Back in November, Mario Chalmers told our Holly MacKenzie that he’s fine with and even happy that his teammates constantly shout at him on the court, a phenomenon that’s spurred one of the greatest Tumblr pages of all time.

Even Barack Obama is making fun of Mario Chalmers
It’s one thing for Twitter to make fun of this phenomenon. It’s another when Chalmers is getting shade from the most powerful person in this country. If Obama played in the NBA, we imagine it’d look something like this:

BONUS: See pictures of Heat players getting mad at Chalmers.
