The 2015 Academy Awards ceremony "Yes! 》 became the protagonist.
After the award ceremony, the entire NBA focused on NBA players such as Kobe Bryant, Yao Ming, Tracy McGrady, Anthony, Wade, Roy, and Yeez who won the statuette.
There have been many superstars and epoch-making stars in the history of the NBA, but before this Oscar ceremony, there had never been a star who won a statuette in Hollywood.
At that time, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar made a guest appearance in Hollywood and studied under Bruce Lee. In fact, he was the epitome of NBA players who were in Hollywood, just for fun.
When Kobe wanted to make a movie while he was recovering from his injuries, everyone felt that Kobe was just for fun.
I didn’t expect that Wan Piao would make such big news!
This blew up the entire NBA.
Even NBA commissioner David Stern stood up and expressed his opinion.
"Congratulations to Kobe, Wade, Anthony, Roy, Ye, Yao Ming, Tracy McGrady and other players for their great achievements in Hollywood, and thank them for their significant contributions to the NBA and basketball. They are true legends, and they are also the eternal treasures of the NBA. Legend, finally, thanks to Coach D, he created a miracle that the NBA never imagined!"
Even people like David Stern are extremely excited and excited at this time.
For a time, the entire NBA was discussing the Lakers last season and "Yes!" ”, because “Yes! "A huge success in Hollywood, winning six major awards in one fell swoop. "Yes!" was originally in theaters! "The box office soared again.
Especially in China, originally "Yes!" "After the box office in China exceeded 2 billion, it fell into decline. However, after the Oscars, "Yes! "It actually made another 150 million at the box office that day. I don't know how many people came over to check it out. I don't know how many people who are not basketball fans came over to witness the legend.
China's first Oscar-winning actor, is this influence a joke?
Finally, "Yes!" "The box office forecast in China is 3 billion, which is equivalent to close to 500 million U.S. dollars. Adding in the 350 million U.S. dollars in North America, the box office in China and the United States alone will exceed 850 million. .
"Yes!" "It is true that it is only popular in China and the United States. However, for the entire world, the popularity of China and the United States is actually enough.
The rest of the world only needs to contribute US$150 million to make "Yes!" "The box office revenue exceeded 1 billion US dollars.
Originally, many people felt that "Yes!" "The global box office of "has stopped at around 900 million U.S. dollars. Unexpectedly, an Oscar directly helped "Yes!" 》Easily made 1 billion US dollars.
The world's first billion-dollar box office sports movie is about to be born.
This sweet dream of Kezi, to be honest, is a bit awesome!
It even feels a bit powerful on each side!
Du Kang was very happy for Kezi, and of course he was happy for himself. The money he invested was not wasted.
"Yes!" 》The box office of this movie can be distributed to the producers, which is about 370 million to 400 million. Du Kang invested one-eighth of it. Excluding the actors, screenwriters and main creators, it is almost 10%. , you can get 330 million to 360 million, which is about 40 million US dollars.
Investing 10 million U.S. dollars and collecting 40 million U.S. dollars in one year, making 30 million U.S. dollars. This is so cool. In order to support Kezi, Du Kang really went bankrupt.
It's a pity that the 20 million announced later was not used because the movie was too popular, otherwise Du Kang's proportion could be higher.
This wave made Du Kang, who was somewhat strapped for loans after buying Magic's Lakers shares, instantly relax.
Moreover, the bulk of Hollywood movie revenue is actually not the box office, but subsequent copyright revenue.
Like "Yes!" "For a super hit movie like this, the global video copyright revenue will be super huge.
The global box office and North American box office and "Yes!" "Similar to Iron Man 3, global video copyright revenue reached US$135 million in North America and US$155 million internationally. North American TV revenue reached US$77 million, while international TV revenue reached US$9. million US dollars.
Nearly 500 million were collected from the image copyright alone, "Yes!" "Even if it is not a superhero movie and is not that universal, with a 20% discount, it would still be 400 million US dollars.
In addition to licensing these image copyrights, Hollywood movie theaters also often sell videotapes, DVDs, etc., which is a lot of money. In North America, the revenue from videotapes is equal to the box office of movies, such as Saving Private Ryan.
In addition, there are also movie peripherals, "Yes!" "movie peripherals, that's awesome.
2013 and "Yes!" "Frozen," a genre film with a similar box office, generated US$5 billion in sales of peripheral derivatives.
Therefore, Hook, Dazi, even Ningzi, Anta, I don’t know how many sports brands are now competing for "Yes!" 》Periphery.
It can be said that the subsequent income brought by this film to Du Kang is at least 100 million US dollars.
Kezi's wave is really amazing.
Du Kang felt like a film and television tycoon.
In this wave, Du Kang, Jim Shu, and Aunt Jenny all took off by relying on Kezi.
Players, executives, and even some staff members of the Lakers team all invested in Kozi's film to a greater or lesser extent.
Du Kang's return rate may reach 14 times. If you invest one yuan, it will become 14 yuan. Isn't this right?
Therefore, "Yes!" 》After the Oscar explosion, the morale of the Lakers went straight to the sky!
Both the staff and players within the Lakers team were in a happy mood at this time.
Even the team's chief trainer, Gary Vitti, was much kinder when guiding the team's training.
He and Kezi were good friends, and he invested 100,000 US dollars in Kezi. He originally thought he was going to go bankrupt, but unexpectedly, 100,000 US dollars turned into at least 1.4 million US dollars.
It’s you, you’re confused too!
However, with such high morale, the Lakers are not without worries. The Lakers' only center, Jokic, will be suspended for 40 games and will be reimbursed for the entire regular season.
The Lakers have 28 games left in the regular season.
He has been suspended for these 28 games, and will be suspended for 12 more games in the playoffs. Even if he plays seven games in the first round, he will not be able to come back until G6 in the second round.
It can be said that Jokic should come back in the Western Conference Finals.
If the Lakers can reach the Western Conference Finals in the West.
Although Jokic has been carrying the title of parallel import with the Lakers this season, as the No. 1 pick, although he is not qualified, it does not mean that he is really a rookie.
You can say that Kwame Brown is the number one draft pick, but you can't say that Kwame Brown is a rookie. His defense is still very good, but his offense is too lacking in confidence.
You can also say that Milicic is second in the list, but you can't say that Milicic is a rookie. Milicic's defense is also very good sometimes.
The same is true for Jokic. Jokic is not worthy of the No. 1 pick and is a parallel import No. 1 pick. This is no problem, but Jokic's certain talents as a playmaking center are still very good. He can be regarded as a beggar's bankrupt version of Yao Ming. Coach D's Farke basketball system is still very effective.
Now that the Lakers are missing such a player, their strength will definitely be affected.
Therefore, after the Lakers beat the Celtics, their record reached 50 wins and 4 losses. The major betting companies offered odds for the Lakers to beat the Bulls' regular season record. The odds given were not high. It seems that most of the betting companies The company is optimistic that Coach D will lead the Lakers to break the Bulls' record.
However, with Jokic's regular season reimbursement, the odds of the entire betting company have undergone dramatic changes.
It's not that the bookmakers are looking down on the Lakers.
The betting company's odds changes mainly come from dog betting.
After Jokic was reimbursed for the regular season, a large number of bettors bought in that the Lakers would collapse, and there was definitely no way to break the Bulls' record.
Therefore, the Lakers' odds are artificially high.
This directly stunned Lakers fans.
Lakers fans have already taken action, and the all-in pressure on the Lakers will definitely break the record.
When they bought it at that time, they lost 2 for 1. If they invested one yuan, they could earn 2 yuan. But what about now?
The odds were as bad as 20 to 1!
It seems that they have made a profit. After investing 1 yuan, they can earn 20 yuan!
However, no matter how you look at it, it looks more like you invested 1 yuan and got nothing!
For a time, the whole of Los Angeles was wailing.
This is also a great sight.
The morale of the team exploded, and the morale of the fans was about to cry.
As the head coach of the Lakers, Du Kang certainly saw this situation.
In the NBA, the relationship between the team and the community is very close.
Therefore, as the representative of the Lakers, Lakers assistant coach Nash, after feeling such public opinion, accepted the team's task, proactively went to the community to find the leaders of various fan organizations, and repeatedly expressed his opinions to these leaders.
"You have to believe Coach D. This season there is no Kobe, no Yao Ming, no Tracy McGrady, no Roy. Who would have thought that we could achieve such a record? Now we just don't have Jokic anymore. Do you think Jokic is better than Are Kobe, Yao Ming, Tracy McGrady and Roy still important?
So far this season, our only goal is to try to break the Bulls' regular season record. There is no room for negotiation on this point. This is what Coach D thinks. So, please rest assured, feel at ease, continue to support the Lakers, and let Let's move forward together! "
As a representative of the Lakers, Nash has a huge reputation in the community. Lakers fans are definitely willing to listen to his words and are willing to believe them.
However, what made Nash a little embarrassed was that on February 23, in the Lakers' home game against the Rockets, the Lakers lost to the Rockets 98-108 at home.
The Lakers lost quite miserably in this game. They lost to the Rockets by 12 points in the first quarter and 16 points in the first half.
The Rockets' unlimited defense has done a lot of damage to the Lakers' French basketball style.
Brother Deng called out Seth Curry crazily in this game. He changed defenses endlessly and called out crazy names, which directly defeated the Lakers.
In this game, Deng made 32 free throws in a single game. Damn it, the Rockets made 50 free throws in a single game!
At the end of the game, many Lakers fans at the scene were wondering if Deng's hands were useless in free throws. In the first half, Deng made 15 of 16 free throws, and in the second half, Deng made 10 of 16 free throws. The gap was too obvious.
However, despite Deng's free throws, which seemed to have injured his hand, the Lakers fans at the scene did not shout a black whistle.
Brother Deng played really hard in this game.
It’s really not that he deliberately targeted Seth Curry, but that Seth Curry really couldn’t resist Deng’s roll call.
Brother Deng's singles play is much better than James' singles play.
When called by James, Seth Curry can even choose to let James pass directly.
But when James Harden called him out, whether Seth Curry really let it go or not, he was beaten to tears.
It can only be said that Brother Deng is indeed Kudi’s lifelong enemy.
During his rookie season last season, he was almost knocked out of his mentality by Brother Deng. Now that he is the biggest candidate for MVP, he still has to be knocked out of his mentality.
In this game, Seth Curry was committed six fouls and left the game. At the same time, he made 3 of 13 in the game and 1 of 10 three-pointers, only scoring 8 points.
In just one game, Seth Curry lost his No. 1 spot in the MVP rankings.
In the past month, against the Rockets in two games, he was directly killed one-on-one by Deng. In the two games combined, he made 2 of 29 three-pointers.
This really doesn’t work!
Brother Deng is also an MVP competitor.
In the face of competitors, with such a performance, you, the MVP, are very unconvincing!
It's not that MVP can't lose, but he can't perform like this when facing his direct competitors. Otherwise, he really won't be able to convince the public.
The Lakers and Rockets have only three games this season.
Now that three games have been played, Seth Curry can only wait until the playoffs if he wants revenge.
Compared with Seth Curry, Wade, who was emotionally unstable last month, basically rarely breaks down on the court, even if his mood is so unstable, he is a stable player.
After the All-Star Game, Wade's performance returned to normal and his level returned.
This loss to the Rockets was able to last until the fourth quarter, and Wade took the greatest credit.
Wade came off the bench and played 36 minutes in the game, making 15 of 30 shots, 0 of 1 three-pointers, and 10 of 12 free throws. He scored 40 points, 10 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 steals, and 3 blocks in the game. Even though he was defeated, he was still defeated. Glory.
The team's shooting percentage was only 35%, and he shot 50%.
Except for Wade who shot 15 of 30, the rest of the Lakers team shot 13 of 49, which is crazy!
Lakers fans who watched this game wanted to cry.
Starting from Seth Curry, to Pierce, Garnett, Barkley, the whole team is in trouble, only Wade is holding on.
Therefore, after this game, Oden ascended to the first position of MVP, Wade rose to second place, and Deng was ranked third, and Seth Curry dropped directly from first place to fourth place. .
This issue of the official MVP rankings definitely scared Du Kang.
He clearly remembered that he still had an MVP mission.
This season's regular season MVP must be awarded to the Lakers, only then can the task be considered completed.
I originally thought that with Seth Curry and Wade as the double insurance, as long as we win more than 70 games, it should be stable. Unexpectedly, the double insurance of Seth Curry and Wade suddenly became less safe. This It makes people uncomfortable.
no!
We must create the image that everyone else is CBA and Wade and Seth Curry are MVPs.
MP cannot be used sparingly, it must be used up!
This is the same as his rookie season, when he molded Kobe into the CBA and raised his status with other Lakers players.
Only this time, it is necessary to elevate the status of Wade and Seth Curry and provide some support for the two to compete for MVP.
Of course, 72 wins is something you can definitely strive for!
Just when Du Kang was racking his brains to win a regular season MVP for the Lakers.
Durant, the NBA regular season MVP for the past two years, suddenly got injured!
And it was seriously injured!
On February 21, 2015, Durant never appeared in the public eye again after playing for the Mavericks. As one of the leading stars in the NBA, he suddenly disappeared from the public eye. This is no small matter.
Soon, the news was reported.
After Durant's game against the Mavericks, he felt something strange happened to his body.
Durant was injured in the playoffs with the Lakers last season. Although with Oden's protection, Durant's injury was greatly alleviated.
However, it still resulted in a fracture of the fifth metatarsal of Durant's right foot, which is the legendary Jones fracture. Because of Jones' fracture, Durant had a steel nail implanted in his foot.
After more than four months of rest, Durant caught up with the new season and seemed to have returned to normal. He was still one of the two Thunder monsters who flew into the sky and escaped from the ground.
However, after playing against the Mavericks this time, the whole world learned that Durant's injury has not improved.
Durant, in fact, has always been playing with a strange attitude, but after persisting for most of the season, he finally couldn't hold on anymore.
Keep playing despite the injury!
Finally I couldn't hold on any longer!
"What is the Thunder's management doing? Ibaka is playing with injuries, Westbrook is playing with injuries, and Durant is also playing with injuries. Why can such a team have so many outstanding players? They are committing a crime. !”
"When you have a group of such great players, you should be happy and resolutely protect them, instead of squeezing them for tickets. You are not worthy of having such players!"
After the news broke, Coach D, the head coach of the Lakers, immediately started a group meeting.
The whole world knows that Coach D loves his senior Westbrook the most.
Therefore, no one was surprised that a group was formed on this matter.
After Coach D started the team, Kobe, Tracy McGrady, Yao Ming, Roy, Wade, and even Chris Bosh who was recovering from injury, even Jordan, Larry Bird, Magic, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and even Duran, who loved him most The special old man Russell came out to join the group.
For a time, detonators became the target of public criticism.
Durant's body is abnormal and he has been playing for more than half of the season. It is impossible for Detonator and the Thunder team doctors not to know that their indifference is harming the players. There is actually nothing wrong with this.
And Coach D is indeed qualified to start a group.
Coach D never lets players suffer injuries.
Even the crazy Kobe Bryant, who played injured, became healthy in the hands of the Lakers and coach D. Although Kobe's killing method is very evil, at least Kobe used it when he was healthy.
Faced with such a turbulent public opinion, it is certainly impossible for Detonator to sit idly by and ignore it.
They have been letting Durant disappear. Their plan is very simple, that is, they hope to see if Durant can still persist.
I don’t want to announce that Durant is out for the season and will undergo surgery.
They are also prepared to encourage Durant to play through the injury.
Originally, they were planning to wait until March to see if Durant could persist and rest for about ten days.
Now that Coach D is doing this, the Thunder can only announce in advance.
"KD will undergo bone transplant surgery on his right foot and will be out for the season."
After the Thunder announced the news, the entire NBA exploded!
This is Durant!
Durant is out for the season!
And with such a huge injury, it may not only end the season, it may even end the career!
"The Thunder are finished!"
James' voice was almost trembling after sending a comforting text message to Durant.
Regardless of the fact that the Thunder's regular season record this season is only fifth in the Western Conference, they are undoubtedly one of the three strongest teams in the Western Conference.
The Thunder will definitely be super strong in the playoffs.
Is one of the imaginary enemies of the Celtics.
Now, the imaginary enemy has collapsed!
The pattern of the alliance has changed drastically!
Coach D and the Lakers are ruined!
Thunder collapsed!
"God help me!"
The fisherman's wife has been feeling unwell since she came back from a meeting in Changsha. She went for a check-up a week ago and found out she was pregnant at 40 days. This is good news.
