The coach has to see he's shooting 50% on mid-range jumpers and tell him he has to square up and shoot the ball more often instead of clogging up the lane.. That too would have moved Hibbert out of his comfort zone on defense.
He had a very hard time handling the ball in the post season. He said his neck was fine but I question that. He couldn't hold onto rebounds, bobbled passes and the ball seemed to be exceptionally slippery in the paint for him. Maybe he puts that wrinkle into his game next year when he is healthy but I don't think that was there for him this post season.
What do you mean it wasn't there ?He didn't take the shot, he was constantly open for a foul line jumper in the series.
But because of the knicks not just allowing the open man to shoot whomever it is , he doesn't feel comfortable as a part of the team on offense in the area of shooting the ball.
This is just silly. When have you ever seen Tyson taking any significant number of jump shots in his entire career? It's never been part of his game.

Do your homework, Woody doesn't ask him to do that, but that doesn't mean he can't.
What if he did? Also, that number would probably come down. What is his career avg in that area? Quite frankly, there are so many centers who can do what Tyson do offensively and have the nerves to shoot Js.
I dont know about the "so many" part, but even if that were the case, those centers are not available, so thats that.
Chndler should be used in the offense though, which i think is the posters point.
If he can knock down jumpers and erform spin moves on a rare ocassion, it defies logic to think he wouldn't be somewhat consistent if done regularly.
