Howard is getting away with murder. The arms always grabbing , the hands raking people faces , the elbows always swinging. Its dirty play and only one way to stop it if the refs won't. They call it a "hatchet man". Send in the big red head from the bench and tell him his job is to simply nail Howard. BY the third time , the refs smarten up and start calling fouls on Howard or he leaves the game with a broken nose.
Bill laimbeer was a classic case. he got out of control so the next game when he went up for a ball , Robert Parish squared off , planted his feet and simply punched him right in the face . 1 personal foul and one technical on Parish later, the refs put a stop to Laimbeers bull because they saw either they would stop it or someone was going to the hospital.
Howards crap is so obvious I don't see how anyone watching it objectively could say its other than dirty. I have a feeling the powers that be saw a 4 game slaughter and sweep by Boston which is not good for the TV revenue and told the refs to let Howard get physical. Fine, good old fashion Bball.........so send out the good old fashion "hatchet man"
