 2nd half, they started with the defense still strong and trying to attack at a faster pace.

But it was not easy to pass through the defense of the Tar Heels team and even with a strong save the Tar Heels attack could still score, so after a few minutes Georgia Tech had no choice but to go all out to try to win.

In another move, Georgia Tech managed to score two points and Jake started with the ball from the backcourt before passing through the middle of the court he passed the ball to Carter on the left.

Carter and Jamison were good at this game and even though Williams was not so good at three-point shots he was still good at mid-range plays, Carter advanced with the ball and went to Okulaja on the right.

Okulaja held the ball for a while and then moved to Jamison farther left, Jamison caught the ball and then got rid of the opposing defense and ran it to layup and score 2 points for Tar Heels.

With Jake and Jamison playing so well they both drew the defense's attention even though they were directly involved in the play, just as in this play where two players were close to Jake and one was defending against him directly even though Jamison didn't even pass the ball to him.

In another move, Jake got a steal and ran quickly to the frontcourt when Georgia Tech players realized that Jake had caught the ball and tried to get back to defense quickly, but Jake was faster and finished with a dunk to make 2 more points for the Tar Heels team.
