Chapter 408 Training for the Movie 2
Jake advanced with the ball and passed to Vince Carter on the left before passing through the middle of the court, Carter did not play well in the last game and was not satisfied with his performance this season.
He didn't have any games this season when he had a great highlight making many points just like Antawn Jamison and Williams had, with Jake so he couldn't even compare himself.
Carter praised her for his performance in several games that helped the team win and in defense too, but he still wanted to have a game scoring more than 35 points as his teammates.
Even if he didn't succeed, he at least wanted to play well for the next games until the end of this season, after all, he was thinking about joining the NBA draft this year and this would be his last season for the Tar Heels team.
Carter came forward and passed the ball to Jamison later on the left, Jamison tried to get rid of the opposing defense, but had to stop and pass the ball to Okulaja on the left, Okulaja received the ball and passed it to Jake further back.
Jake received the ball and pretended he would try a shot from the outside and advanced with the ball, Jake used his agility and drive to the basket by doing a dunk after passing through all the opposing players on the way and making the first 2 points for the team Tar Heels.
Jake was considered a complete player because he could score points on three-point shots and he could also make dunk and layup move with ease, Wake Forest team players were not intimidated and tried to attack.
Jake and Williams were defending against the best players on the Wake Forest team outside the three-point line, and Jake was still on the lookout for players who were inside the three-point line if he had the chance Jake would try a steal.
After a good move, the ball went to Rutland who was being defended by Williams, Rutland made a feint and managed to take a step back and was free to make the shot from outside to make three more points for the Wake Forest team.
After 10 minutes of the 1st half everyone had already realized what was going on in the game, the Tar Heels team players again were not performing well and only Williams was playing better.
But the players of the Wake Forest team were also not playing well and the defense of the Tar Heels team was putting pressure, so the players of the Wake Forest team were having trouble getting the points.
Jake was playing as well as ever and had already scored 11 points and was helping the Tar Heels team to be winning with a good advantage on the scoreboard, in another play Jake managed to make a steal intercepting a pass from the Wake Forest team.
Jake did not use speed and advanced slowly so that his teammates could move forward, after passing through the middle of the court Jake passed the ball to Williams on the right.
Williams advanced the ball to the three-point line and passed to Okulaja further on, Okulaja passed to Jamison on the left and Jamison tried to advance to make a layup, but the Wake Forest defense pressed against him and Jamison had to pass the ball to Jake further back.
Jake held the ball and made a high pass to Carter who took the ball high and made a dunk to complete the alley-oop and make 2 more points for the Tar Heels team, no one saw Carter coming behind the defense of the Wake team Forest and he managed to dunk easily.
Jake trained a lot with Jamison and Carter in the basketball team's training because the two were his best friends on the team, but in the game, he did most of the assists for Jamison who was playing better.
Carter was not upset because he knew Jamison was playing better than he was, but to make up for Jake he just made plays like this with Carter who was better at dunking, so the most beautiful moves Jake made with Carter.
With the Tar Heels team pressing in attack and defense, the 1st half ended with the Tar Heels team winning with a good advantage against the Wake Forest team, the best players of the Wake Forest team failed to score much with Jake and Williams defending against them and Jake still got a lot of steals.
In this 1st half of the game Jake played for 20 minutes and made 17 points, 4 assists, 4 rebounds, 6 steals, and 2 blocks, Jake got 2 more blocks in that game defending against O'Kelley, in his last 5 games Jake got blocks in all games playing against good opponents.
"And so the 1st half of the game ends, the Tar Heels team is winning the game with a good advantage as expected, Jake is playing well in attack and also in defense, but not as well as in the last game."
"The players of the Tar Heels team are not performing as well as in the last game and that worries the fans and coach Guthridge, soon the ACC tournament will start and the Tar Heels team will not be able to lose any more if they want to become the champion."
"Fortunately in this game, the players of the Wake Forest team are not playing as well as the last opposing team of the Tar Heels team, so I find it difficult for the Tar Heels team to lose that game with an advantage like that in the 1st half."
Just as commentators said, fans were not too concerned after seeing the 1st half because the Wake Forest team players were not playing very well and Jake was doing well as always.
Coach Guthridge was concerned about the upcoming games as well as commentators and sports media, but he saw how the players trained hard in the past few days and were not relaxing at the games.
It looked like it was just bad luck that the Tar Heels team players were going through, Coach Guthridge just hoped that this bad luck would end before the ACC tournament started.
The Wake Forest team that was losing the game started pressing in the attack against the Tar Heels team, the players of the Tar Heels team were focused on the defense and Williams was defending against Rutland.
Jake was defending well against O'Kelley who managed to make only 6 points in the 1st half, but Williams was not so well and the Wake Forest team started trying to attack more with Rutland because of that.
In another play, the Wake Forest team made a good play and Rutland received the ball, he made a feint and Williams was deceived, but Rutland did not attempt the shot and passed it to O'Kelley who was far from where Jake was.
O'Kelley attempted the three-point shot and Jake arrived quickly and hindered O'Kelley's attempt, so he missed and Jamison caught the rebound for the Tar Heels team, Jake was always aware and was at a distance that he could try the steal and also hinder O'Kelley.
Jamison passed the ball to Jake who advanced for the attack, after passing through the middle of the court Jake passed the ball to Williams on the right, Williams was playing well in the game and had already scored 9 points in the 1st half and hoped to help the team more in attack as he was having difficulty defending.
Williams passed the ball to Carter from the left before crossing the three-point line, Carter advanced and tried to get rid of the defense and managed to get past one until another opposing player appeared to defend.
Carter stopped and passed the ball to Jamison who was on the left, Jamison passed the ball to Jake further back, the Wake Forest defense came to defend against Jake who was free.
Jake passed the ball to Williams, who was more open on the right, there was no one defending against Williams who had time to make the shot with ease and make 3 more points for the Tar Heels team.
With Jake organizing the attacks of the Tar Heels team they managed to increase the advantage on the scoreboard even though the players of the Tar Heels team did not perform well, in defense they had to try harder to guarantee the victory.
Jake continued to play well in the 2nd half and defended well against O'Kelley and so the Tar Heels team got the win by making 84 points against 48 points of the Wake Forest team, it was an easy victory in which the two teams don't play very well and Jake highlighted as always.
In this 2nd half of the game, Jake played for 20 minutes and had 17 points, 4 assists, 4 rebounds, 5 steals, and 2 blocks, with another double-double Jake can help the Tar Heels team to win and increase the sequence of games without lose.
"The game is over and the Tar Heels team easily wins again, 84 points against Wake Forest team's 48 points, so the Tar Heels team's winning streak increases again."
"That's right, in this game the players of the Tar Heels team were not very well and only Jake and Williams performed well, but unlike the last game the players of the Wake Forest team did not perform well either."
"So with Jake playing well in attack and defense, the Tar Heels team achieved an excellent victory like this, this is good to give more confidence to the Tar Heels team before the next difficult game that will be the last game before the start of the ACC tournament."
"The next opponent is the Duke Blue Devils team, which is the biggest rival of the Tar Heels team, it will be a game as a visitor without the support of the fans and the players of the Tar Heels team will have to have an excellent performance if they want to win."
"It is true, even if Jake has another excellent performance it will be difficult to achieve victory if the players of the Tar Heels team do not perform very well, perhaps in the next game we will see the end of the winning streak for the Tar Heels team."
