"Let's see...the white middle class is overwhelmingly rooting for the Thunder, but Florida is a huge important swing state, so I can't come out against the Heat." What a coward. :smh:

Obama: No prediction on NBA championship
Here's one issue President Obama isn't taking a position on.

The NBA championship series.

Obama declined to make a prediction on the upcoming seven-game series between the Miami Heat and the Oklahoma City Thunder. Game one is tonight in Oklahoma City.

"You know, both teams look terrific and I am looking forward to a good series," Obama told KTVN-TV of Reno.

"Hopefully it will go to seven games," the president added. "But I can't make a prediction right now, they both look pretty tough."

Obama -- a huge basketball fan, as we noted earlier this week -- is no doubt still reeling from the early playoff exit of his Chicago Bulls (who suffered an injury to their star player, Derrick Rose).

On the other hand, Obama has expressed admiration for the Heat and Thunder and their star players, including LeBron James and Dwyane Wade of the Heat, and Kevin Durant of the Thunder.

It's notable that Obama passed up the chance to play a little sports politics.

Florida is much more of a swing state than Oklahoma, which leans Republican.

Is this the Leader y'all idolize? He is an indecisive fence sitting puppet,
ventriloquized by the "spirit of Python"...

“If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be
given to him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is
like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind.
For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded
man, unstable in all his ways
.”James 1:5-8

The Bulls aren't in the finals, he doesn't care. I respect that way more than a politician choosing a team he shouldn't be supporting (like someone from NY going to Boston and saying "oh man I hope the Celtics win")

it was a prediction, not who he wanted to win. but if he really wasnt sure then thats the only answer. anything else would be a random guess.
