Chapter 566 West Conference Semifinals 6

"The game is over and the Los Angeles Lakers team got another victory, even though the Portland Trail Blazers team won the last game and playing at home, the Los Angeles Lakers team played a great game and won the third game of this phase of the playoffs."

"Now the Los Angeles Lakers team has 3 wins and the Portland Trail Blazers team has 1 win, if the Los Angeles Lakers team wins the next game playing in Los Angeles, the Lakers team will advance to the next phase of the playoffs and will reach West Conference Finals."

"In this game, the Los Angeles Lakers team changed the game strategy and started to press the attack with great intensity since the first quarter, Jake led the attack with 20 points only in the first quarter hitting 6 shots from 3 points in 7 attempts and also making 4 assists."

"The Los Angeles Lakers team did this because in the last games the Portland Trail Blazers team was having the advantage by making a strategy of making fouls in the last 2 quarters and thus preventing the Lakers team from making many points."

"It's true, that was a smart strategy because the Portland Trail Blazers team can't try to foul the entire game, so even if they decided to use the foul strategy in the first 2 quarters, the Los Angeles Lakers team would push the attack in the last few quarters and Portland Trail Blazers team players could not make fouls not to be expelled."

"Shaquille O'Neal, Rick Fox, and Dennis Rodman had an excellent performance in that game too, Shaq had 32 points and 11 rebounds, Rick had 19 points and Dennis managed to get 17 rebounds helping the Los Angeles Lakers team a lot in defense."

"Even so the highlight of the Los Angeles Lakers team was Jake who scored 46 points, 13 assists in that game helping a lot in the attack, Jake attracted 2 players from the Portland Trail Blazers team who had to make a double-team defense to prevent Jake from continuing making 3-point plays."

"In defense, Jake was the best player also making 11 steals and 3 blocks, in that game Jake made the fifth triple-double in a row in these playoffs showing how important he was to this victory for the Los Angeles Lakers team playing as a visitor."

"The next game will be in 2 days in Los Angeles and the Los Angeles Lakers team will be playing at home and needs just 1 more win to get the 4 wins and advance to the next phase of the playoffs."

The Los Angeles Lakers team managed to win this difficult game against the Portland Trail Blazers team and so they could advance to the next stage if they won the next game in Los Angeles, the players and coach Rambis were very happy with this victory.

Even more, because they managed to find a way to win even with the opponent trying to use the strategy of making faults against them, so they would have more chances of winning even if the opponent tried to use a strategy of making faults in the next stages of the playoff.

The players acknowledged that Jake was currently the best player on the team this season, it was very difficult to find a player who managed to make 5 triple-double in playoff games, even more so as Jake who always scored more than 30 points.

If it weren't for Jake the Los Angeles Lakers team knew they would lose that game and maybe even other games, Jake didn't know what his teammates were thinking, he was just happy that the Lakers team got the win and that his effort was rewarded.

Jake looked at the stands again at the end of the game and saw that his mother was looking proud of him after that victory, Eva was happy that the Los Angeles Lakers team had won and was even happier that she heard the Portland Trail crowd. Blazers praised Jake a lot in that game.

Eva was also happy that she could finally return to Los Angeles, even if Jake chose a 5-star hotel Eva did not like having to stay in hotels for many days, she was much more comfortable at Jake's home in Los Angeles.

Jake returned to Los Angeles shortly after the game with the other players and Jake knew that Eva would also use the helicopter to go to Los Angeles because he had warned her that they could come home after that game.

Jake worked hard in the first quarter for the Los Angeles Lakers team to get a good point advantage, because of that he got very tired at the end of the game, luckily he can rest a little in the other quarters because the Portland Trail Blazers team did double-team defense on it.

Jake could still score a lot even though he had a double-team defense against him, but Jake came to the Los Angeles Lakers team this season because he wanted good teammates who could help the team win even if he couldn't attack much.

Jake didn't want to be known as a player who didn't know how to play as a team even though he could score more than 50 points in all games, that's why he decided to be a PG and with his assists, Jake helped the Lakers team a lot more than doing 50 points alone and giving no assistance.

Jake went to his house after arriving in Los Angeles and his mother had already arrived, Jake was happy with that and gave his mother a hug that he didn't see personally in a few days, Jake also thanked Eva for her support in these games important.

"You don't have to thank me, Jake, I know that many moms of gamers watch most of their children's games in the NBA season, I can't do that because I have to take care of the restaurant, so the least I can do is keep up with all their playoff games."

"I am very happy to see your games and even happier to see you and your team winning, I am also happy to see you being so praised, I know how you tried as a child to become such a good player, that makes me very proud."

"Even so, I appreciate it, Mom, I know you're worried about the restaurant while you're here to watch the Los Angeles Lakers team games, you don't know how seeing you in the stands gives me more confidence in the games."

Jake was being sincere saying this to Eva, since he had his second chance in this life Jake's priority was always that Eva lived a happy life and lived for many years, after all, Jake knew how his mother suffered in his past life before that she would end up dying.

Now Jake could work happily, play basketball and think about Kate because he knew that Eva was living happily and that his mom had made her dream come true, so nothing made Jake as happy as seeing his mom watching his games and cheering for him.

Eva was happy to hear Jake say that, she knew that Jake was being sincere saying that, Eva felt a little sad sometimes after Jake went to university and then with Jake going to Los Angeles to play basketball.

Eva knew that normally after the children grew up they would move away from their parents, she was always close to Jake in his childhood and even after Jake turned 10 they became even closer and Jake was not ashamed to say that he loved her like the others young people normally did.

So Eva was sad after Jake left their home in Miami because she thought they would never be that close again, but in those days she realized that Jake would never change and they would always be that close.

Of course, Eva had no way of knowing that Jake already had the mentality of a 40-year-old person since he was 10 years old and therefore he had not changed and his mentality would not change in the next few years.

Jake can sleep relaxed after such an important victory, the other day Jake woke up happily and knew that Coach Rambis had given that day of rest to him and the other players on the Los Angeles Lakers team.

Coach Rambis knew how tired the players were after the last few games, especially since he can't replace the important players for a long time in the last few games, so Coach Rambis thought that the players needed a day of rest more than one training.

Even Jake had to say that this day of rest would be good for him, who got tired a lot in the last two games that were in two days in a row, the other players should then be much more tired, in the last game Jake was tired in the last minutes of the last quarter, but he did not worry because the opponents were much more tired than him.

After a few hours Jake called Kate to talk to her about the Los Angeles Lakers team win, Kate was waiting for Jake to call and they talked for a long time before Kate had to hang up because she had more work to do.

Jake was very busy with basketball after the playoffs started, but he knew that sometimes he had more free time than Kate who had to work on her new songs, had to go to several meetings, and sometimes even had to do interviews for radio and television stations.

Of course, Jake would be very busy after the playoffs were over, he would have to start looking more closely at the market to make sure he could sell Cisco's stock only in 2000.

After all the future had changed with the change that Jake had in his life, this was even more true for the business world where he invested in 2 large companies and had shares in the companies of Matthew and Clara.

Jake also took care of an investment company that had billions of dollars invested in shares of the company Cisco, so Jake thought it was possible that the future would change and the bubble would burst sooner, and thus he would lose the chance to make more money.
