When the news about the NBA having a hotline inside the Orlando bubble came out, people started cracking jokes on Chris Paul.

The Oklahoma City Thunder star has, over his career, involved himself into discussions with referees for the smallest of breaches from the opponents. It didnt take long for the netizens to joke about Paul using the hotline.

Ina recent appearance on The Steam Room with TNTs Ernie Johnson, Paul talked about the all the jokes around him and the hotline. He said he wasnt aware of the jokes until his wife showed him.

I didnt know, to tell you the truth. I didnt know till my wife said something to me about it, Paul said. My wife cracked a joke about it. But I mean, it is what it is. I cant control that.

I didnt see all of them, he went on. My wife sent me something about it. But I dont even know.

Oklahoma have had a good regular season in spite of losing their star man Russell Westbrook last summer. Prior to the leagues suspension, they were fifth in a tight Western Conference with 40 wins in 64 games.
