The Cleveland Cavaliers big win last Sunday over the heavily-favored Golden State Warriors resulted in one of the most passionate post-game celebrations seen in years. This prompted President Barack Obama to tell Cavs coach Tyronn Lue to instruct his players to keep their shirts on.
The Cavaliers celebrated in epic fashion, and images of a shirtless J.R. Smith pouring champagne in a nightclub caused a bit of a stir after his emotional post-game conference. However, the shirtless shenanigans continued with Kyrie Irving, Mo Williams and others stripping off their tops during the Cavaliers’ parade in Cleveland this week.
ESPN’s Rachel Nichols posted a video Thursday night featuring Coach Lue speaking with President Obama on speakerphone, who ribbed the Cavaliers about going shirtless essentially all week long. Lue had a good laugh at the president’s quip and promised to get his players back in line, but conceded that the guys are in good enough shape to pull it off.
Check out the video of the call in the clip below and congrats again to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
