187 Olympics 4

I didn't want to be the first one to score; I wanted my team to gain the confidence to fight against these Superstars and to stop being star-struck. I could have sworn I heard somebody ask for an autograph, which pissed me off to no end, but we're finally back to focusing as well. Ola brought down the ball and passed it to me, which Dwyane Wade quickly intercepted. I wasn't about to chase him down. There's no way you're blocking the Flash or out running him.

He went in for a dunk, giving them the six-point lead.

I quickly called a timeout because the guys seemed to be a little distracted. At the bench, the coach was yelling at them, but I told him to calm down. "Everybody is a bit tense right now, so all we need to do is break down the barriers and walls, and after that everything will flow like water. Stick to our system, and we're going to beat them." I told my teammates as they all nodded their heads in understanding. 

I stomped on the ground to get them fired up and said, "Let's win this guy! We're going to go out there and crush those fuckers under our feet! Show them who the real champions are!" They saw the fire in me and got excited as each of them got fired up giving out a full war cry.

The game started up once again, Ola brought down the ball this time crossing over Chris Paul and going into the post where Anthony Davis was there with the center. Anthony Davis left our center Adeda to go check the incoming Ola, but Ola lobbed the ball up, and Adeda caught the ball midair, slamming a thunderous dunk causing the crowd to go crazy. We had set up an alley-oop making the play flow like water.

I was happy for my guys as they had finally made the first point on their own. Now I can go crazy!

LeBron saw what I was trying to do and smiled. It seems like you broke their little wall down, so we'll have to put up another one, LeBron thought to himself.

This time LeBron brought the ball down and just zoomed past everybody and went in for the dunk, he pulled his arm back as he jammed the ball in. I rolled my eyes when I saw this as he looked at me provocatively.

Okay, it's game time then.

This time I brought down the ball, Wade tried to steal the ball from me several times, but I kept my eye on the game and focused. I pretended like I was going to shoot it, causing him to jump up in the air as I went around him and took the shot, bringing the score closer than what was before.

This time Wade brought down the ball as he crossed me over. I couldn't believe how fast he was. His crossovers were so beautiful, and his speed, I couldn't keep up with him as he went and laid it up with little to no effort.

LeBron went up to him and punched him in the guts saying, "Don't say things like that. These are our brothers. If you look at your history, you're African too. You don't know it, so don't be ignorant and start insulting our culture."

My respect for LeBron increased after he said such a thing. I'm so glad that at least somebody has some common sense.

The game continued as we went back and forth. Whenever they were pulling off by a few points, I would catch up easily by making a few threes. They were quite annoyed with me, and by the time the first quarter was over, it was a tie game causing the team USA to be highly irritated. Kobe was yelling at the players, asking them why we were letting a little rookie play on the same level as us.

Kobe looked at his teammates in disappointment "I'm going to check that little kid. Show you how it's done. The rest of you can check whoever, but I don't want to see anybody scoring another point except for our team."

Kobe was pretty mad after seeing me make every shot, thinking Wade was loosely playing defense due to our friendship, but that was not even the case.

The game started over again, and for the second quarter, this time, Kobe was checking me, which surprised me a little, but I knew this was going to come, eventually. Kobe was going to step up and try to stop me but that motivated me to take it to a whole other level. He kept harassing me, but I used that to piss him off even more as I crossed him off so badly he had fallen to the ground, and I took the shot on him causing the crowd to go crazy.

Even LeBron started laughing at him as he said, "oh, I thought you were actually about to do something to handle this kid. But it seems like he took you down even worse than the others." LeBron went to help Kobe up, but Kobe slapped him away. 

"I don't need anybody's help, I'm going to take over this game. Pass me the ball every single time"

Team USA started laughing as they said, 

"oh, Kobe's about to go Kobe on them"
