Thursday morning, the Golden State Warriors met with President Obama at the White House to celebrate their 2015 NBA title.

It was a brief meet-up, but President Obama brought the jokes.

"It is rare to be in the presence of guys from the greatest team in NBA history," he said. "So we're pretty lucky today because we've got one of those players in the house — Steve Kerr, from the 1995-96 Chicago Bulls."

(President Obama, you'll recall, is a Bulls fan.)

The President also saved some jabs for star Steph Curry, who he teasingly accused of "clowning" against the Wizards on Wednesday night. He also broke the sad news to Steph that, in his opinion, Klay Thompson has the "prettier" jump shot.

Presidential meet-and-greets are no novelty for Bay Area teams. The San Francisco Giants have gone three times in recent history.
