Miami Heat Head Coach Erik Spoelstra got a call Friday from one of the team's most high profile fans.
President Barack Obama called Spoelstra to congratulate the team on its second consecutive NBA championship.
Obama praised the team's determination and commended LeBron James' for being named NBA Finals MVP.
He even invited the team to the White House once again, saying he looked forward to congratulating them in person.

And the Miami media--all of them--ignore these stories....but hey, a two minute shout out to a basketball team is treated like the Gift of the Ages.
Got bias?
Next time we have a Benghazi-like emergency, those who need Obama’s attention should call to report basketball results. He responds a whole lot quicker to sports scores than to Americans being murdered by his friends.
The thugocracy rules!
"Denny's. a championship tradition. #Grandslam," the 12-year NBA veteran tweeted Friday morning.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing that.
What is this “NBA” thing? (yawn)
How much did he get paid for that endorsement LOL.
wonder if he would have bothered to call the Celtics if this were 1984.
if obama had sons...
Too bad it wasn’t Tim Duncan celebrating instead at the restaurant. Nevertheless congrats to the Heat.
Who is shane battier?
It was sickening how the radio glorified these criminals.
Doesn’t the nba have the most criminals of all sports?
