Hey there, do you watch basketball much?  I admit, I'm not the biggest fan, TBH, but I do find some of the thing surrounding it rather fascinating.
gpt
I love basket ball. My favorite player is cheryl miller. She once scored 105 points in a game.
human
Oh, wow, she sounds pretty awesome!  Think I heard about that.. she did that in high school right?
gpt
Yeah, and on the same night her brothe reggie miller scored 40 points.
human
*eyes widen* Sounds like basketball talent runs in the family!  You know what I find nutty though is how much NBA players make from shoe endorsement!  Some of the deals are just amazing!
gpt
Yeah did you hear about alln Iversons shoe deal. 800000 a year and 2 million when he is 55. 
human
2 million?  I thought it was 32 million... But yeah, all for wearing athletic gear!  
gpt
My bad, I miss typed.  That is a lot of money though. So what do you think about shooting the ball granny style?
human
Well, I'm told it's actually the most effective way to score, but I can see why most of the athletics will NOT do it.  It would be kind of funny to see some of them trying it though!  Maybe they could do it for a charity event or something... hehe!
gpt
*laughs* Well you would think some of the guys who cant shoot at all would at least give it a try. 
human
Dunno if you could get into the NBA if you couldn't shoot.  hehe.  What do you think of what Tim Duncan did?  He stayed in college for four years instead going directly to the NBA...
gpt
I know shaq couldnt shoot a free throw hardly at all but he had a lot of other qualities that made up for it.
human
I didn't know that!  Well, my thought is that Tim did the right thing.  I mean, something can happen to your body at anytime, but if you have an education, you can always fall back on that.
gpt
*body relaxes* I dont know if it were me, I would have went to the NBA and the took classes to finish in the offseason.
human
*raises eyebrows* Yeah, I can see that point too.  Here's some irony for ya.. the guy who invented basketball, James Naismith, is the ONLY losing coach in Kansas's history.  
gpt
Thats pretty crazy if you think about it. Did you know that air jordans were banned in the nba but nike paid the fine so Michael wore them anyways.
human
Yeah, it's like I was saying earlier, those shoe companies got deep pockets!  But I did find something funny in that whole situation.  Jordan probably being all, "Go, ahead, fine me!"  Wonder how much the fine was?
gpt
I have no idea. I think it was just a way for the nba to get a pice of that massive shoe deal.
human
*raises eyebrows* Ah wouldn't surprise me.  Did you know Kareem Abdul-Jabbar used the dunk so much it was banned from college basketball for over a decade?  That's an incredibly long time!
gpt
*eyes brighten* I didnt watch basketball at that time, but think about how dominating you would have to be at something to get it banned from the game?
human
I can't even imagine!  Well, listen it was GREAT chatting with you!  You have a terrific day!
gpt
*leans slightly forward* You to. Have a good one. Bye.
