《Be happy with sports 》Chapter 434: End of Time at the University 6
Advertisement
In the next few days, Jake created another routine for him, did the running training in the morning, went to classes, did training with Yuen Woo-ping and also did three-point training sessions every day as usual.
Also, as Jake always did his imagination training every day and so he didn't need to train with the basketball team every day to keep improving, Jake was just irritated because he had reached the maximum in all of his skills at basketball and had not yet reached NBA level.
If Jake could advance to the NBA level he could know exactly what his skills would be like in the NBA and he could still train with more difficulty in training his imagination because his opponents could have the maximum NBA skill level.
When that happened, Jake knew he could get better at basketball as he felt he hadn't improved much this season, Jake was close to achieving all his dreams in the past before going back in time.
In basketball Jake wanted to win an NBA title and also become an NBA season MVP, but now that he was close to achieving it Jake decided to have new dreams for the future, those dreams would be more difficult to achieve and Jake would not be disappointed even if I couldn't.
But these new dreams would allow him to continue striving in his training and career in basketball even after achieving what he wanted in the past because as Jake no longer needed to play basketball to earn money he had to look for another motivation to continue playing beside his love for basketball.
Jake wanted to ask Coach Davis to change his training for the races, but soon he would have to go to Australia and Coach Davis could not go with him, even so, Jake intended to train his races in Australia when he had time.
When Jake returned from Australia he would have to go to the city where the team that chose him in the NBA draft was, Jake was almost certain that he would go to the Lakers, but he was prepared for it to go wrong and he had to be in another team.
After that, Jake was going to participate in the marathon in Chicago with Zack and after that, he had to concentrate fully on training him with the basketball team, with NBA games Jake wasn't sure if he could do his training for the races.
So Jake was wondering if he could use the stamina bars that he was keeping, Jake had thousands of stamina bars in store for a few years and he could use that to train more.

What worried Jake was how the games would be in the NBA season, he knew that sometimes he would have 3 games a week and if he wanted to play every 48 minutes he would have to use all his resistance in basketball and not get tired doing the training his racing.
Even more because Jake didn't need to train to maintain his physical condition to get the best records, Jake's goal was to win a marathon a year and participate in the Olympics whenever he could as an athlete in the United States.
If possible he wanted to try to run in a variety of disciplines at an Olympics, but all of that would depend on the NBA's game schedule, Jake would lose a few games to qualify for the Olympics if that was necessary.
The Lakers' team knew this and knew about the possibility of Jake losing a few games because of the marathons and had accepted that it was rare for a player to play every game of the NBA season, and if with the resistance they knew Jake had it was possible to let him play most games.
In the next few days Jake continued with his racing training and with Yuen Woo-ping, Jake felt it was more rewarding to train with Yuen Woo-ping because he felt that he learned and improved more each day.
Yuen Woo-ping was more impressed because he was already teaching Jake more advanced techniques that he would not need to use for this film after Jake learned everything he would use for the film.
Fortunately the friends he called arrived and so Jake would have more to learn even before they went to Australia, in fact, the training that Yuen Woo-ping was giving Jake was more to be a great dub than to be an actor.
But the principle was the same and so Jake could do his own scenes more safely because since Jake was 2.01 m, it would be more difficult to find someone with the same height as him to become the double for him.
So Yuen Woo-ping's friends were teaching Jake to fight Taekwondo, Aikido, and Brazilian jiu-jitsu, in addition, Jake was learning fights with Sword, dagger, rapier, quarterstaff and knives and even Firearms.
Jake was also learning gymnastics and acrobatics, and learning skills to safely fall from heights, Jake at some point thought he was learning to become a secret agent.
And just as Yuen Woo-ping the others thought Jake would be great to be double and be in an action and fight movie, Jake learned fast and also had a lot of agility and good reaction and thought fast and so he could guarantee better safety him and not hurt the other actors.

Yuen Woo-ping felt it was a pity that he didn't have the equipment to do the cable training for Jake if he did that Jake would be ready for the film even before he went to Australia.
The truth was that even though Yuen Woo-ping knew that Jake was a talented athlete and was very good at learning everything they were teaching, he didn't think Jake really was a good actor.
Because of this, as Yuen Woo-ping knew that Jake would have little time in Australia to learn about the script that hadn't been delivered to him yet, he thought it was better for Jake to learn just how to fight suspended on the cables and be able to concentrate on the texts that he had to decorate to act.
What Yuen Woo-ping didn't know was that Jake had a photographic memory and also knew how to act well, that meant that Jake would be ready after studying the script for a few days, especially since he had seen the movie The Matrix before and did not thought that his character would change the story of the film.
So Jake's biggest concern was actually learning the fighting moves in the movie because he had never learned martial arts before and knew how hard it would be to learn to fight suspended on cables, and Yuen Woo-ping never praised Jake directly for being good at learn and Jake was still tense about it.
In these training Jake was really lucky to have greatly increased his reaction speed because in this way he avoided being attacked by the instructors and thus had no injuries, Jake also knew the right time to stop the attacks before hurting the other stuntmen.
Jake really learned to pretend he was run over and the right technique to not get hurt in this situation and in falls too, Jake just didn't want to try to get burned, even with all the protective devices Jake didn't want to risk that much and didn't even think about doing it something like that in a movie.
A few weeks went by with Jake doing his intense training, with that time and the end of classes coming up Jake's roommates finally decided to stop getting into a fight with him.
After so long they were no longer angry with him, they were angry with Jake because they expected to spend another 2 years at the university with him and also because they were fans of the Tar Heels team and knew that with Jake's departure it would be very difficult for the team will continue to win the NCAA tournament for years to come.
But now it was only a few weeks before the end of classes and after that, they knew that Jake would go to Australia, so Jake had lunch with all his friends at the university, even Brett and Haruto were invited.
Jake wanted to talk because he decided to leave the university and also that they would continue to be friends even after he left the university, Jake knew that this was possible because with the internet talking to people at a distance would be much easier.
"I still can't understand why you would want to leave university after winning the NCAA tournament a second time, Jake, you are so close to breaking your records and putting your name in university history."
"It's true, many players who are NBA stars stayed 4 years or at least 3 years at the university, you could stay at least one more season at the university and break your records and then leave the university."
"I understand that you can't understand what I'm thinking, I really enjoyed spending my 2 years at university and I was lucky to win 2 NCAA tournament and break some individual records too."
"But I think there is no reason for me to stay another season or two at the university, I have no ambitions to break all individual records as a player at the university, what was more important I managed to win the NCAA tournament 2 times and win the Naismith College Player of the Year award twice."
"Also, as you know almost all of the players on the Tar Heels team this season will be leaving, including my friends Vince and Antawn, so next season it will be difficult to win the NCAA tournament again."
"My dream is to play in the NBA and win the NBA title several times and become the MVP of a season in the NBA at least once, if possible I wanted to break some individual records in the NBA too because winning achievements as a professional for me it will be much more important than winning at college basketball."
