Why does Spike Lee name his film productions 'joints'?

Film Critic

http://www.uta.fi/FAST/US7/PAPS/lh-spike.html gives an author's note -'Joint' here refers to 'a piece of work'. It also might indicate that by watching Spike Lee's movies one can get 'high'. Not very conclusive I'm afraid. Jan 04 03, 12:00 PM
