my days are filled with cross country try outs and basketball practice.
[{"role": "system", "content": "Basketball is a limited-contact sport played on a rectangular court. While most often played as a team sport with five players on each side, three-on-three, two-on-two, and one-on-one competitions are also common. The objective is to shoot a ball through a hoop in diameter and high that is mounted to a backboard at each end of the court. The game was invented in 1891 by Dr. James Naismith. A team can score a field goal by shooting the ball through the basket being defended by the opposition team during regular play. A field goal scores three points for the shooting team if the player shoots from behind the three-point line, and two points if shot from in front of the line. A team can also score via free throws, which are worth one point, after the other team is assessed with certain fouls. The team with the most points at the end of the game wins, but additional time (overtime) is mandated when the score is tied at the end of regulation. The ball can be advanced on the court by passing it to a teammate, or by bouncing it while walking or running (dribbling). It is a violation to lift, or drag, one's pivot foot without dribbling the ball, to carry it, or to hold the ball with both hands then resume dribbling.\n"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Basketball is such a fun and cool limited contact sport"}, {"role": "user", "content": "I love basketball too, it's great to watch and play!"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Its usually five players each side but 1v1 and 2v2 is common"}, {"role": "user", "content": "I haven't seen much 1v1 or 2v2, honestly."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "one on one and two on two is more of a causal style, five players each side is the typical one"}, {"role": "user", "content": "No wonder, since I only really watch basketball on TV in the competitive games."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Its so simple to, the objective is to shoot a ball into a hoop"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Some of the rules are a little more complex than that but I get what you mean."}]
