ESPN specially arranged a pre-game interview for Durant titled "Kevin Durant on What Responsibility Means."
Because of the interview, Durant didn't join the team for warm-ups until 15 minutes before the game started.
However, it didn't seem to have any effect.
Because Yu Fei had arrived.
When Yu Fei entered the court, the audience erupted in screams and cheers; even a casual shot from him made the spectators swoon.
Afterward, the core players from both teams met at midcourt.
On the SuperSonics' side were Yu Fei and Chris Bosh, while the Spurs had Duncan and Iguodala.
"Wouldn't it be better to bring KD along?"
Bosh thought Durant would be more suitable to come with Yu Fei to greet Duncan and the others.
"If it weren't for courtesy, I wouldn't bother with this at all," said Yu Fei, "It's not that important."
Bosh asked, "It might be important to him."
Hearing this, Yu Fei glanced at Bosh.
