You ever play any basketball?  You know - the game where you shoot a ball through a hoop?
Yes! I used to play but in 5th grade I kept having asthma attacks so I had to retire.
Man, that's rough.  I like it because it is a limited contact sport.  
That's a good point.  Do you play basketball on a team?
I do.  I play with five players on each side.  Sometimes if we don't have enough people we will do a 3 on 3 or a 2 on 2 or sometimes even a 1 on 1
I like playing HORSE. I typically lose because I am not very good.
It does take practice.  But it's been around for a long time.  It was invented in 1891 by a doctor names James Naismith.  That means it's had forever to be perfected.
Do you watch the NBA? I don't. They are too money-hungry. I like college basketball.
