I get the feeling that your negativity towards Bargnani has become personal.:)

I understand the frustration but ….

That ‘Is Andrea an All-star’ article was totally stolen from Caldeford anyway.

Umm, except stolen would insinuate he didn't explicitly state it was taken from there...

There’s an interesting post over at T.Jose Calderford. The author takes a look at the numbers and asks if Andrea Bargnani should be considered an all-star this year:

And then the article continues with the information attributed to that source…

Sorry, was using stolen in a more casual sense. Borrowed – better?

You infer that he is claiming it as his own information, which he isn’t, he is just sharing something he thought was interesting with his own readers…

Kind of exactly like what D-Stance is doing, spreading the word and promoting awareness…

Unless I sit and track every shot taken and rebound grabbed by Bargnani personally, I am “stealing / borrowing” someone else’s work so I guess I would have no right to mention it in conversation?

I guess we wouldn’t have much to talk about since most of our information is gathered second or third or tenth hand?
