    As someone who used to have press credentials, I'm not 100% sure about the permissions/ethics of snapping photos in the family area under the Moda Center. You need a specific type of credential to take photos in the first place, and I was under the impression that those were only sanctioned in certain areas of the arena. So who's to say that the photographer had permission to take this photo in the first place? Who's to say that Dame gave him permission to post the photo?

    Correct. More evidence of Canzano's Assclownery.

    Good point about the first thing. As for the second, Dame's Twitter account had ample opportunity to say he gave initial permission but instead retweeted posts from people saying he didn't have to do shot because it's a pic on the Internet.

    My un-official take:

    1.) Twitter is public domain, if you leave your phone number on the bathroom wall, don't be surprised when random people call you.

    2.) If somebody takes a picture of you, you should be able to do whatever the f you want with it.

    Quick question, did this Eric Ringworm person get Dame and Kobe to sign a release to use their pictures?

    Reasonable if not in line with the laws.

    He was within a private building in a secure area. That's most likely not true.

    Yup. Whether he had the right kind of credentials and whether those credentials grant permission to take photos in the family area.

    This made me laugh a lot louder than it probably should have.
