弗莱：“我们难道不说一下，我为什么觉得他会这么做吗？我没问过他。我觉得他这么做是因为斯蒂芬-A-史密斯讨厌Pat McAfee。所以詹姆斯就是在恶心他。”
杰弗森：“无论他选择何处发声，都是为那个平台扩大影响力的机会，这是公认的。以我们对他的了解，他的每个举动都经过深思熟虑。所以他把这个看得比其他任何事都重要，我们了解他。”
“只要有人开始对他指手画脚，告诉他该做什么、应该怎么做，他都会反其道而行之。无论你是爱他还是恨他，支持他还是反对他——人们无权替他做决定，毕竟所谓‘正确选择’因人而异。他有想要传递的信息...如果他选择在某个特定平台上传递特定信息，哪怕是出于小心眼，这也高于一切。这种较劲高于一切。这是运动员们应该尊重的一点。”
附英文原文：
Richard Jefferson: "Anywhere he goes would have been an opportunity to elevate that platform. That's agreed. We know it... He was most likely calculated in what he was doing. So he put that over anything else. We know him."
"The minute people start telling him what they expect him to do and what he should do, he gonna do the opposite. Love him, hate him, support him, or don't support him - whatever your opinions of him are, people don't get to choose what he should do because it was XYZ."
"He had a message he wanted to send... If he was choosing to send a certain message on a certain platform and to be petty, that supercedes everything else. The beef supercedes everything else. That's something that athletes should respect. "
