Dennis Schroder

President Schroder is a great influence. He is a likeable personality to lead the country and he is willing to share responsibilities or to take on the mantel himself when necessary. As president, Dennis gets things done quickly and his potential could lead his nation into heights the likes of which they have never seen before.

And he is quick to stand up for himself when he feels that he has been wronged, especially by his political rival, Isaiah Thomas.

The fact that Schroder is German is something of an issue, I’ll grant you. Actually, it makes him totally unable to be president and even in this world where NBA players are presidents, rules are rules.

Thabo Sefolosha

Efficiency and grind. That is President Sefolosha’s motto. Perhaps no player on the Hawks has such an intricate understanding of political injustice.

When he is working, though, he is all about the grind. He works hard and does some of the things that no one else wants to do. No matter the opposition, President Sefolosha is the guy his party wants to hound them, stifle them and beat them, either by stealing popularity or forcing his opponent to misfire. Being Swiss does not help his case, though. In fact, it puts him out of the running.
