Chapter 567 West Conference Semifinals 7

Of course, if Jake sold the billions of dollars his investment firm had in shares of the Cisco company he could be the cause of the bubble burst in this life, so Jake had to start analyzing the stock market better and see the reports that Emily always delivered to him.

In addition, Jake had to continue to monitor whether the lawyers he hired would get all the patents he wanted for the smartphone, and for touchscreen and multi-touch technologies, Jake wanted all patents to be approved by the end of 1999.

That was because Jake knew that next year he would no longer be able to hide the wealth he had, so big tech companies like Apple and Microsoft would definitely investigate the patents Jake wanted to approve at a technology company he had.

After all, everyone would know that Jake was one of the biggest partners of the company Amazon, which was one of the companies that had the most expectations of growth in the market in the coming years, besides, everyone would know that Jake had invested billions of dollars in the company Cisco.

Jake also hoped that by the end of next year Charlie's team, which was now bigger, could finish developing the Android operating system, Jake would ask for many patents for that operating system as well, but it was impossible for Apple and Microsoft to know the importance of this technology and the internet was still starting to become popular and even desktops still had to evolve a lot.

Jake was not concerned with the Android operating system because he intended to share that technology with the Google company that Jake was a partner of and who in his past life created the Android operating system.

In addition, Jake still had the track and field and after the holidays he would return to play basketball next NBA season, so Jake would remain busy for the rest of the year, so Jake knew he had to take advantage of all the rest days he had.

After a few hours Jake drove his car to drive around Los Angeles for a while driving his car, Jake left alone this time because he wanted to enjoy the day driving the McLaren F1 he had.

Whenever Jake left the house to walk with his mother, he had to use his other car because only the McLaren F1 was a car that had passenger seats, it was a sports car that was comfortable only for the driver.

That was why Jake never took his mother and Kate for a ride with him in that car, so Jake wanted to enjoy that he had a day to relax and went to drive this car that was very fast and that's why Jake liked it so much.

The truth was that after being hit twice in his past life, Jake never thought he could continue liking cars, fortunately having the system in Jake's mind was much stronger and those past traumas no longer affected him, unfortunately in this life, he could still have other traumas if he were careless.

After walking his car for a few hours Jake went back to his house and called Eva to watch some movies, so Jake really enjoyed his rest day and went to sleep early to be prepared for the important game he would have the next day.

The other day after a few hours Jake went to the Great Western Forum where the next game would be, Jake remembered that in his past life the Los Angeles Lakers team had played their last game at the Great Western Forum after all the Lakers team was eliminated after 4 games for the San Antonio Spurs team at that stage.

Fortunately in this life the Los Angeles Lakers team was close to qualifying for the next phase playing at home and would still have a few more games at the Great Western Forum, Jake thought this was important since next season the Los Angeles Lakers team would start playing at the Staples Center.

Jake was happy to have the opportunity to play at the Great Western Forum last season that the Los Angeles Lakers team would play, just as Jake was also happy to play a season with coach Dean Smith while playing on the Tar Heels team.

Jake can see that the fans of the Los Angeles Lakers team would fill the Great Western Forum to follow that game in which the Los Angeles Lakers team could advance to the next stage in the playoffs.

The crowd counted on Jake and the players of the Los Angeles Lakers team to win this game and advance to the next stage, of course, what the fans wanted most was for the Lakers team to advance to the NBA Finals this season and win the NBA title.

Jake entered the locker room and after a while, he went out onto the court with the other players on the Los Angeles Lakers team, before that game Coach Rambis did not make a speech again and just told the players to use the same strategy as the last game and win that game.

"Welcome to everyone who came to watch another game this NBA season, this is the fifth game between the Los Angeles Lakers team facing the Portland Trail Blazers and this could be the last game of that phase."

"The Los Angeles Lakers team has 3 wins after winning an important game playing as a visitor, the Portland Trail Blazers team has only 1 victory and has to win that game if they want to have a chance to advance to the next phase of the playoffs."

"That's why the Los Angeles Lakers team is a favorite to win that game at home and advanced to the next phase of the playoffs, in the last game the Lakers team changed their strategy, and Shaquille O'Neal, Rick Fox, and Dennis Rodman had a great performance."

"In addition, Jake Smith has been having an excellent performance in these playoffs and made 5 triple-double in a row and was the best player of the Los Angeles Lakers team in all the games of these playoffs, Jake has been showing that he does not shirk responsibility and continues to lead the team Los Angeles Lakers to achieve more victories."

"We will follow in this game if the Los Angeles Lakers team can win the fourth game and advance to the next stage, or if the Portland Trail Blazers team can win that game to try a historic turnaround."

Just as commentators said the Los Angeles Lakers team was the favorite to win this game, Jake was performing well in all games, and in this game, he wanted to stand out again in the attack to help the Lakers team win.

Jake thought about doing this and the other players also knew that this could be the best for the Los Angeles Lakers team, but it seems that the Portland Trail Blazers players also hoped that Jake would try to do this.

In that game the Los Angeles Lakers team would start the game with Jake Smith playing as PG, Kobe Bryant playing as SG, Rick Fox playing as SF, Dennis Rodman playing as PF, and Shaquille O'Neal playing as Center.

The Portland Trail Blazers team would start the game with Damon Stoudamire playing as PG, Isaiah Rider playing as SG, Brian Grant playing as SF, Rasheed Wallace playing as PF, and Arvydas Sabonis playing as Center.

Portland Trail Blazers coach Mike Dunleavy analyzed the last game well and realized that the main part of the Los Angeles Lakers team's strategy for them to win was Jake's 20 points in the first quarter.

As soon as from the beginning of the game he decided to do a double-team defense strategy against Jake again, but different from what happened in the last game, who would be without defense would be Dennis Rodman, who was the player in the Los Angeles Lakers team that scored fewer points. in games.

So Damon Stoudamire and Brian Grant would defend against Jake and Rasheed Wallace would defend against Rick Fox and thus Dennis would normally be free in the attacking plays of the Los Angeles Lakers team, of course, Coach Dunleavy knew that Dennis would also make some points by playing free, but even so, he thought it was better than letting Jake attack.

So Jake cannot do as in the last game and start pressing on the attack and making several three-point shots, moreover, in this game of just having 2 players defending against him, Rick and Kobe were not free to attack and it would be more difficult for the Los Angeles Lakers team attack.

So in this game, Jake could only attack normally and had to find some chances to try to shoot three points, for the Los Angeles Lakers team to win Jake had to count on his teammates.

Jake advanced with the ball and when he got close to the three-point line Stoudamire and Grant came to defend against him, so Jake decided to pass the ball to Rick from the left, Rick received the ball and Wallace came pressing on the defense.

Rick performed well in the last game and helped the Los Angeles Lakers team win that important game, but he knew that if he had someone defending against him it wouldn't be so easy for him to score so many points.

So Rick wanted to wait to see in the plays if he could get better opportunities to score, Rick passed the ball to Kobe Bryant on the right, Kobe received the ball and Isaiah Rider came in to press the defense.

Kobe made the low dribble and protected the ball for Rider not to try the steal, Kobe waited a bit and tried to jab step and Rider didn't react, so he took advantage of that Rider didn't react to advance to the inside area using his speed.

Rider realized he was tricked and tried to keep defending, Kobe used his speed and drive to the basket to try a layup and make 2 points for the Los Angeles Lakers, Kobe managed to make a few more points in another individual play.

Kobe had not performed very well in the last game even though he had still helped the Los Angeles Lakers team by making several points, in that game Kobe wanted to be one of the highlights of the Lakers team as Jake was being heavily scored.
