LeBron-Obama

“Mama, I made it,” those were the words LeBron James said during a visit to the White House with his teammates today in Washington, DC.

The Miami Heat along with their significant others, coaches and owners, visited President Obama in the East Room of the White House to commemorate their 2012 2012 NBA Championship.

“I am honored to welcome a little up-and-coming basketball team to the White House,” Obama joked. “This team traveled a long road to get to where they are.  In 2011, the Heat got all the way to the finals only to come up short.  But when you fall, the real test is whether you can ignore the naysayers, pick yourself up and come back stronger.  And that’s true in basketball, but it’s also true in life.  That’s exactly what these guys did,” he said.

LeBron James accepts his 2012 Sports Illustrated Sportsman of the Year award during a reception ceremony at Espace last night, Dec 5, in New York City. The NBA player was joined by his lovely fiancee Savannah Brinson and pals Beyonce and Jay-Z.

“What I would say to that kid is there are going to be a lot of ups and downs, and there are going to be a lot of expectations” said James, after accepting the 2012 Sports Illustrated Sportsman of the Year award at the magazine’s annual awards celebration. “There are going to be a lot of pitfalls, too. But it’s how you come back from those pitfalls and how you come back from those situations that will define you. You have obstacles you must go through. The easy thing for me to tell that 17-year-old kid would be to avoid it all. But that’s not the right thing to do. The experiences you go through in life make you a better person.” More >
