Obama wasn’t done. He dropped this gem riffing off interim coach Luke Walton not getting enough credit for his accomplishments.
“You defied the cynics, you accomplished big things, you racked up a great record and you don’t get enough credit ... I can’t imagine how that feels!”
Obama: Warriors' Luke Walton accomplished big things & doesn't get enough credit. "I can't imagine how that feels!" https://t.co/l0kgyYRIob

Nailed it.
