After returning to Seattle from Orlando, several star players of the SuperSonics tried hard to keep external matters from affecting them, but it was difficult to achieve.
As soon as they got off the plane, the SuperSonics' trio was surrounded by reporters.
They were each asked to respond to Iverson's comments.
"I don't know, I haven't seen Nike," Roy quipped smartly. "You know, it's hard to find someone wearing Nike in Seattle."
However, this smart move backfired, as Roy intended to convey that he rarely saw people wearing Nike, so he could not judge, but his teammate Durant was all dressed in Nike.
In contrast, Yu Fei's response was much sharper.
"I won't tell anyone which brand is better, that's your own business. If you like Reebok, wear Reebok, if you like Nike, wear Nike," Yu Fei said, "If it is as AI says, that Nike is outdated, then that's Nike's issue, they should find a way to improve their products."
The one who had the hardest time with this was Durant.
