Obama texts Shane Battier

OK, not exactly…but sort of. President Obama’s body man, Reggie Love, texted Shane Battier, a star of the Houston Rockets and former teammate of Love’s at Duke, with a message from Obama after the Rockets game against the Los Angeles Lakers last weekend.

Battier told Fox’s Houston affiliate: “Through Reggie he sent me a message that said good job leading the guys in the face of adversity…It was pretty cool. Not your garden variety text message you get every day.”

I wonder what Coach K thinks about that?
