Sasha Obama e Maisy Biden, two important stories and a true friendship. Born in 2009 when the families of both, as their surnames tell us, spent eight years in the White House, from 2009 to 2017, during the presidency of Barack Obama, Sasha’s father, period in which Joe Biden, Maisy’s uncle and current president of the United States, was American vice president.
Recalling the period in which Obama also took on the role of coach for the basketball team in which his daughter played, following the absence of the official coach, Obama retraced some moments lived together by both.
On the basketball court. “Maisy was like the LeBron of the championship»He told in the podcast Armchair Expert conducted by Dax Shepard. «He dominated. It was great and we were undefeated. The Vipers (name of the basketball team in which they both played, ed) ruled ».
That experience as a coach quickly ended for Barack Obama, due to the complaints of other parents who saw in his presence on the sidelines, in sportswear, something that could benefit the team he led. On the other hand, he was above all the president of the United States of America.
But the passion for basketball continues to accompany both families and the two friends who continue to be very close. As Obama says, «When the Vipers won by snatching a very difficult 18-16, Love and I (former basketball player, ed) we celebrated as if they were the finals of the world championship ».
During the episode Dax Shepard and Obama recalled the video that went viral during the 2020 election campaign. In the images the former president stood out as he made a three-point jump in front of the future president Biden and as he came out of the gym he shouted: “This is what I do”. An episode on which Obama returned to specify that Joe Biden actually agreed on that sketch because it was Maisy who passed him the ball to make the throw.
