Rasta wanted to bet on this game but after what happened last time he wasn't sure if he should. After losing so much money on his last bets he was now scared to even try it again but I had called him and told him to make that bet on me just not too much as I wasn't too sure how this game will turn out to be. During halftime, we were only down by one point as we went to the locker rooms to rest.
The halftime show was lit as Rick Ross came to perform and had hyped the crowd up more. The commentators were talking about how the game was going so far and arguing back and forth who was going to take this game and the crown of being the best baller.
While we were in the locker room discussing our next plan of action Coach G told me not to be scared and not to hold back anymore. Coach told me to go nuts and that this was the biggest game ever as he had noticed that I've been holding back all season so he told me not to pass the ball in this next quarter and just shoot from anywhere and anyhow I want.
This surprised me as I asked him if he could really tell that I was holding back, Coach nodded his head and looked at me seriously. The rest of the team also nodded their heads and said: "go off, let loose". I smiled as I thank them for their support, the time had arrived when it was time to get back into the game.
We were down by one point as it had been decided that I shouldn't hold back anymore. I didn't want to let my teammates down by holding myself back and losing the game so it was time to go all out. The game started we got the ball inbound, as soon as Tim passed me the ball from the inbound I took the shot causing everybody there to be shocked. Aki laughed while the ball was in the air, he started saying I've lost my mind to start shooting from the other side of the court.
Everybody there started to laugh until they heard the ball go through the net "swish" and just like that we took the lead back. Aki was so angry about this as he gave a new order to use the full-court press. Aki told his team to always have two people on me as he brought the ball down. Aki quickly made his way through traffic and laid it up.
I let him do that because I noticed he started to breathe heavily as he started to get tired. I took this chance to continue playing with my second ability. I wasn't going to come out of the game at all. I had to pretend at one point that I was tired which gave Aki confidence to keep playing but I wanted him to run his way around the court the whole game until he passed out.
I let Aki go where he wanted as we continued to go back and forth with the lead. Aki started missing layups due to his fatigue so he started to pass the ball more, but due to this, I was getting more steals as the anti-time freeze only worked on Aki but didn't work on his other teammates.
Aki was so angry when he got to the side of the court, he kicked the Gatorade jug down making the drink splash everywhere. The referee immediately called an ejection as he was ejected from the game. The whole crowd started to boo and Aki was beyond pissed as he stormed off to the locker room hitting everything in his way.
I started laughing happily as this revenge was well fought for. I had worried for nothing as I thought one day I'll ask him for revenge on the hand to hand combat and beat him in that too. I probably could have won if I had thrown at least one punch but he had taken advantage of my surprise and used it to beat me.
I ended up scoring a high record of 130 pts, highest in college basketball and potentially NBA. Everybody was now convinced that I was still the king and the number one player in the college basketball world. Commentators were praising me non-stop, ESPN felt pretty stupid after they had talked a lot of crap about me.
I had finally regained my spot of the number one player in college basketball ever to play the game. The game ended as we went to greet the other team they all looked so depressed that their captain had disappeared on them at the last minute. I sneakily told some of them to join my team when the season is over.
Aki's other teammates wanted him to be around even if he wasn't playing, the mental support could have let them play harder but after Aki threw a temper tantrum they lost all respect for the guy. The fans left disappointed but satisfied at the same time because it was such a great game they were able to witness a record-breaking game.
After the game, we all went to celebrate hard as we were in Miami. I had met up with Rihanna as we went to go eat with the rest of the team. Everybody was excited not only because Rihanna was around but they had won the game of the century. Miami college had made a killing at the box office, even the amount of money that they used to rent the place quadrupled as they made quite the profit.
They had no hard feelings towards this loss as they made quite a lot of money and didn't mind seeing it again. I know Aki would train his stamina after this in order to keep up with me but it was impossible for him to do it especially after I witnessed his weakness. I would use that to my advantage every time we meet up for a game.
