How bad are things getting for the Miami Heat? They now have President Barack Obama opining on their mediocre opening to the season. In an interview with Barbara Walters from ABC, Obama insisted the Heat just need time to work the kinks out as LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh learn to adjust to play alongside one another.

The Heat came up short yet again on Wednesday night, losing to the Orlando Magic. The loss, the Heat’s third in a row, drops the team to 8-7 -- way below expectations.
