Basketball fans: Former Obama adviser Dan Pfeiffer compares Hillary to Scottie Pippen (HILLARY GRP)

[DeepModem Mom]

Dan Pfeiffer, a former senior adviser to President Obama, compared Hillary Clinton to former Chicago Bulls star Scottie Pippen, saying President's Obama and Bill Clinton were more like Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson.

“She isn’t as natural a politician as Barack Obama or Bill Clinton, but that’s like saying Scottie Pippen isn’t as talented as Michael Jordan or Magic Johnson,” Pfeiffer told The Washington Post.

“She is as good or better than just about everyone in the current GOP field,” Pfeiffer added.

Pippen, a six-time NBA champion with the Chicago Bulls and Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame inductee, is often portrayed as the sidekick to teammate Michael Jordan.

2. I wasn't always a big basketball fan...

but then we became a Duke family. (Disappointing that Coach K is a Republican!) Then I had family living in L.A. and loved watching Kobe and the Lakers in their heyday. Now I watch a lot of NBA games. BBall is a fast, exciting game.

I like the Celtics: most Vermonters are Celtic fans!
