The Pepsi representative and the people at the advertising company were satisfied with the photos and with Jake's work that day, they had already worked with other artists who were much more annoying and had a lot of demands.

Jake did everything the director of the commercial told and worked for hours without complaining once and also did not make mistakes in the commercials, David was also happy with that because Jake was building a good reputation among advertising companies and among sponsors.

These companies that sponsored Jake were big companies in the market that wasn't even spending a lot of money on that sponsorship, so if they liked Jake and if they realized that the public was buying more of their product because of Jake they could renew the contracts throughout Jake's career and paying a lot more.

David knew that Jake was not pretending and that was his real personality which made his job with Jake so much easier, David knew he didn't have to worry about Jake's personal life because Jake was the type of person who wouldn't bring problems.

After Jake finished doing everything for the recording of the commercial and the photos David reminded Jake that the next day of the next game Jake would have to record the next commercial, David already told Jake that the next commercial was with Chevrolet.

So Jake can go back to his house and go to sleep because the Los Angeles Lakers team had a game the next day, then the day of the next game came and after a few hours, Jake went to the Great Western Forum.

The game that day was against the Sacramento Kings team, the Sacramento Kings team had 11 wins and 17 losses before that game, Jake was worried about that game because in the first game the Los Angeles Lakers team was supposed to lose because of what Jake remembered his past life.

In that game, the Los Angeles Lakers team also lost to the Sacramento Kings team because of what Jake remembered from his past life, that was the reason that Jake was very concerned in that game, in the last game if he didn't try harder than normal to Lakers team would have lost again.

Coach Rambis had to replace Shaquille O'Neal for a few minutes in that game as well so as not to risk Shaq having an injury, Jake and the other players understood that, but it would be harder for the Los Angeles Lakers to win.

At the beginning of the game, the Los Angeles Lakers team started pressing in the attack, Jake knew that in this game he would have to try harder for the Lakers team to win, even so, the Sacramento Kings team also pressed in attack and defense.

The Sacramento Kings team had the second-best attack this season after the Los Angeles Lakers team, but luckily for the Los Angeles Lakers team, the Sacramento Kings team had the worst defense.

In the first quarter, the game was well balanced and Rick Fox was playing very well in that game which helped the Los Angeles Lakers team to put more pressure on the defense, Dennis Rodman who had played well in the last games was also helping on defense.

On the Sacramento Kings team, there were Chris Webber, Corliss Williamson, and Vlade Divac who were playing really well too and that was making things difficult for the Los Angeles Lakers team that was bad.

At the end of the first quarter the Los Angeles Lakers team ended up winning with a big advantage in points, it seemed that if the Los Angeles Lakers team managed to keep the game balanced they would get the victory.

In the second quarter the Sacramento Kings team started to press more in the attack because they knew they needed the victory, the Los Angeles Lakers team continued to press in the attack also because they knew that it was no use just defending against the Sacramento Kings team that had the second-best attack.

Jake knew he would have to try harder in this game and so he started making some steals and blocks in the second quarter and that made things difficult for the Sacramento Kings team to attack, unfortunately, Jake couldn't help much to defend because he had to defend against Jason Williams.

So the game was very balanced again, but the Sacramento Kings team was losing the game by a big difference in points and the balanced game was not very useful for them in that game.

So in the third quarter the Sacramento Kings team started to press hard in the attack and even try to press in the defense, Coach Rambis saw the advantage of the Los Angeles Lakers team and started to replace Shaq for longer and so the Sacramento Kings team also took advantage of that.

The players of the Los Angeles Lakers team were not playing very well in that third quarter and the Sacramento Kings team managed to greatly diminish the advantage, the players of the Sacramento Kings team were also making plays far from where Jake was to avoid him who was the best player in the defense in that game.

So Jake can help by making several shots from three points and thus not letting the Sacramento Kings team tie, in the last quarter the Sacramento Kings team could not stand to press so hard in attack and defense and were more tired.

The game was balanced again and the Los Angeles Lakers team was still winning and had the advantage in points, the game ended with the Los Angeles Lakers team achieving another victory in yet another difficult game.

The Los Angeles Lakers team won the game with 118 points against 106 points from the Sacramento Kings team, in that game Jake was the highlight again and was applauded again by the fans of the Los Angeles Lakers team.

In that game, Jake had 45 points, 11 assists, and 10 steals, getting another triple-double this season, Jake was happy that the Los Angeles Lakers team won another game they would normally have lost.

Shaquille O'Neal did not play very well in that game even though he played for only 31 minutes and scored 24 points, this was one of Shaq's worst games this season and he was not very happy after the game ended.

Kobe Bryant had a good game with 26 points and helped the team to win, Rick Fox also stood out in that game with 21 points, Dennis Rodman also helped the team with 9 rebounds.

The next day the players would have another day of rest and the coach Rambis even released the players from the training that day after all the next two games would also be difficult, the Los Angeles Lakers team was in a sequence of difficult games.

Jake was happy to have a rest day because he was going to record a commercial for Chevrolet the next day and with that rest, he didn't have to worry about training and could record the commercial.

The Gatorade commercial had already started to run on the television stations and the Pepsi commercial would also be ready soon, only the Adidas commercial had to take a while to go on the television stations because Jake's sneakers had to be released together.

Jake was close to bedtime when he got a call from his mom, Jake talked to Eva almost every day, but for the past few days, he knew she was busy organizing the new restaurant menu with Anna and so he decided not to. call her every day.

Jake hadn't realized it earlier because he thought Eva liked to get calls from him after his game was over, but in fact, there was a 3-hour time difference between Los Angeles and Miami.

So when the game was over it was already very late in Los Angeles and it was even later in Miami, even in the morning Jake couldn't call because when he woke up in Los Angeles it was the time that Eva had already entered the restaurant in Miami.

"Hi, Jake, why haven't you called me in the past few days? I was worried about you."

"Sorry about that, mom, you said you were busy at the restaurant organizing the new menu with Anna and I know that when I call you it's too late in Miami, so I decided not to call every day."

"I'm glad to hear that you care about me, Jake, but you should have warned me of this decision you made, I've been worried for the past few days waiting for you to call me."

"Sorry, I was also busy recording commercials and games and I didn't think about it."

"I called you to talk about it, you should have told me that you would be on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, you know I watch that show sometimes."

"Fortunately I was lucky to have the television on that day when you participated in the program, but I couldn't record it because there was no time, you also appeared in a Gatorade commercial."

"I wasn't sure when the program was going to be on television, I also wanted to watch it, I'm going to order a tape recording the program for the broadcaster."

Jake didn't really remember very well if David had spoken when the show was on television, he also wanted to watch to see if he made a mistake when he was on the show.

"Did you say you are recording a lot of commercials? What commercials are you recording?"

"I already recorded this commercial for Gatorade that you saw, I recorded a commercial for Adidas and Pepsi, tomorrow I will record a commercial for Chevrolet and in a few days I will record a commercial for Gillette."

"Now that you've told me that, I'm going to start watching more television in the next few days, so I'm going to watch the commercials you recorded."

Eva was proud to hear that Jake was going to record a commercial for these big companies, Jake had already done many things that impress and make her proud, but Jake still had things that he did that still surprised Eva.

"And you mom, tell me how is the new menu at the restaurant?"

"It's fine, Anna and I have changed the menu completely several times, so we are thinking of bringing to the menu some dishes that were successful in the first years of the restaurant, we think that customers will like this."
