He doesn't get most of his points off his own creativity in the low-post.

I'll agree with that, but my question is, how often is he the focal point of the offense? I thought we've been very successful when we let him do his work in the paint. Most of his points come from a) Offensive Rebounds b) Foul shots c) Marbury or Crawford finding him open under the basket.

That was my point. He scores in the low post if other people create opportunities for him or if he gets a loose ball. He doesn't have low post moves that he can do if you just throw the ball to him and let him create his own points.

You're right the Knicks don't go to him down low often. But I'm sure there's a reason for that. They've obviously seen in practice what he can do down low and in games when they occasionally do go to him down low. They don't feel he's effective enough to be featured in the offense down low.
