Phil Jackson agrees to meeting with Paul Allen.

It seems that the Lakers, Cavs, and Knicks now have some competition in the Phil Jackson lottery. Everyone knows how much Phil loves the Northwest and what better way to lure him to Portland than to take him fishing? PJ has agreed to join PA on a fishing trip that will no doubt force Phil to see that his Zen nature would be much better served here than in the noise and clutter of New York or LA. In a stroke of genius, Paul Allen decided to spare Phil the constraints of suits and ties and stuffy offices and take the man where he longs to be.
The trip is planned for late April which should be a peek time to catch the biggest finest salmon there are. Be the fish Phil, be the fish. OK OK I fess up, April Fools!
