Barack Obama heartbroken over NBA lockout

At a fundraiser in Orlando last night, President Barack Obama expressed frustration that the Basketball season has been delayed.

Here’s what he had to say, according to the White House pool report:

THE PRESIDENT:  I love you back.  (Applause.)  I do.  Although I have to say that backstage I had the chance to see Dwight Howard — (applause) — and Dwight is a great friend, and I told him I’m a little heartbroken that the NBA season is getting delayed here.  (Laughter.)  So I’m hoping those guys are back on the court soon.  In the meantime, I’m here because I need all of your help.  I need your help.  (Applause.)
