Brown asked, "Then what are we doing?"
Little O laughed, "We're just playing ball."
"Says the guy who didn't play a second tonight," Brown retorted sarcastically.
The locker room became noisy again.
George Karl observed everything.
Just when Yu Fei had taken all the blame on himself, Karl was puzzled. There were many ways to take responsibility, so why choose one that undermined his own authority?
Then, Karl understood.
There were too many empire lackeys in the locker room.
Yu Fei just needed to drop a word, and they would deconstruct it in their own ways.
As long as Yu Fei didn't seek retribution, everyone wouldn't be going home with their hearts in their throats.
Accepting defeat calmly was a lesson that had to be learned in professional sports, even if the defeated opponent was someone you never wanted to lose to.
So, was all this just an act?
Was Frye leading the team in his own way?
Could he foresee what would happen in the locker room after he left?
