President Obama & the Lake show

Today is the day!! The Lakers are going to the White House to meet our President. Before the actual ceremony, the Laker wives received a tour of the white house. A few of the following photos are courtesy of Jeanie Buss’s twitpics (see why I HEART Twitter)

There’s Khole in front of Clinton’s portrait (yeah I know… where’s Vanessa??)
UPDATE!! I found a picture of Vanessa
Now who can tell me who the designer is of her watch. I LOVE IT! 

Pau in front of Regan’s portrait

Magic made it out! (Of course he was coming to see President Obama but that’s not the point right! lol)

DFish! I could see a career in Politics in his future. I believe he’s still the President of the NBA Players Association

* Twitter Press highlights of the visit (In twitter formation of course)

@Mike_Bresnahan

Just called Phil Jackson the “Zen Master,” then the former Illinois senator zinged Magic for losing to the Bulls in the ’91 NBA Finals.

Presentation lasted about nine minutes. A few laughs, a lot of smiles. Artest wasn’t part of the ceremony. Wasn’t on the team last year.

President Obama just reminded Magic Johnson of Jordan’s famous “switching hands” layup during 1991 Finals!!

@LakersReporter
The players were extremely impressed with how much Obama knew about the team; he called each player and assistant coach by name.

Magic Johnson said that President Obama is the only person he has ever allowed to trash talk him, & called the experience amazing.

President Obama spoke specifically to Shannon Brown about winning the dunk contest.

**I thought the Trevor Ariza fans would enjoy his tweet:
@TA_Iam1 

When do I get to go to the white house? Lol

oh yes we must include my response to him via twitter: 
@StilettoJill 

When the Rockets win the title of course! Your check feels much better right! 🙂 RT @TA_Iam1 When do I get to go to the white house? Lol

* I’m including this next picture SOLELY for selfish reasons… how well do you guys know me now, what’s the reason??

* Oh yeah, being the vibrant couple that they are, Khole & LO also took time out Sunday night to hit up a club in DC. Loving Khole’s ensemble (the full view didn’t have Lamar in it soooo yeah)
