The Democratic Party might have just found the perfect ticket to run against Donald Trump in 2020.
This weekend, two of the NBA's most successful coaches posterized Trump with their words. First up was San Antonio Spurs coaching legend Gregg Popovich.

He added that "there's a difference between respecting the office of the presidency and who occupies it. And that respect has to be earned. But it's hard to be respectful of someone when we all have kids, and we're watching him be misogynistic and xenophobic and racist and make fun of handicapped people."
Then, on Sunday morning, Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr made this joke about his playing career in Orlando.

Yep, that's Kerr making a dig at Trump's press secretary Sean Spicer, who was pilloried on Twitter for lying during his last press conference.
So, you've got the stern firebrand in Pop, who has won five NBA championships as a coach -- just the kind of winning pedigree and temperament you'd want in a president. And you have the laid-back humor of Kerr, who could totally play the Biden role.
Plenty of people on Twitter liked the sound of that presidential ticket.

These guys know how to win, perform under pressure, and play defense, which would be useful if North Korea or LeBron James threatens our territory. Chances are they could attract some pretty high-profile donors as well.
