Chapter 56 The State Championship 4 (1/2)

”Okay, I'll admit that I was wrong and that your decision was right, but you're really lucky, a friend makes a recommendation and turns out to be a genius.”

”He really is very good, but the reason I chose him apart from his ability is his personality, he is quite mature and honest for his age, so he is someone who can be trusted, besides, as I said we did not invest much in it, if it did not work, we would not lose much.”

”You're right, we have to risk it sometimes, if his team wins the state championship and he's the MVP we're going to increase his sponsorship to $ 10,000 a month and start recording the advertisements, I'm going to make him the advertising boy for my company for $ 10,000 as well.”

”You too? Your business is not geared towards young people with mine, a professional player would make more success would not it?”

”We are going to look for a professional athlete too, more basketball players and American football are more successful more are also very expensive, so I can choose a professional athlete in another sport and Jake for basketball, as you said is a good story to sponsor a young man who can go to the NBA, does more advertising in the long run.”

”You are right, we have a market with many strong companies, we have to stand out in a different thing if we manage to win the young public could be an advantage for us, everyone wants the same as the champions.”

”We're going to have to see a new school for him come in next year too, this team is very weak, and as you said he accepted we can choose now, a private school is a good idea because he can stay there until he graduates.”

”Let's see this with Matthew too, it seems that Jake and his grandson are close friends, so he can get a good idea and change Jake along with his grandson to a new school, Jake also mentioned when I told him that he would depend on seeing with Joseph if he would change schools.”

So as they got up to leave after watching the game the two friends decided important things about Jake's life, the more important he was to play basketball, to help his mother with the money earned and to maintain his friendship with Joseph.

So Jake went home and told his mother that he won the game, she was very happy, with the passing of the games she was not so anxious more before Jake's games, her son was more mature and Eva did not think Jake would to despair if he lost a game after winning so much.

”Mom, now we have two more games and in the end I want to see you there, it seems the opponents are really strong, we're going to have to do our best if we want to win, the good thing is that after that we'll have the holidays, so it would give the team more time to train for nationals.”

”Son, it's good to be confident, but you should not talk like that to anyone else, because even if you really can win you will be an arrogant person, and no one likes arrogant people.”

”I know mom, I just say if you need it and for you, otherwise you'll be anxious the same in the first games.”

”I'm not going to stay that way anymore, I believe you and even if you can not win I know you'll handle it well.”

”You could have stopped at the 'I believe in you' part more thank you.”

It was good to know that his mother trusted him, Jake did not like being treated with a child, because although his body being his mind was not, it is difficult to be treated with someone who can not do anything, plus he even liked it when his mother worried about him.

So he had a week to prepare before the game, the bad thing is that this week Eric had not mentioned anything about his next opponent, it really sucks to stay in the dark, but before the game they would get a report, but also even if they knew in advance they would have nothing to do.

In the months that the championships were going on while Jake was just doing his imagination training, his teammates were working with coach Roy every day to be able to improve even a little, but the time is not enough.

If Jake did not have the system either, he probably was training like that too, of course, it was only with bodybuilding and his imaginative training that Jake's training was much more effective than his opponents.
