Hey there. What are your thoughts on Lebron going to the Lakers? I personally didn't like it. Lonzo Ball on the other hand wasn't surprised. 
gpt
Hi, it didn't bother me. The best player should be playing in the biggest markets. Plus he is a good guy too.
human
Yeah true. I mean who could turn down a 154 million 4 year contract?
gpt
He's always been smart with money. Reebok offered him a 10 million dollar sponsorship before he was even in the nba and he turned it down! Of course he did way better shortly there after.
human
True. The NBA is a huge market like you said. You mentioned Reebok, well they paid Iverson a huge sum for his deal.
gpt
*eyes widen* Yes, but his deal is spread out over many years. Paying him well into his 50s is interesting since I doubt he will be marketable then.
human
*takes a step forward* Yeah very true. Nike also got in on the action. The Jordan 1 shoes were initially banned by the NBA but he still wore them!
gpt
*raises eyebrows* So strange that they were banned, I guess the NBA was a lot more strict then. I hope they paid his fines.
human
Yeah you're right. Nike did pay his fines like you said. Tim Duncan passed up a lot of money by staying in college for 4 years!
gpt
That's good that they did. Not many players are ready to make the jump from high school straight to the nba since they don't have a real minor league system.
human
Yeah. Not everyone is a man child like Lebron. He was born in 1984 but seems old for his age. 
gpt
I like that he raises a lot of money for charity and values education. It's crazy that there were scalped tickets at his high school games.
human
*takes a step back* Yeah he is a good guy. He raised 6 million dollars for charity by televising the widely criticised "decision"
gpt
*body relaxes* Yeah I mean it was annoying and drawn out but hard to complain about it when that much money is given away because of it.
human
Yeah I agree. Can't believe he will be in the new space jam movie!
gpt
*eyes brighten* Yes! I'm so excited. The first one was so good. I hope Jordan has a role in it.
human
*raises eyebrows* Yeah me too he was golden and classic in the first. Reggie Miller was also a good player but his sister was even better!
gpt
*takes a step forward* Yes. Cheryl is pretty famous in her own right. 
human
*opens mouth slightly* Yes she must be. Breaking 8 national records by scoring 105 points!
gpt
*eyes widen* Just once I'd like to see someone shoot granny style since it's been proven to be the best way to shoot. No one is willing to try in a game though.
