Chapter 273 The Beginning of the Season at College Basketball 5
It seemed like a reaction was going on, just Jake wasn't that quiet, he could have changed a few things coming into the game but he couldn't stop Dickerson from making his points.
While defending against Mark Bibby was already tiring and difficult for Jake, he again understood that university games were different from high school, only by using his agility that had greatly improved since high school that Jake could have some advantage in that game.
So Jake couldn't help anyone in defense while scoring Bibby, as Bibby was the PG of the team he was the one who set up the moves, yet Jake defending against him couldn't help much in the game.
In another Wildcats attack with an engaging play again Dickerson was left free and tried another 3-point shot to miss this time, Jake again was alert and managed to catch another rebound.
Jake passed the ball to Carter who advanced while Jake went to position himself in the attack after Carter advanced without the opposing defense disturbing he passed to Jake the ball again, Jake pretended to make a pass for Jamison and Bibby was tricked.
So Jake seized and stepped back and tried another shot from outside to make Tar Heels 3 points further and reduce the lead to just 2 points, all quickly rearranging themselves in defense and Wildcats was no longer calm and advanced to the attack.
"What an amazing game my friends, from a lead that reached 9 points dropped to just 2 points, only one attack can bring the upset to the Tar Heels team."
"It looks like the Wildcats team is relying a lot on freshman Mark Bibby and Michael Dickerson, they are having a great match, but everyone can go wrong and in two mistakes the Tar Heels team made the difference."
"We have to give a lot of merit to Jake who got into this game very well, he was directly responsible for this turnaround and in these two errors of the opposing team Jake got a steal and a rebound in addition to an assist and 3 points made."
"It's really amazing what he did with just 6 minutes on the court, now the game is over, let's keep watching to see if a historic turnaround can happen."
In the next attack by Wildcats, Jamison made a mistake in the defense and left Simon with a chance to score, Jake had to abandon Bibby's defense to prevent Simon from making the move freely.
So Simon saw that Bibby got free and passed the ball quickly behind when Jake was getting in the cover, so Bibby was free to try an outside shot and make 3 more points and return the lead to 5 points.
Tar Heels struck again shortly after, this time Jake only touched the ball twice and it was Jamison who eventually made the pass for Carter who made a feint and drive to the basket to make a layup to make 2 more points and decrease the difference to 3 points.
In the other play, Simon could advance again on Jamison's defense and made 2 more points bringing the difference back to 5 points, the game was coming in the final minutes and the advantage was not diminishing.
As the players from Tar Heels became impatient and Jake received the ball less, Jamison passed the ball to Zwikker who was heavily marked, so Zwikker turned the ball over to Carter who was off the three-point line and attempted the shot.
Unfortunately, as he was not well-positioned, he missed, so Jake was far behind and could not fight for the rebound with Bennett Davison, so they missed the chance to lower the score again.
