human
good for her. do you know allen iverson?
gpt
I heard he got a good contract with Reebok!
human
Yeah he is making a lot of money off of it, $800 000 every year
gpt
Nice, and when he turns 55 he will get a lump sum of $32,000,000.
human
yeah that is insane. many of them make money this way
gpt
*takes a step forward* Yeah, and some basketball players make a lot of money off of merchandise, like Jordan with Air Jordans. These were actually banned when introduced to the nba. But Jordan wore them anyway and paid a fine for each game.
human
*eyes widen* Yeah, well nike must have made much more from the sales to be able to pay the fines everytime
gpt
*smiles* I agree. Some nba players aren't as talented or lucky though. I think it was smart of Tim Duncan of the Spurs to stay in college for four more years instead of going directly to the NBA
human
yeah good for him, he got a degree and still managed to make a great career in the nba
gpt
Yeah. Lebron James was also forward thinking. He rejected a ten million dollar offer from Reebok because he thought he could do better. ANd he was right. A year later, he got a 90 million dollar offer from Nike
human
*lips slightly parted* yeah he must have always known his self-worth
gpt
He also raises money for charity though. He raised six million dollars by televising "the decision"
human
such an amazing guy. and he is the only person to make more than judge judy
gpt
Have you heard of Kevin Love? He supposedly has an illness and his teammates do not support him. It's tough being a basketball player. I feel bad if his illness is legitimate, but not sure.
