Obama on Making Time To Meet NBA Champs: ‘I Decided I Actually Wanted To Meet’ Spurs

“Welcome to the White House. Everybody please have a seat. In case you didn’t know, these are the NBA Champion San Antonio Spurs. (Cheering and Applause) I was considering having the vice president cover these remarks so I could stay fresh for the State of the Union. (Laughter) Taking an example of Pop who sits his stars sometimes, but I decided I actually wanted to meet them. So I know we’ve got a lot of Spurs fans in the house, including a guy I stole from San Antonio — our Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, former Mayor Julian Castro."
