Not sure I blame them. This story involves a former NBA coach, a relatively obscure message board, and clearly unethical practices. If I was a reporter I'd be all over this tbh. :lol

If ESPN gives us a Spurs Index I'll be happy with one requirement: Timvp is the chief writer.

From the Deadspin comments:


"SpurStalk.com? What the hell, those pills didnt work and I've got to live up to this name."

Mr.Nate
05-15-2012, 08:22 PM
The worst thing about this is not that ESPN employees people who would plagiarize so blatantly but that ESPN employees people who visit forums that allow giant signatures with animated gifs in them. My eyes are bleeding after following that link.

"To take freely available content and put it behind a paywall without any attribution isn't cool."

It is exactly this sentiment & way of thinking, along w/ insightful, well thought out commentary, that I love about Spurstalk.

Well done, LJ.

Is this really a suprise to any of the older Spurstalk members?

seriously.... We have all known this site gets checked out quite a bit by talking heads and players themselves even if they dont post. :wakeup

I vaguely remember something like this happening before... I think it was the Express News or something like that. Not talking about the shit they gave Spurstalk for posting their articles either.
