I have been and continue to be very disappointed in his play this season (perhaps my expectations for him were too high) for a myriad of reasons, but I have to say that we don't do anything as a team to help him be successful. Every time he touches the ball he is 25 feet from the basket and is asked to beat his man one on one; inevitably he either tries to shoot over the defense or attempts to penetrate where the help defense causes problems for him. Why don't we run him off some screens around the elbow for some quick 15 footers or get him the ball in the post where one dribble gets him to the rim. I know we try to clear one side of the floor for him sometimes, and IMO that is when he has been most effective this season.
