We have been here before so I don't know why he was so nervous in the first place but we continue to play. Me and Durant was going back and forth. Harden was a bit cold during this game so Durant and Westbrook were working together but no matter what they did I was still shooting my shot and by the time halftime had came we were up by 15 points. When we got into the locker room I checked my phone just for a quick second and noticed I had several missed calls from my ex-girlfriend Sandra's father.

I quickly returned the call and that's when he had told me that there had been a huge accident and Sandra was hurt very bad and needed surgery right away but the only problem was that they didn't have insurance and her father didn't have the money to start the surgery so they were asking around if anybody had it but n.o.body had it and they called me as a last resort to see if I had it.

I stopped everything I was doing and quickly rushed out everybody was confused by this and coach was yelling at me to come back this was the final game I can't just bail on them now. I told them that it was an emergency and left without explaining anything to them and told them to continue the game and that we have the lead so they will be okay as I quickly got dressed and ran out. I caught a cab to the hospital that they were located at and quickly met up with Sandra's family.

Sandra's father was so happy to see me he quickly hugged me with tears in his eyes saying that he had no choice but to call me. I rea.s.sured him that it was okay as I went to go to pay the amount they needed for the surgery and it was quite an expensive surgery due to all the things they needed to fix. The cost came out to almost $100,000, thanks to all the bets that we have been making that year I was able to pay for the full amount.

As soon as I paid they got to work with the surgery. I stayed with their family for some time and they could not stop thanking me enough for what I did but I told them it was no problem and that I had the money so why not use it to help a friend. Later on that night the whole team had showed up after they found out what had happened, they were a bit sad because they had lost the game after I left.

n.o.body could outscored Durant who had caught on fire and was just going wild with Westbrook even Harden started to catch on fire unleas.h.i.+ng a barrage of threes due to me not being there to cover him.Harden was going off my subst.i.tute and had even messed up his ankles too, harden crossed him up so much he had to seek medical attention. I was so mad that we had blown a 15-point lead and lost the finals but a life was more important then a game which I was glad I left and had no regrets doing so.

When the media got hold of this they praised me for sacrificing the final game to save an ex girlfriends life and thought that I was the most nicest person in the world but in my head after seeing that news all I could do was laugh because I knew I wasn't that. A lot of people didn't agree with what I had done but a lot of people had praised me especially the females. The males were bas.h.i.+ng me because I had cost them the finals in a big tournaments for a female and ex-girlfriend at that so I was getting bashed left and right.

My teammates didn't really care they were just glad to be in the finals and appreciated me for taking them all the way up there because they wouldn't have even made the tournament in the first place if it wasn't for me. Coach was retiring too so that was his final year and he was happy to be in the tournament once again even though we didn't win the whole thing it was all good. After a few weeks Sandra had finally opened her eyes to see her family around.

They were all happy to see her, they called me immediately to let me know that she had healed and that I should come and see her. I declined their offer and told them that she's still my ex-girlfriend and when she is ready to see or talk to me then I will gladly accept but except for that I'll try to stay away from her. I was just helping her out, when Sandra heard that I had saved her life she was very conflicted and appreciative of me. The love that she had for me was coming back to her after she heard everything I had done including giving up the final game for her which she knew that it was very important for my future.

The Maryland Terps had heard about this was conflicted if they around should still bring me on the team. They didn't want anybody that would abandon the team for a female. After they saw multiple videos of my games they changed their minds and continued to promote my welcome to the school. I got a full ride to the University of Maryland as I had made preparations for it for a long time.

It was almost graduation time and everybody was excited about it. Sandra was back on her feet and in school catching up so that she would be able to graduate on time. Sandra finally came to see me and had even gotten on her knees telling me that she appreciated everything and hope that in the near future we would be able to get back together but I told her that maybe one day but for now I'm going to focus on basketball and I don't really have time for relations.h.i.+ps which she agreed and we went our separate ways once again.
