With a single sentence, Wang Yi shut up everyone who had still been questioning him.
Any normal person would have thought it was just a showboating gesture. No one could possibly connect it to violence or murder.
So if any of you still make that connection, you're admitting that your own intelligence is below par.
Wang Yi's move was brilliant.
Even Adam Silver, who was watching the interview, couldn't help but admire him.

Xiao Hua knew the Rockets would definitely file a complaint with the league about Wang Yi's gesture after the game.
