CP3 had gotten the ball once again as he crossed over Dwyane Wade and went up for a layup this time Carmelo didn't leave LeBron causing Chris Paul to easily score the point as they had three points now. 

Wade and Melo had only zero points, so Wade slapped his cheeks as he said: "come on man wake up we gotta win this game". Carmelo just nodded his head as he said "yes because I hate losing"  they both got fired up as Chris Paul was surprised by how serious they looked. 

CP3 smiled as he said, "come on guys this is just a fun small game". Wade responded by saying " it's more than just a game".  This saying went on later in the future to be one of the NBA themes. 

They checked up the ball and Chris Paul crossed over Dwyane Wade going for the layup but this time Wade stretched over Chris Paul and blocked the ball as the rebound went to Carmelo who also got excited and took the ball back and pa.s.sed it back to Dwyane Wade. 

Chris Paul did not recover fast enough so Wade went in for an easy dunk. LeBron frowned as he just thought this game would be much harder now. Dwyane Wade checked up the ball to Chris Paul and pa.s.sed it to Carmelo who was asking for the ball while posting up LeBron. 

Melo did a quick turn around and shot the ball to give them their second point. Chris Paul was not intimidated by them as he checked up the ball once up again. Dwyane Wade crossed up Chris Paul and just when he was about to drive it in he felt that the ball was not there anymore as he looked back. 

Chris Paul had stripped the ball from him and was taken a shot from the 3-point line which would give them two points and gave them the win. Dwyane Wade was shocked to see the ball in  CP3's hands as he tried to block it while running towards him, but it was too late. 

CP3 had already released the ball as it went in the hoop making a splash sound and giving them the win. The crowd was cheering for them as LeBron and Chris Paul had won the game against Dwyane Wade and Carmelo. 

We were in the locker room clapping our hands from the spectacular game that we had just watched and it had even gotten us all hyped up. Meanwhile, in the Miami locker room, it was dull as Gin and Aki were drawing up plans to stop me. 

They didn't watch the game so they weren't as hyped up as the Maryland team was as they got ready to head back on the court. When the game started back up again Gin could see a different light in the Maryland player's team as he thought what happened to them to make them look so motivated.  

They seemed like they weren't even taking the Miami Team series as they came out laughing and staring down the Miami team as if they were a meal to eat. I was all fired up as Gin shook his head thinking that it was nothing serious. 

Gin pa.s.sed the ball to Aki to organize the play. Aki ran down the lane and pa.s.sed it to the shooting guard but before the ball could get to him Tim had already intercepted the ball and ran down the lane. Gin ran up to Tim who looked like he was about to lay it up but threw the ball behind him as Ben our small forward caught the ball and slammed it in.  

The crowd went crazy once again as we took the lead. That was the first time that one of the regular members had scored a point so Gin was pretty annoyed by this but he didn't think too much into it and continued to play his game. 

Tim brought down the ball just when Aki was about to activate his ability to steal it. I had come from behind Tim as I told him to pa.s.s me the ball which canceled Aki's ability. Aki frowned after I got the ball and forgot to defend as I took the shot giving us three more points and now we were up by 5 points. 

Gin told Aki to focus otherwise they were going to lose that game causing Aki to wake up. Gin had no clue why our team was all of a sudden so fired up after the break but he needed to put a stop to it before our lead got bigger. 

The next play started as Gin took the ball down himself, he crossed over Kent our power forward to go in for another thunderous dunk. I told Kent not to dwell on it that we were going to return those two points with a three anyway so there was no point in worrying about one little two pointers. 

The game continued as I brought down the ball and got to pick from Tim and Momba. They had set a double pick in order to get me free for the three-point shot. Gin and Aki were getting quite annoyed with the support that I was getting but they didn't give up as they also kept pus.h.i.+ng forward. 

Even though Gin and Aki could not shoot 3-pointers, their defense and their will to get inside the paint were unbeatable. The game continued as it kept going back and forth in scores eventually we were down to the last minute as the clock wined down. 

We were still up by five points the Miami coach put Aki on the bench due to fatigue while Gin was still as energized as ever. The bench had come in but I have never left the game as we continue to play. Gin looked like he still didn't give up as he went in for another dunk over multiple defenders. 

I returned his dunk with a three-point shot right after at the half-court line. Gin grounded his teeth as he finally admitted defeat. The seconds went down to zero as everybody hopped on the court cheering as they had finally won the NCAA tournament for the first time in years. 

The crowd was pretty hyped, there were a lot of people on the court as they lifted me up and started cheering for me. Gin said his goodbyes to me and told me to keep up the good work and that he would definitely see me next season as he was going to stay in college for one more year in order to build his status in the states. 

Gin wanted to enter the NBA next season after his junior year. I agreed and told him that I also will be staying in college for one more year before heading to the NBA.
