<h4>Chapter 370 Business and Basketball 4</h4>


    Jake had even more training because he had to do his daily training with Zack and Coach Davis for marathons and 10,000 meters, but Jake didn’t care because he thought his training was getting too easytely.


    Since he greatly increased his statistics he did not change his training for marathon racing and the 10,000-meter training was no longer a challenge for him after Jake got used to running 3 times a day.


    Jake had regretted not asking Coach Davis to increase his training before the holidays were over, now he hadmitted himself to train like this until the next vacation in the middle of next year.


    Even if he still had one more point in resistance statistics and one point in agility next year, it wouldn’t change much even if he changed his training now, next year Jake was already thinking of breaking his world record again with a much longer time faster than the current one to ensure his record was not threatened for a few


    But to do that he needed to further improve his training time to make sure he was able to do that in marathons if he wanted to, next year would be a lot busier for Jake with the recording of The Matrix and also the possible draft for the NBA.


    With that, Jake thought that possibly his marathon training would be impaired on this vacation, and that was bad for his ns to break more records, as Jake had already decided that he hoped he could do what he nned for next year.


    Maybe it was even good that the next basketball season was shorter with only 50 games because of the block, so Jake would y for less time and have more time to adapt to his new NBA routine.


    But what Jake already knew was that if they could always reach the finals, he would have only 4 months to rest at home, and that was the goal of all teams always reaching the final and perhaps always being the NBA champions.


    What Jake knew was that he did not want to abandon the marathons and at least the Olympics would ensure that he would always find time topete, at the Olympics, he could win the marathon and other sports such as the 10,000 meters and 5,000 meters he would be prepared forpeting in 2000.


    Thinking about the intensity of the NBA basketball season showed that it had been a great idea for Jake to get into college and y for two seasons, at Jake University he even though it was intense to have 38 games like the Tar Heels team would have this season.


    But in the NBA there would be more than 80 games a season and that would test almost all of Jake’s resistance after winning so many marathons, so Jake figured he wouldn’t have so much time to practice marathon racing.


    The stamina bars that Jake hardly ate anymore would be used again so that he could avoid injury even though he was willing to y games, that was what Jake wanted and he was naturally prepared for it.


    But Jake would have to think about it only after the current season ended, after 4 days of training came the day of the next game for the Tar Heels team, the yers were rested and wanted to win this game for Christmas without losing any games.


    After a few hours, both teams were ready for this game, it was the first game against a team from the same conference team of Tar Heels and it would be a game as a visitor, so it was better to win this game because team Tar Heels would still have to y for least once again against the Florida State team.


    Last season the Florida State team had a very good seasoning in second in the NIT tournament, and this season even if the team wasn’t going to y so well it was still a good season.


    Even so, they couldn’t expect the Tar Heels yers to be so eager to win this game even with an 11-win streak, but the Florida State team also wanted to win, so it wouldn’t be an easy game.


    In the first quarter of the game, Team Tar Heels pressed in attack and also put pressure on the defense and left Florida State with difficulty ying both defense and attack.


    Jamison had not enjoyed ying that game badly and so still wanted to score a lot even in that game, it also encouraged Carter who had been doing a below-average season in those early games.


    Carter had only a few good games this season and other games he just scored over 14 points and was already satisfied, even Williams who stayed a few games out of the team and was having difficulty in the three-point shots was making more points than him this season.


    Seeing as Jamison who had several games making more than 20 points annoyed by ying just one game badly made Carter also want to y better, after all, he was friends with Jamison and Jake too andst season the three had great games.


    This season he was not taking advantage of Jake who was a great PG on the team to assist him and was pleased to y normally and seeing the team win, Jake had already told him and Jamison a few times that they had to stand out in all the games to show that they had the ability to be team stars in the NBA.


    With Jamison and Carter ying well in this game Jake decided to take advantage and make more assists to further show his qualities as PG as well, with the three yings so well at the end of the first quarter Tar Heels was winning with a big lead.


    Jake yed for 20 minutes in this first quarter and made 14 points, 6 assists, 4 rebounds, and 4 steals, with this great first quarter of the Tar Heels team they had aplished their goal in that first quarter.


    So in the second quarter, team Tar Heels could slow down the attack and keep up the pressure on the defense, the Florida State team needed to win the game, and yers would be more anxious and give more freedom for the team to attack.


    Just as Coach Guthridge said the Florida State team tried to press the offense from the start and the Tar Heels team increased the pressure on the defense as well, so Jake was ying well in defense as in other games and stealing in some ys that could end in points for the Florida State team.


    Jamison and Carter still wanted to keep scoring in the second quarter and even though Jake had slowed the game he was still assisting both of them, sometimes he would still move on to Okja and Williams who had a lot more freedom to attack with the defense all concentrated. in Jamison, Carter, and Jake.


    Just as the experts said Team Tar Heels was a very strong team offensively and if there was no team that attacked better than them or it was better to defend the whole game, others said Team Tar Heels would only lose if some yers were ying. bad in the game.


    But even so, it was hard to see this happening as this season it was hard to find a game where the team Tar Heels scored less than 70 points in a game, Jake also despite making the great game as PG making many assists was for sure the yer who scored the most points.


    In addition, the Tar Heels team was a team that also yed very well in defense which made it even harder to y against them, Jake had a very high average of the tail and steals and Jamison also had an average of over 9 rebounds per game.


    So at the end of the game, the Tar Heels team managed to win by scoring 98 points against the Florida State team’s 65 points, a game that was supposed to be more difficult ended up with a great advantage in the great game of Jake, Carter, and Jamison as well.


    In that second quarter, Jake yed for 20 minutes and scored 16 points, 6 assists, 4 rebounds, and 5 steals with one more double-double Jake was ying very well and making many assists with the help of Jamison who was having a great season.


    Just as the yers wanted they could spend this happier Christmas with a 12-win streak and no losses this season, even if it was even more pressure on them it was good to show how the team was doing well this season.


    Coach Guthridge was very happy and pleased with the performance of the Tar Heels yers, especially with Jake and Jamison who had been showing why they had the best team of the season.


    The sports media was already talking about the possibility that the Tar Heels team could again win the NCAA title this season, many thought it was difficult but still had confidence because Jake was on that team.


    It had been a long time since a yer had been that prominent in a college team, maybe just Kobe Bryant brought that much attention, but decided to go straight to the NBA and was ying well in the Los Angeles Lakers team even though he wasn’t as prominent as Jake had currently.


    Many yers had great seasons at the university and then failed to maintain the same performance in the NBA, but Jake was on another level keeping since the freshman season an average of over 32 points per game in the season and still winning the NCAA title along with the prize of the best yer.


    The next day Jake went back to Miami to spend Christmas with his mother, this time Eva already knew that Jake would go home and made the decision to close the restaurant after the 23rd until the 26th when Jake would return to university.
