In this game, while Wang Yi scored 60 points, Mouth Brother managed only 7.
Averaged with his previous game, that came out to exactly his average of 18 points.
After the game, one thing Wang Yi said during a courtside interview sparked outrage among Grizzlies fans.
The interviewer was Diana, the beautiful reporter from ESPN.
Diana was still dressed in an outfit that left little to the imagination.
In the NBA, it was perfectly normal for beautiful reporters to dress that way, but Diana's skirt seemed a little shorter than the other female reporters'.
Her neckline was a little lower, too.
During the interview, she even deliberately moved closer to Wang Yi, closer than she did when interviewing other stars.
Her questions were perfectly ordinary, nothing out of line, and Wang Yi could answer them easily.
They weren't the kind of questions that would spark heated discussion or controversy.
But when she asked her third question, Wang Yi's answer was quite surprising.
She asked him, "Wang, we saw that you'd already scored 60 points in the first half of the fourth quarter. Given how you were playing tonight, you had every chance to score 70. But then we saw you stop attacking and start passing the ball repeatedly, even passing up good chances to shoot yourself. In the end, you came out of the game to rest with five minutes still on the clock. Why didn't you go for 70 when you had the chance?"
Wang Yi shook his head and shrugged, then replied with a smile, "Because I'm not someone who likes padding his stats. Besides, I need to save enough energy to score 60 next game, so I had to hold back a little tonight."
His answer made the Chinese audience crack up.
"Brother Yi's answer, hahaha. Incredible."
