The only comparison between the two is that they were coaches. You're inventing a straw man's argument that Kobimel never made.
They are 2 of the 30 people (out of 6 billion or so) who coach an NBA team. Are their situations not comparable? Kobimel is saying that, of those 30 people, Mike Dunleavy is the one who's situation is the furthest from Frank's, and yet even he has to do something similar to Frank. The situations of the other 28 are even closer, and that helps him with his point. Which is by now thoroughly obfuscated. Which is what you wanted?
