Chapter 766
After the All-Star break, the regular season continues. The Clippers' schedule is very favorable. They have two days of rest before facing the Spurs' challenge at home on the 21st.
Unfortunately, the role players did not play for six days, and the stars were a little slack. This game was terrible, and they lost to the Spurs 104-116, their second defeat.
Paul's defeat by Parker was the key to victory. Parker made 12 of 16 shots, 7 of 7 free throws, and scored 31 points and 7 assists. Paul played 27 minutes, 1 of 6 shots, 0 of 2 three-pointers, and 2 of 2 free throws. Got 4 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists.
Curry scored 25 points and performed much better than Paul. However, he, Gay and Griffin all missed the mark in the final quarter and failed to reverse and win the game.
On the 23rd, the Clippers easily defeated the Jazz at home and refused to lose consecutive games.
On the 24th, Yang Rui attended the Oscars. This time he was a little excited to walk on the red carpet. In the past, he just joined in the fun, but this time he was a candidate.
Although Yang Rui said on the surface that he didn't care at all, in fact, he really wanted to win an award. This is an honor that will be talked about for a lifetime and is very memorable.
Daniel Day-Lewis won the 85th Academy Award for Best Actor for "Lincoln" and became the first actor in history to win the Oscar for Best Actor three times.
The cameraman gave Leonardo DiCaprio a close-up shot. During a scene in "Django Unchained", his hand hit a cup and he actually bled, but he didn't stop and finished the performance. , the dedication is evident. It's a pity that he didn't even get a nomination this year.
Some people say that Leonardo DiCaprio and Oscar are like the Netherlands and champions, Wang Feng and headlines...
If he hadn't been nominated, DiCaprio wouldn't have been too upset, but his good friend, a guy outside the circle who played for fun, won the award.
The Best Original Screenplay award was awarded to Yang Rui, which surprised countless people.
The script of "Django" has a lot of dramatic dialogue, which can be relaxed and relaxed easily. Some experts analyzed that the reason why it did not win the award is because the film's classic level cannot be compared with "Inglourious Basterds". "Inglourious Basterds" didn't win any awards that year, so this loss is understandable.
Yang Rui hugged Scarlett, Stana, and Nina and then walked onto the podium. The ratings of the award ceremony suddenly reached an all-time high because many fans were waiting to see Yang Rui win the award tonight.
When this award was presented, everyone switched to this channel to witness the historical moment.
This is so fascinating. If Ronaldo wins the World Footballer, no one will be surprised, but if Ronaldo wins the diving championship, everyone will be interested.
Yang Rui held the trophy and said into the microphone: "Thank you to everyone who shared this story with me, thank you to the producer Jennifer, thank you to the director Spike Jonze and all the actors. Especially thank you to Scarlett, if it weren't for her, I would probably I would never have thought of making this movie."
Many people at the scene laughed. They all knew that Scarlett was pregnant and had nothing to do at that time, and wanted to act, so she made this movie.
Yang Rui continued: "This is an award dedicated to all screenwriters. Thank you to the company, thank you to the outstanding performance team, and thank you to my family. This is a common honor for everyone."
The best original song went to "Skyfall". As expected, Song of the Moon has a very small chance of winning, and it has no advantage over "Suddenly" from the musical movie "Les Misérables."
Yang Rui has been in the entertainment news, overshadowing Ben Affleck's best film "Escape from Tehran" and overshadowing the best actor and best actress, Ang Lee, who won the best director for "Life of Pi".
After "The Pope of Basketball", he has another Oscar screenwriter title.
Many fans and players were interviewed. Some said Yang Rui was a genius, some said he was not doing his job properly, and some said he was very lucky and could succeed in anything he did.
Back from the holiday, the Clippers easily defeated the underdog Bobcats, and defeated the Pacers with an incomplete lineup on the 28th. They lost only one game this month, leading the league with 58 wins and 2 losses.
In Los Angeles, the situation of the Lakers and the Clippers are two extremes.
There was infighting in the team's locker room, infighting among the management, and Jerry Buss also passed away at this juncture.
After the Lakers fired Byron Scott, many people hoped that Phil Jackson could come back to coach. Jim Buss refused to hire Phil Jackson. Since the team confirmed Mike Brown as the new coach, Jeanie Buss has Didn't say a word to Bass Jr.
The Los Angeles media always described Jim Buss as an incompetent second generation. Buss often watched the Lakers' draft workouts in person, while Jim played horse racing while watching them. "Magic" Johnson once said publicly: "I don't believe Jim Buss." He sold his shares in the Lakers in 2010. I wonder if he had a premonition of today's civil unrest and decided to withdraw early.
What is even worse than the death of the boss is that in the remaining games of this season, the Lakers players will wear the abbreviation "**" of Buss's name on their jerseys to commemorate the boss. Soon, Chinese fans will feel that they are fortressing.
The Lakers are already in a mess. Dwight Howard said in an interview a few days ago: "Everyone has made sacrifices for our team, and some people must have sacrificed more than others."
It's obvious that Howard is dissatisfied with his "non-core status" in the team. The conflict between him and Kobe has become irreconcilable, and they no longer speak in the team.
According to the New York Post, during the All-Star Weekend, Howard sneaked into the locker room to put on Kobe Bryant's jersey, and then imitated Kobe in front of all the stars. However, this "humor" did not have good results. Then Kobe also arrived in the locker room. He greeted everyone in a friendly manner, but said nothing to Howard. During the entire All-Star Game, Kobe tried every means to stay away from Howard.
It was also revealed that some players on the Lakers felt that Howard did not intend to use his full strength to help the team. Kobe was nonchalant when it came to whether the team would trade Howard, and it seemed like he didn't mind the Lakers sending Howard away.
Senior NBA reporter Chris Sheridan believes that there is a 50% chance that the Lakers will send Howard to the Pacers. "I talked to Howard a lot at the All-Star Game in Houston, and Howard was really in pain, and I've never seen a player in as much pain as he is right now. Howard said he wanted games to be fun again."
However, Lakers general manager Kupchak insisted that the team will not trade Howard during the season and will wait until July to see whether Howard will renew his contract with them.
The most controversial one is of course Kobe. After O'Neal and Yao Ming left one after another, the league's third best center planned to leave the Lakers again.
The Lakers have so many stars, but their goal is just to reach the playoffs. Pau Gasol couldn't help but publicly stated that Kobe should not always be the initiator of offense, and the team's offense should not be initiated from Kobe. Sometimes this makes The Lakers were at a standstill on offense. He should move the ball on the court for the team. This is the way to win.
Kobe often expressed the need to pass more passes to his teammates, especially to Howard.
In the previous game against the Timberwolves, Kobe fulfilled his promise in the first three quarters and contributed 7 assists. However, Kobe only had 7 assists in the game. In the crucial fourth quarter, he had no assists.
In the first three quarters, the Lakers led by 12 points, 91 to 79. With 4.2 seconds left in the fourth quarter, Pekovic scored 2 points on a tip-in. The Timberwolves chased the score to 117-119 and almost succeeded in a comeback.
In the last game against the Bucks, Kobe only sent out 3 assists, and the Lakers lost. On the court, Kobe still believed in himself more often and chose to play alone.
More and more people believe that Kobe is a cancer and his personality has collapsed.
