(Two-In-One)
This season, the League had reduced the amount of promotion and marketing surrounding the "Two Giants."
Because the gap in honors between James and the current Yu Fei was too vast, comparing them was needless.
Even Nike stopped bundling Yu Fei's promotion with James's because no matter how grand they made the fanfare, the benefits would go to the victor.
2006 was Yu Fei's year.
He secured an average triple-double, snatched the championship, and his reputation soared, with only one blemish: he didn't play for the national team. Ironically, James's only chance at overturning public opinion with the national team play unexpectedly lost to Greece, leading fans to see Yu Fei as a savior.
They hoped Yu Fei would make American basketball great again.
