Barack Obama Had The NBA's Biggest News And Refused To Leak It Before Woj

Credit to Barack Obama here. It’s not everyday you get news like Kawhi getting traded to the Raptors and not leak it. I wonder if he has experience in not releasing secret information. Not sure who this guy is, but I don’t know if he’s going to make it in the basketball reporting world. You have to beat Woj and Shams. You can’t be third. That’s how the reporting rules go.

I would have killed to be in the room with Masai Ujiri during this. Correction, I would have moved to Canada, let’s be honest. I’m not killing anyone. I want to know what the shouting was about. Who pissed who off? Do you think Ujiri lowballed the Spurs at first causing Buford to yell? Offered like Poeltl, VanVleet and Powell?

Also, how did Obama get the information? Did Ujiri just hit him up afterwards? That’s an incredibly awesome move if so. Like hey, I need to tell someone that we just pulled this trade off. Who do I call? My wife? No she doesn’t care about my work. One of my idiot friends? Nah, they heard enough stories from me they won’t believe it. Oh, I know. Barack Obama! He’ll care.

So Barack, work on your reporting skills. You need to beat Woj here. Imagine if we had to credit Obama for the news and not Woj. That’s a world I wouldn’t hate living in.
