On TV, O'Neal kept speaking.
"I often find myself wondering: what kind of stupid, damn country is this?"
"According to the 2021 Report on Bullying Against Asian Americans, 80% of Asians have been bullied online or in person because of their skin color. Judging people by their appearance is an animal instinct. And yet in this country, which claims to be civilized and to stand for freedom and democracy, nearly 70 or 80 percent of people act solely on animal instinct?"
"This is an absolute joke!"
O'Neal's comments on the show didn't make these people reflect on their behavior. Instead, they provoked an online pile-on.
"That shark has gone dark. China bought him off."
"He's China's lapdog, a Chinese spy."
"I don't understand why such a great player would insist on speaking up for that Chinese guy. He's ruining his own future."
Meanwhile, James also expressed his support for Wang Yi online.
Normally, he was a very shrewd person who wouldn't get involved in something like this on his own initiative. But this time, he spoke up of his own accord.
"You weren't on the court. You don't know what Arthur said to Wang, so you have no right to criticize him."
Of course, as soon as he posted that tweet, a flood of haters poured into the comments.
Like a raging tide of zombies.
As if they meant to tear James apart and devour him.
But James wasn't bothered.
Although he was a shrewd man, sometimes he still shared his opinions.
Those opinions reflected what he truly thought.
Besides, he had previously asked Wang Yi to look after Bronny on the court.
So what he was doing now was, in fact, also to ensure Wang Yi looked after Bronny.
Wang Yi called James and O'Neal to thank them.
