    Hahaa on the news they just showed Paul Allen on the sidelines with a little white board drawing up plays with a serious face as he's watching the action. It was hilarious.

    You sure he wasn't drawing up some billion-dollar business move?

    I miss bearded Paul Allen. Made him seem more pacific northwest and personable.

    Why is it hilarious? You think Paul Allen isn't smart enough to draw up a basketball play?

    After seeing what Stotts came up with for the final play of the Laker game I would be drawing up plays too if I were Paul Allen.

    Nah, not really. If I were Paul Allen I would be picking out which Blazer dancer I was going to bang after the game.

    How is Paul, who owns the team, drawing up a play any more hilarious than fans posting on a message board about, say, trades they want to make?

    We can't have someone killed if the trade doesn't happen or the play isn't run.

    It isn't; but most message board trades are inherently hilarious.

    Was it phallic shaped? I have this thing where everything I draw has one.

    Interesting story. I was just now playing a game of NBA2K14. The last few minutes of the first half Stotts put Will Barton at PG and surprisingly did pretty well.

    He's got passable basketball knowledge. Now he thinks he's some sort of tactician inventing plays on the sidelines.

    Really, what was the most funny about it though was the serious face he was making while he was drawing it up, kinda like a 'yeah, I'm really onto something here' kinda look.

    This is what Nate told PA when he tried to give him plays.
