Chapter 127 Off-Season Madness_2

This quickly evolved into a trash talk battle.
Yu Fei was preparing for his Asian tour at the time, and after hearing Simmons's response, he immediately sought out an exclusive interview with ESPN columnist Bill Walton.
Walton happily accepted.
The reason Yu Fei sought Walton was simple; they were friends, and Walton was a columnist who had publicly expressed his affection for Yao Ming. He also didn't appreciate Bill Simmons's so-called sense of humor.
So although Yu Fei answered many questions in the exclusive interview, the real importance lay in his recent verbal spar with Simmons.
"What do you think about Bill saying you have no sense of humor?"
"If that's his sense of humor, I can only say that his mindset is well suited to the suffering the Celtics have endured since 1986."
Walton's article on Yu Fei further heightened the intensity of the situation, but Simmons did not respond, and Yu Fei embarks on his Reebok-arranged Asian Tour in early July.
