It’s not a secret, Barack Obama is a huge basketball fan. In addition to having developed a strong relationship with Stephen Curry in recent years, the former president of the United States has come to believe that he is the greatest shooter of all time.
There is not even a doubt, absolutely. I’ve never seen anyone else who could shoot like that, in so many different ways, but also in so many unusual ways with so much regularity as Stephen Curry. I know him well. Everything he does is crisp, clear and precise. ” Barack Obama
For Obama, the leaders of the NBA today are all close to certain superheroes.
These world-class athletes are like X-Men. When you see LeBron James, you could tell he’s like the Hulk. Next to it we have Stephen Curry who could be like this superhero who takes off his glasses and who has this power with his eyes. You don’t notice immediately when you see him, but he’s a freak. ” Barack Obama
And speaking of freak, the former president is particularly expecting a lot from Giannis Antetokounmpo for the coming season.
I want to see Giannis shoot halfway this year. Everyone is worried about his 3-point shot. Me, I think he should rather develop a shoot at 4 or 5 meters. That’s what’s important.” Barack Obama
In terms of analytics, this is not necessarily what is recommended in modern basketball. But why not ? This could surprise the defenses, especially in the playoffs. Always interesting in any case to hear such a personality talking about the NBA.
