Barack Obama on Real Sports [video]

Being a huge basketball fan myself, I've written previously about how important basketball is to Obama's life. Obama has spoken out on the subject and how basketball influenced his early years in Hawaii, as well as his time leading up to meeting and marrying his wife. Real Sports interviewed Obama recently on how basketball influenced him, and tagged along with him to watch him on the court.

His stat line: 5 Assists, 4 points, 3 Rebounds, 2 TOs, 1 steal, 1 block

Enjoy. It was a great interview, and Obama was pretty decent on the court as well. He should definitely focus on his basketball, especially in basketball-crazed Indiana.
