Do you enjoy basketball? The Washington Wizards are a pro team that is based in Washington, D.C.
I really like basketball, but I don't know much about the Wizards. I didn't realize they were in Washington DC, I always thought they were in Washington State.
Actually, they play their home games at the Capital One Arena which is located in Washington, D.C. in the Chinatown neighborhood. 
That's interesting. Do you know how long the team has been around?
The franchise itself was established as the Chicago Packers back in 1961 and then renamed to the Chicago Zephyrs the next year. This is before they relocated obviously.
Ahhh, okay. So Chicago must have gotten the Bulls after that. That's a coincidence, because I'm pretty sure Michael Jordan played for both the Bulls and the Wizards.
You are 100% correct! He played 15 seasons for both the Bulls and the Wizards! You do know your basketball!
Well, I know my Michael Jordan anyway! I'm going to Washington next year, so maybe I'll take in a game and visit Chinatown afterward.
Sounds like a plan to me! He was one of the most marketed athletes of his time and considered a major factor in the popularizing the NBA around the world. 
You're right about that - he's the main reason I got interested in basketball! Too bad I never got to see him play in real life. I guess there's always highlight reels on Youtube.
