The bigger problem is that he has mid or short range J around the key area and has limited ability to keep his dribble alive in the lane ala Nash/Paul or even a Conley. He also has a habit of crossing over back into the middle directly in front of where the big man who set the screen would be rolling.
He CAN be, but he often calls for the screen too far out, doesn't always use it right to scrub the defender and he often, and I mean often, waits WAY too long to even try to use the screen. And the habit you mentioned is also frustrating. I guess it's the inconsistency of his approach that irks, because now and again, we see him driving around the screen very effectively.
