That screengrab above is from underachieving Net Travis Outlaw's page on endless resource Basketball-Reference.com. As you may know, B-R.com offers cheap ad space on each and every player page. In this case, Blazer fan Whit Perkins apparently thought prudent to spend some cash to let former Blazer Outlaw (or rather those who read Outlaw's page) know how much he appreciates the late-game services Outlaw provided while in Portland. If you click on Perkins' name, you'll be directed to this YouTube video of an overtime game winner from Outlaw, then the explanation (at 1:14) of said play, which Perkins thoughtfully (and phonetically) transcribed in his "advertisement."
I guess all I'm getting at here is that the world in 2011 is goofy.
I can't believe I've never thought to do that. Watch out, Donyell Marshall.
