WASHINGTON, Feb. 15 (UPI) -- Miami Heat star LeBron James "has a chance" to be as good as anyone who ever played the game, U.S. President Barack Obama said in a taped TV interview.
Obama -- speaking with TNT basketball analyst Charles Barkley -- said he is "a Chicago guy" with a soft spot for former Bulls' star Michael Jordan, but gave King James a hearty endorsement as well.
