Hello there, do you follow the NBA at all?
gpt
Hi, how are you? Sometimes I follow the NBA. 
human
Nice, I am well, I follow pretty closely.  My favorite team actually has the best record right now. 
gpt
Which team is that? Is it GS? 
human
No, other side, the Milwaukee Bucks.  GS has been dominating the last few years though. 
gpt
Who is the big player on Milwaukee?
human
Giannis is their biggest and best player, I remember when we drafted him and people thought we wasted a pick. 
gpt
Where is he from? Is he American? I know that the league has gotten more international, which I think is great.
human
*leans forward* No, he is from Greece, they call him the 'greek freak'.  Did you ever own a pair of Air Jordan's?
gpt
No, I never did. I know that they were popular but quite expensive. The Greek Freak? Hm.
human
Yeah I guess they were banned by the league when they first came out.  And yeah the freak, he is a really good person though. 
gpt
*calm eyes* I know that MJ wore them despite the rules. Nike didn't care. Cheap publicity. 
human
Yeah it was cheap and the best marketing they probably ever had for a product. 
gpt
Controversy attracts attention. Suddenly everyone wants to have the bad boy sneakers. 
human
Yep, and if they ban them because they give players and advantage, well the YMCA is going to be filled with them. 
gpt
I never understood the obsession with shoes, but I guess they are an ubran fashion statement. Lebron has made his money on sneaker endorsements.
human
Yeah and it sounds like Reebok tried to do the same with Allen Iverson, but I dont think it worked out as well. 
gpt
How much moeny does Iverson have at this point? What will he do with it all? Start a shoe company?
human
I don't know how much he has anymore, but they owe him 32 million when he turns 55. 
gpt
I guess he could buy part of an NBA team at that point. That's a chunk of change. I wonder how LeBron has fared.
