Chapter 412 Training for the Movie 6
The Tar Heels team players went back to the university and nobody had seen Jake doing that interview, Coach Guthridge knew that the team was prepared for the ACC tournant and so he gave everyone a two-day rest.
Afterward, they still had three more days to prepare before the first ga of the ACC tournant, Jake would naturally not co ho on those rest days and would only train with Yuen Woo-ping and also train with the basketball team after the rest.
Jake still had a lot to learn before the movie started, even if he learned all the martial arts moves that he would have to use in the movie he would take a long ti to train using that move so he wouldn’t make mistakes when using the cables.
So Yuen Woo-ping taught Jake the movents for a few hours and then trained with Jake for a few hours so that he could better learn what Yuen Woo-ping had taught him.
The most important thing was that it was difficult for Jake to do a Sparring with Yuen Woo-ping¸ because the most important thing was not just to make the movents correctly and use the strength he had, Jake had to learn how to fight with Yuen Woo-ping using movents really hurt Yuen Woo-ping.
After all, he was an actor and the moves were more to pretend to the audience that they were having an exciting fight, but Jake couldn’t really hit a blow because he could hurt the other actors.
At most, they could use so moves that could be easily defended and would not hurt much and these blows Jake could hit to bring more realism to the film, seeing this Jake discovered the truth about so of the films he liked most and saw that maybe learning arts martial arts were not as cool as he thought before.
What Jake didn’t know was that Yuen Woo-ping was really impressed by his talent, Yuen Woo-ping was thinking that in other films that he participated in as a director he could invite Jake to participate in the film because Jake was able to make a film as if he were a martial arts master.
There were so films that they had a hard ti using foreign actors because foreign actors who knew how to fight couldn’t fight the sa martial arts that Yuen Woo-ping used in his films, so soone tall and talented like Jake was an excellent candidate to do one antagonist and a villain soday.
Of course, he knew that it was impossible for Jake to go to China or other places to participate in the filming of a film without the director of the film making a good plan beforehand, but to have Jake in the film he could organize part of the recording for being in the United States and in a few months that Jake had ti.
After all, there were many fight films in which the film’s villain did not appear until the end of the film and only fought the main character, of course, they would have to wait a few years for this to happen and Jake would have to train more because it would be difficult find a double that looks like him.
So Jake continued training with Yuen Woo-ping and it looked like he could easily join the film crew in Australia and not have to worry about the fight scenes he would have to do.
After two days of rest, the Tar Heels team players went back to training, that day also ca out the article that showed the interview that Jake had done, Jake read and was pleased to see that the reporter had written everything exactly as he said and did not distort his words.
Even though Jake tried to make only statents about things that were reality trying to show his humility, many basketball players and teams did not like the part of the story that Jake had talked about them.
He naturally hoped that there were people who would not like what he had to say, the most important thing was that Tar Heels fans who were concerned about the ACC tournant and the NCAA tournant were able to relax more after watching this interview.
The players had also been happy to see in the story that Jake really trusted the team, they had less pressure with the ACC tournant starting and those two days of rest can prepare players for the next gas.
The players did not do any intense training in the next few days because they would have three gas in three days in a row without a day off and everyone knew that it would be difficult to maintain their best physical condition.
So in the next few days, Jake continued training with the Tar Heels team and also with Yuen Woo-ping, in a few more weeks they would finish training for the cable fights and also train for the fights they would normally have.
After all, it was not in all the fight scenes in the film that Jake and the other actors would be put on a cable to make movents impossible to make without this equipnt, they would also have scenes of struggles as in any action film and Jake would have to learn to do these scenes correctly.
After almost a week of training ca the day of the Tar Heels team’s first ga at the ACC tournant, just as last season would be three gas on three consecutive days and the gas would be at the Greensboro Coliseum.
The opponent of that ga would be the NC State Wolfpack team that was a tough opponent in the last ga between them, in addition, it was the NC State Wolfpack team that was the opponent in the final of the ACC tournant last season.
Even though the Tar Heels team players were confident in this ga because they were in great physical condition, they still respected their opponents and knew that this was going to be a ga and that they had to concentrate.
The Tar Heels team had to win this ga if they wanted to win the ACC tournant and continue with the winning streak, Jake was very focused and knew that in this ga he had to have a great performance if he wanted to guarantee the victory of the Tar Heels team.
"Welco to everyone who is here to follow this incredible ga this season at College basketball, today’s ga is the first ga of the most disputed tournant of all the ACC conferences."
"The Tar Heels team that won last season has been doing an impressive season and is breaking records with this current team that has incredible players like Jake Smith and Antawn Jamison who are vying to see who is the best player this season."
"The opposing team in this ga is the NC State Wolfpack team, it is the third ga between these two teams that played in the final of the ACC tournant last season that the Tar Heels team won, in the last ga the NC State Wolfpack team also impressed by making the Tar Heels team suffer to win."
"We will follow this ga to find out which team will win and continue in the ACC tournant."
The Tar Heels team soon started strong in the ga by pressing in the attack, Coach Guthridge did not underestimate the opponent and asked the Tar Heels team to press in the attack from the beginning and that Jake organized the plays to try to keep the players from getting too tired.
Coach Guthridge’s idea was that if the Tar Heels team played a good ga in the 1st half, they would place the reserves to play for longer and thus let the starting players rest for the next ga that would be the next day.
Naturally, if the ga was difficult he would leave the team complete, after all, they had to win this ga against the NC State Wolfpack team in order to play the next ga in the ACC tournant the next day.
In the first few minutes of the ga, Jake realized that Carter was not performing well in that ga and could not score, so Jake decided that he would talk to Coach Guthridge about it at the end of the 1st half.
In the 1st half, Carter could still help the team by attracting the attention of the defensive players of the NC State Wolfpack team, in another play Jake advanced the ball and passed to Carter on the left before the three-point line.
Carter did not know that Jake had decided not to make assists for him and thought to help the team, Carter tried the feint and could not get rid of the opposing player, so Carter passed the ball to Jamison who was further ahead on the left.
Jamison also tried to get rid of the defense and advance to the painted area, but as he couldn’t pass the ball to Jake who was further back in the middle, Jake received the ball and soon stepped back and tried an outside shot to make three more points for the Tar Heels team.
Jake had decided that he would try his best performance in all gas to guarantee the victory of the Tar Heels team until they won the NCAA tournant, so he did not hesitate to try the three-point shot when he was free.
In this ga the players of the NC State Wolfpack team were not playing very well as they did in the last ga against the Tar Heels team, Jake was defending against Clint Harrison just in case and was also defending against other players in the three-point line.
In another move the NC State Wolfpack team was trying another attack and after a good move the ball went to Harrison, Jake was away from him to defend against other players and he tried the shot from outside and Jake moved quickly and still managed the block.
What the basketball experts always said was that Jake’s strong point was that he was very talented, it wasn’t his three-point shot, but his speed, that speed helped him defend well and attack quickly without adversaries could not prevent.
In that move Jake was far from where Harrison was when he attempted the shot from outside, but when Harrison started the three-point shot Jake approached quickly and still managed to block and end the NC State Wolfpack team’s attack.
