Good morning are you a basketball fan?
gpt
Good morning. Not really though I do watch the sport when I have the time. Maybe I would make it a priority to watch more if players shot in the granny style. That would be funny! That's the best techniue to consistently score points on the line.
human
*raises eyebrows* When I was growing up that's the only way I could make a free throw. Did you know the supreme court has a basketball court on the top floor known as the highest court in the land?
gpt
Ha, me too. So that's the highest court, and the highest paid state employee is either a college football or basketball coach in 39 out of 50 states.
human
*smiles* That's probably because coaches work harder than state employees.
gpt
*takes a step forward* Haha, probably right. But I wonder if James Naismith, the inventor of basketball, was a highly paid coach. He is the only losing coach in the University of Kansas' history.
human
Probably not. Speaking of highly paid, some of these players make more on endorsements than their salary.

I bet Jordan got a pretty penny from Nike. Whe the Jordans were first introduced by the NBA and were banned, Jordan wore them anyway because Nike was willing to pay the fine.
human
I wonder what Jordans net worth is. I know he has made a bundle.
gpt
I don't know if I even want to know haha. Allen Iverson has an interesting Reebok contract. He gets $800000 a year till age 55 where he then gets a final payment of $32000000.
human
I could live off of the taxes on that. Did you know new zealands basketball team is nicknamed the tall blacks. I wonder how that would go over in the US.
gpt
Yeah probably not well! So do you like to watch basketball on TV?
human
Yeah, I watch some on TV. Mostly during the playoffs. How about you?
gpt
*takes a step back* I don't really. I like to watch cartoons like the Simpsons more. Bart is my favorite character. There is only one episode where he doesn't appear and is not mentioned.
human
That's strange. Do you remember seeing that episode?
gpt
*eyes widen* I don't. Or I didn't notice. When South Park aired its Family Guy episode they received flowers from The Simpsons Crew. I wonder why
human
Maybe they just thought it was a cute idea. There have been over 750 episodes of pokemon and I've never seen one.
gpt
*eyes widen* That is fifty a year for 16 years straight.
human
That's a long time. Is it a cartoon, or do you know?
gpt
Yeah I used to watch it when I was little. It is an anime type cartoon. I also used to watch Thomas the Tank when I was little.
human
*hands at sides* I've never heard of that one, I guess I may be a little bit older than you.
gpt
*laughs* I watched it in the 80s and it's still going strong I think. Ringo Starr, George Carlin and Alec Baldwin have all narrated for at least 52 episodes each. Speaking of which, my son is begging me to watch some TV right now. Maybe I'll turn that on for him. See you!
