},
{
"from": "human",
"value": "Of course, he used to do the hook shot, right? "
},
{
"from": "gpt",
"value": "Yes! He should have had a patent on that! He also was known for dunking the ball in his college days and he used it so much that the dunk was banned in college basketball for over a decade."
},
{
"from": "human",
"value": "Yeah, I know. That was a stupid rule, that wouldn't last long nowadays. "
},
{
"from": "gpt",

},
{
"from": "human",
"value": "Yeah, do they not do that anymore? Why not? "
},
{
"from": "gpt",
"value": "*laughs* They still dunk. They just changed the rims so they breakaway when they dunk to prevent it from shattering the backboard. The US Supreme court building has a basketball court on the top floor known as the \"highest court in the land\". I need one of those where I work to shoot some hoops. lol"
},
{
"from": "human",

},
{
"from": "gpt",

},
