If it were the other way around, i.e. Miller wacking Rondo on the head, the officials would have called that a fragrant automatically.
AGREE OR DISAGREE?

I think if Rondo was hit, landed, etc. in the same way then it would be the same. You can't really role reverse, because if you do and Miller is the one swinging at the same speed as Rondo there is going to be a heavier impact against a smaller guy, which in most cases will take rondo to the ground. You just really can't reverse the roles of these players in my opinion cause it would change impact power and all the above.
