Sorry Thunder, I have a totally different take on that article. It incensed me so much I made an account and posted this.
Where ever you came from seven years ago, do us all a favour and return post haste. I'm sure enough readers will chip in for the fare. At a minimum give away writing about being Australian. I doubt I've experienced more national cringe than I felt reading this excuse for journalism. You casual dismissal of Dellavedova and Lleyton Hewitt as little or no talent individuals is a disgrace. I don't think I've ever seen Delly (not Della) mouth off at an opponent without significant provocation. Every coach/team member ever interviewed cannot speak more highly of his respect for the game and for his opponents. I quote "with a few well-aimed elbows in last week’s Eastern Conference finals, Cleveland’s Matthew Dellavedova has turned himself from an obscure non-starting point guard into one of the most polarising basketball players in America", WOW, did you actually watch any of the games?, you're insulting the individual and embarrassing yourself. But congratulations, you have totally supported the agenda of sections of the US media in portraying Dellavedova as the stereotypical low talent Aussie thug sportsman and effectively belittled his achievements in the process. Seven years and you don't get it at all.
