Although Yu Fei, Jordan, and Collins all emphasized that there was nothing wrong between them, the sports headlines of the major newspapers the next day inevitably placed photos of Yu Fei and Jordan's spat on the front page.
One could discern their intentions through the headlines of various media outlets.
The Washington Post's headline was: Frye and Michael Respect Each Other Amidst Quarreling.
The New York Times' headline was: Michael Still Hasn't Learned to Coexist Harmoniously with the Younger Generation.
The Los Angeles Times' headline was: A Prominent Rookie Leaves MJ at a Loss.
The most significant was The Seattle Times: Frye Is D.C.'s Most Crucial Player to Date, Not Michael, Which Is Why They Cannot Get Along.
No matter what, the matter had blown up.
Yu Fei also went from being the team's "Anti-Mike" to being publicly recognized as "Anti-Mike."
