This has nothing to do with Vince and everything to do with Dwight Howard's possesions in the block. He's not decisive enough and doesn't work for his high percentage shots. He falls away from the basket all to often. And most importantly, he isn't drawing a true double-team. He has to pull a double-team, because without it, that offense is shot.

Lewis isn't worked into the offense enough in this series, Van Gundy admitted that in the Press Conference. I would assume Howard's play is part of that reason.

Here is the clear difference: Go back and watch Shaq play, while he is consistent, you don't always know what he is going to do (pass, drop-step, hook) or how long he will take to do it (if the double comes fast, he may drop-step fast, or he may survey his cutters and 3-point shooters). With Howard, you know what's coming. I think Howard needs a better specialty coach.
