Ab doesn't shy away from the contact.. they just don't call it when he gets into the lane.. and it makes him look silly.. really silly.. Then when he doesn't get the call he gets angry and starts to draw more contact which makes him look even sillier when the refs laugh at him..
I just think he really lacks the IQ to succeed. He's really trigger happy. I would see a wide open Kmart at the 3 and I would be screaming PASS IT TO KEVIN! But no, either a dumb drive or a quick pop of 3. I'd rather an open K mart do it than a covered Brook(store).
After reading the OP, I immediately searched for a post from you that usually contains facts and data. You have me spoiled.
I believe exaggerating the contact in a realistic way is something some players are missing offensively. I'm sure brooks will learn from kevin martin soon enough.
