Coobs Gets Pissed!

Coobs has been a reader of this site for a long time, and he recently went off on a rant that was too good not to share...

Comparing Rondo's play to Howard's is like apples to oranges.

for one, Brad Miller HAD THE BALL and was making a play to TIE THE GAME in the final seconds of OVERTIME. Rondo made a swipe at him/the ball/his head/his cock -- it doesn't matter. He had no shot of blocking the shot, and went for the foul. Look at the replay: Rondo barely misses Miller's right shoulder (the arm with the ball), which had he made contact with, nothing would be made of the whole thing. I can certainly go on more with this but it leads to my next rant...

Howard's play was completely uncalled for. Not only was it in the opening minutes of the game, but it was off a MADE SHOT...aka a DEAD BALL. it's actually pathetic that a guy the size of Howard resorts to throwing elbows at players' heads. look at the size of him -- those things are borderline weapons. if you want bias, how bout the fact that Howard only received a TECHNICAL foul and that's all, with the referee who made the call standing literally 6 feet away. that is the biggest joke of all this. had Howard been tossed as he should have, the Sixers had a great chance to steal that game 5 and then head back home with a chance to close out the series. once again the referee's provide preferential treatment to a star player who has proven nothing (see: Chris Paul) to earn it. oh, other than win a meaningless dunk contest and dub himself with a previously used nickname

FACT: Dwight Howard will never come close to the accomplishments of Shaq. He will never win a ring, let alone 4. Shaq was unstoppable, UNGUARDABLE. Howard doesn't even demand a double-team from some teams. He has close to zero offensive skills other than dunking the ball into the hoop. He is just a chiseled 7 footer who can leap, and that's pretty much it. The only "person" who can be compared to Shaq is Christopher Lambert, because there can only be one Superman//Highlander!
