The game continued with the two teams attacking, and the Tar Heels team managed to maintain the advantage and won the game in the final of the NCAA tournament and thus became the champion team again for the second year in a row.

Team Tar Heels won the game with 105 points against Team Kentucky Wildcats' 81 points, all players on Team Tar Heels and even Coach Guthridge started to celebrate their victory and the NCAA title.

In this 2nd half of the game, Jake played for 20 minutes and had 22 points, 6 assists, 7 rebounds, 6 steals, and 4 blocks, with another triple-double he helped the Tar Heels team to win another NCAA tournament and thus could leave of the Tar Heels team happy with what he did.

"End of the game, the Tar Heels team again wins the Kentucky Wildcats team and wins the NCAA tournament for the second year in a row, now the Tar Heels team has 5 NCAA titles and comes close to the Kentucky Wildcats team that has 6."

"It was a good match between the teams with the Tar Heels team being ahead on the scoreboard the whole game until the end, the players of both teams had good performances and the attack of the two teams was very strong, but the Tar Heels team defended better and got more rebounds in that game and got the win."

"Okay, the Kentucky Wildcats team played very well in that game and it proves that they have a strong team is that this is the third year in a row that they reach the final of the NCAA tournament, they won and 1996, but they lost the last two finals to the Tar Heels team."

"But the Kentucky Wildcats team was really bad at rebounds against the Tar Heels team that has players who got a lot of rebounds all this season, Jamison made history in College basketball making 389 rebounds and joining the list of players who got the most rebounds in just one season."

"Jamison averaged more than 10 rebounds per game and Jake was also not far behind making 323 rebounds this season and achieving an average of 8.5 rebounds per game."

"In this game of the final Jake managed to catch 13 rebounds, make 9 steals and also managed to make 6 blocks, Jake Smith was instrumental in defending the Tar Heels team and was primarily responsible for the victories as in almost all games this season."

"That's why the Tar Heels team managed to win the NCAA tournament again and Jake Smith will again win all of the individual awards for that season including the MVP of the season, the NCAA Basketball Tournament Most Outstanding Player award and the Naismith College Player of the Year."

"We also have to remember the coach Guthridge who won the ACC tournament and the NCAA tournament in his first year as coach of the Tar Heels team and along with coach Dean Smith the Tar Heels team managed to win 2 NCAA tournaments in a row and still maintain a record of 64 straight victories that will continue for the next season."

Jake looked into the stands to see the people he knew who had come to watch the game celebrating as well as the Tar Heels fans, he looked at Eva who was very happy and looked at Kate who was happy too.

As the Tar Heels team had won, he couldn't talk to all his friends, only Eva who was his mother Jake can talk a little and celebrate before going back to the university with the Tar Heels team.

The Tar Heels team celebrated a lot while the players received the prizes and the trophy, then on the way back to university the team celebrated again, somehow the players felt more emotional than last season when they won the NCAA tournament for the first time.

Jake was highly praised by his teammates and Jamison was also, the two were certainly the most important for the Tar Heels team to win the NCAA tournament this season and last season as well.

The players were not called again to do an interview because they had already done it when they broke the record and the reporters could not be angry about it, of course, if the players wanted to do an interview they could since the season was over.

But the players didn't want to do that for the time being, some players had already said they would go to the NBA draft this season, Jake also said that, but David managed to keep it a secret until after the NCAA tournament final game.

So it would soon be announced that Jake would be leaving college and going to the NBA draft that year, many said that Jake would break all individual records in the coming seasons and would soon know that it would not happen.

So Jake decided to do an interview only after it was announced, so he could speak openly to the media and do another full interview, other players were not like Jake and would do the interviews in the next few days.

The media also wanted to talk to Vince Carter, Antawn Jamison and Shammond Williams, the three were also stars of the Tar Heels team and the fans wanted to know about them, Jake would relax in the next few days before returning to training.

Jake still had to think about the university because his classes were not yet over, his classes ended in May and after that, he would have finished the most important classes at the university, Jake would still return to finish university in the next semesters, but it would be just a few weeks of classes.

Jake always thought about leaving the university before 4 years and so he chose a course that he always wanted to study and that he could finish sooner if he wanted, especially because Jake always got high marks in tests and was certainly the best student at university may be tied only with someone who also got top marks.

If in the future other players wanted to use Jake as an example to get sponsorship they would have to be professionals in other sports like Jake was and still have the best grades from the university.

One thing Jake had to do right after winning the NCAA tournament at the end of the season was to let his friends at the university know that they would no longer be roommates at the university because he would be leaving.

This was something surprising for his roommates, they couldn't imagine that Jake was thinking about joining the NBA this season as he had such a great team and was in the middle of a historic winning streak and had won 2 NCAA tournaments and could break all individual records.

They knew that Jake was different from other players and had sponsorship and still had his business while he was at university, so Jake had no problem with money even though he was 4 years at university.

They also knew that Jake liked to study and was one of the best students at the university, so they could not understand why Jake wanted to leave the university, Zack and Aaron were shocked, but they could accept that it was more difficult for William who went to class with Jake and spent more time with Jake at the university.

Jake wanted to talk to his friends, but Brett told him it was best that he waited a few weeks before talking to his friends, after all, it was normal for students to leave the university in the middle of the course, especially for basketball players.

Jake agreed with Brett that his friends were just surprised and would talk to them later, but one thing Jake couldn't leave until later was to talk to the sponsors that their contract would end in a few months.

They would have no problem with the contract because there was a clause that the contract could be canceled because of the university and the NBA, after all, if anything happened everything would have to be renegotiated.

First of all, he called Tiffany and Clara who were friends with him and also with whom he had more time on contract, surely with both of them it would be easier to talk because Jake received only 600 thousand dollars from the two companies a year.

The companies that John and Alan represented paid $ 1.5 million a year to Jake each, the two companies paid $ 3 million, so Jake knew that Tiffany and Clara would accept the end of the contract between them.

If Jake could he would continue with those contracts in his time in the NBA, but David would never agree with that because Jake's image would be related to the companies he endorsed, so it was better for great athletes to only have contracts with big companies with a good reputation.

To prevent Jake from changing his mind, David even made a verbal deal with two beverage companies and one of the razors to make sure Jake didn't ask to renew his contract with the smaller companies.

Naturally, John, Alan, Clara, and Tiffany knew this well and understood that the contract with Jake was temporary, moreover, for those who had smaller companies having Jake was a great help for them also in those years, especially for the companies of Tiffany and Clara that grew the profit in several times what it was before.

Luckily for Jake, they still hadn't returned to Miami and the city where their company was, so they could fly to where Jake was and talk to him before returning to where they lived.

Jake thought it was better that way because he could speak to them in person, especially to John and Alan who had to tell their company about the end of the contract after that meeting.

As it was an important subject Jake decided to speak to each one in private, first he called Clara to talk because she was the first to meet him and sponsor him with her company, and also because Jake had shares in her company.

Jake arrived first at the restaurant he had booked and Clara arrived later in a beautiful blue dress, Jake felt that Clara was almost the same when he met her many years ago.
