Howard, gives people fits because of his athleticism and strength. Howard has no ability in the post yet but has to be doubled deep in the post. When the Magic were most successful is when he passes out of those double teams, as in Game 2 of the finals. Other guys can run pick and rolls. You don't tell a center who has yet to develop a post game to start shooting jumpers...would you tell Shaq that?
I also saw a Magic game against the Bulls where Noah looked like a kindergartner. I think its obvious that if Noah had a hard time with Perkins, Howard would have swallowed him without double teams. Having a Howard shoot free throws is better advice than having him spend the summer shooting jumpers, he has to develop a low post game. If Howard starts shooting jumpers but is not focusing on a post game, he will not be as effective. Look around the league, there are lots more big men with jumpers than post games, if jumpshooting big men were all you needed, why do the Bulls need Bosh or Amare? We have two jump shooting big men. Right now Howard has to develop a "go-to move" in the post and everything will open up from there.
