Chapter 549 The New NBA Star 9

"I know that if I don’t do this you will want to go back to Miami between the days of the games to open the restaurant, but if you travel every day you will not be able to stand it and your health will get much worse, so you have to leave the restaurant in these next 2 months with Anna."

"When there is a gap of more than 3 days between games I will let you go back to Miami until the next game happens, so at most you will be 2 weeks without going back to Miami."

Eva didn’t expect Jake to say that to her, she really thought about traveling to Miami every day to help Anna with the restaurant on days when Jake didn’t have games, she knew she would tire more, but it was something she thought she could take.

Jake knew his mother well and knew that Eva would try to do this and so he said this to Eva, after all, he knew that this was the best for her health, that was the only restriction he had for his mother to watch the games his.

"Okay, I accept that, after all, it’s only 2 months and I know that Anna will understand if I have to stay away from the restaurant to watch her decisive games."

"Very well, in the games where the Los Angeles Lakers team plays here in Los Angeles, you will stay at my house, in the games that will be in other cities I have already booked a hotel in all cities for you."

"The hotel managers were really nice to me and so if the Los Angeles Lakers team is eliminated or plays with another team the reservation will be canceled automatically and I won’t have to pay anything, so the hotels are already reserved for you, mom."

This was something that Eva was very happy that Jake did, she would try to book the hotels after going to the cities where the games would take place, but what Eva didn’t know was that the best hotels would be crowded on the days of the playoff games of NBA.

That way she would be lucky if she found a 3-star hotel to rest on game days, even if Eva wasn’t too picky Jake didn’t want his mother to be uncomfortable because of him.

Jake said the simplest things first and Eva accepted everything calmly because the biggest extravagance Jake left to speak last so that Eva could not refuse, of course, that extravagance would not even cost Jake much.

"The third thing I prepared for you, mom, is a little different, but everything is already prepared."

"What is?"

"I rented a helicopter to take you to the cities where my team will play, that helicopter is rented to go in any state and in any city, in addition, there will be a rental car waiting for you in all the cities that will take you to the hotel."

Eva didn’t know what to say when Jake said he rented a helicopter and a private car for her for 2 months, the rental car for two months was expensive and she could understand roughly how much it cost Jake.

But renting a helicopter was something Eva couldn’t even imagine and she had no idea how much it cost Jake, Eva knew that Jake had won a few million dollars from basketball and his investments, but she didn’t even know how close Jake had really won.

What Eva knew was that Jake was someone very responsible and she never heard Matthew or Emily criticizing Jake for spending too much money irresponsibly, so Eva didn’t know what to say and had to accept it because Jake had said he had already rented the helicopter and not that would rent in the future.

"Don’t worry, mom, it’s not as expensive as it looks and you would spend a lot more time and tire a lot more if you had to use a plane every week to go to my team’s games."

Jake thought about buying a helicopter for him to use in the future, but he didn’t have time to do that, Jake didn’t just have to buy the helicopter, he had to find a place to keep the helicopter safe and well looked after, hire a pilot and take care of the fuel.

Jake had to take care of the helicopter maintenance which was essential because he could risk his life on each flight, so if he had to buy a helicopter he would spend $ 1 million, but he would spend that amount in a few years to hire a pilot and to take care of the helicopter and its maintenance.

Jake would definitely have to buy a helicopter in the future, but he would do it only after receiving the money from the sale of the shares of the company Cisco after that Jake would receive several billion dollars that would give him to live peacefully until the shares of Amazon and Google give more profit.

Not to mention that this year Jake would still receive more money from his sponsors and the Los Angeles Lakers team, it would be more than 12 million dollars and even if Jake didn’t decide to invest he would still have a lot of money.

Jake talked to his mother for a while and then hung up the phone, Jake didn’t call Kate because he knew she was doing a show at that time and after the show, she would be very tired.

The next day the media was still talking about the interview of Jake and the other players on the Los Angeles Lakers team, meanwhile, the players on the Los Angeles Lakers team went to train for the playoff games.

In the next games, there would be no easy opponents and any mistake that the players made could mean the elimination of the Los Angeles Lakers team, each game was important, and if they could they should win the first 3 games to advance to the next stage and to get less tired.

Coach Rambis and the players knew that, so they weren’t distracted by anything and just thought about training to win the playoff games, and it would continue until the Los Angeles Lakers team won the NBA title or were eliminated.

The players had 2 days of intense training without the players getting too tired and on the third day, they were able to rest, on that day of rest Jake called Kate and told her that the Los Angeles Lakers team had made it to the playoffs.

"Hi Kate, I called to say that the Los Angeles Lakers team qualified for the playoffs and won the last game, tomorrow we are going to play the first game of the playoffs."

"I heard about it, congratulations Jake, I know you guys put in a lot of effort and it must be a dream come true for you to make it to the playoffs."

Kate followed the newspapers and watched the results of the Los Angeles Lakers team’s games on television and also looked for Jake’s news, when she could Kate watched the games, so she knew everything that happened to Jake in the NBA.

"It’s really a dream come true, I hope I can make more dreams come true this season, I can win the MVP award and maybe even win the NBA title, even if I don’t make it this was a great season."

"I’m glad you’re enjoying your debut season Jake, I heard some reporters saying it was a shame that you made your NBA debut this season with 50 games if it was another season you and your team would break a lot more records."

"I don’t know if it would really be like that, what happened this season was inevitable to happen, and if it was another season I might not have had that much time playing games on the Los Angeles Lakers team."

Jake said that because that was what he thought when he decided to debut in the NBA this season, next season the Los Angeles Lakers team would have coach Phil Jackson, Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal would be even bigger stars and the Los Angeles Lakers team would have others players.

Jake knew it would be even more difficult for him to play on another NBA team that needed a PG and was able to win the NBA title, facing the Los Angeles Lakers team would be more difficult in other seasons.

Of course, Jake couldn’t tell Kate or anyone else these things, but he himself had asked David to get him to join the Los Angeles Lakers team this season even though he knew everything that would happen.

Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, and Michael Jordan were some of the best players in NBA history and yet they didn’t break many records in their early years playing in the NBA, of course, some of them broke some records, but it was their career over the years that made them the best players.

"I see, I was worried that you would feel bad about debuting this reduced season, I also think that your debut season was incredible, I will not be able to watch all your games in the playoffs, but if you make it to the NBA Finals I will watch all the games."

Jake knew that Kate really wanted to watch all of his important games just as Eva would, but Jake understood that this was impossible in her career, maybe when they announced they were dating and her reputation was greater she could do that.

So Kate said that if Jake made it to the NBA Finals she could convince Lily to let her go to the games to support Jake, surely Lily couldn’t deny it if Jake made it to the NBA Finals.

In addition, Kate thought it was a motivation for Jake to work even harder at the games to ensure that the Los Angeles Lakers team reached the NBA Finals, Jake realized that and was happy with Kate’s concern.

After that Jake talked for a while with Kate and hung up the phone, Jake rested well for the rest of the day and at night the rental car brought Eva to his house, the next day the playoff games of the Los Angeles Lakers and Eva team would begin waited until the last day before the game to arrive in Los Angeles.

That was because Jake had said she couldn’t go back to Miami until the first playoff games ended, so Eva took advantage of Jake’s rented a helicopter and a car and left for Los Angeles just after leaving the restaurant.
