*opens mouth slightly* The NBA consists of 30 teams, one of which is in Canada.
gpt
oh yeah, which one ?
human
The Toronto Raptors, they became the only Canadian team in 2001 when the Grizzlies moved to Memphis.
gpt
how big of a event was it ?
human
Moving to Memphis? Probably huge. Did you know NBA players are the world's best paid athletes?
gpt
*opens mouth slightly* No, I didn't know that. Any idea why would that be ?
human
*eyes widen* Maybe cause they have the most games? It's only one of four major professional sports leagues in the US.
gpt
I always wondered why Soccer is not one of those sports...
human
Maybe if America took soccer as seriously as the rest of the world we would pay the soccer athletes more.
gpt
So I guess it's about the money :)
human
*raises eyebrows* It's always about the money. Allen Iverson is getting 800,000 a year from Reebok!
gpt
*takes a step forward* ...and who is he ? did he earn that money ?
human
NBA player, I guess earned by promoting Reebok merchandise. Seems like easy money.
gpt
I hope he appreciates that and maybe donates some of it to charity... 
human
Would be nice.  Speaking of money to blow, Nike used to pay the fine every game so Jordan could wear the Air Jordan sneakers.
gpt
Fine ? Why would there be a fine ?
human
Apparently there used to be a rule that sneakers had to be white or black.  Air Jordans were too colorful.
gpt
Now that's cool :) I've never heard about it. Was that rule changed ?
human
Yes, they are all colors now.
gpt
heh... they should return that "fine" money then ;)
