Paul Millsap

Quietly efficient and well-respected by experts. That is Paul Millsap in basketball and thus that is what he is as a political leader.

President Millsap is a veteran, he knows how it is and has experience almost everything the political game has to offer. He does not hog the limelight or force himself into becoming a media presence, but he gets it done. Always. Millsap has no weaknesses. He is responsible, strong and balanced, and he makes everyone around him, i.e. his government, better. And it is all of that which makes him so well-respected by everyone. He’s loyal too.

The ultimate combination of a team guy and a leader, incapable of shirking his responsibilities as a leader and as a politician. His offensive and defensive strength makes President Millsap a well-balanced leader that is strong in every way, and does not lean too far to one side of any bias, be it party or on any contentious issue. And yet he does what he needs to in the clutch.

All of that is why President Paul Millsap is the member of the Atlanta Hawks who would make the best president, based on his traits and skills as a baller.

Now, I promise we’ll never talk about basketball in such a vague, ambiguous manner ever again.
