Barack Obama can give a political dissertation with the best of them, but exactly how does that speak to the effectiveness of his ability to orate in other walks of life? Forget what Obama can (or can’t) say about the sub-prime lending crisis, I think Americans really want to know what he feels about Chris Duhon’s on-the-ball defense (side note: it’s overrated).
Over the weekend, Obama apparently was balling with the Knicks’ newest $5.585 million dollar walking missed jump shot…errr….point guard Chris Duhon (2nd side note: It’s always great when the best thing your Hoops Hype bio says is that you’re a “floor general“. I’ve heard the same tag thrown out to describe legendary point guards like Mateen Cleaves, Khalid El-Amin, Miles Simon, and Saul Smith. What the hell did Duhon do to earn $5.585 million that those other guys didn’t, except play for the American Express poster boy down in Durham?). Anyhow, it appears Obama wasn’t just playing with Duhon, but running his mouth a bit. Can’t say I blame Barack, as long as his hoops game surpasses his pedestrian bowling skills.
And yes, it took me 14 months to write this post. With such a high caliber of writing, I’m sure you’re not surprised about that.
