Being less important to the team than Yu Fei is understandable, but less than Roy?
What's Roy anyway? Just an ordinary All-Star who forced himself into the role of second core by leveraging Fei's prestige. His prospects and abilities simply can't compare to Durant's.

No matter who won, it was Reebok's victory, which was originally Nike's concept.
Just before the Empire Battle, Nike thought that no matter who lost or won, it would be Nike's victory, since three of the four major stars in the battle were representatives of Nike.
