What's interesting about this form of criticism is that his ability to do any basketball task is judged not by the ability that the median NBA player has at that task but against the bar he's set in other areas. His jumpshot isn't as great as his rebounding, playmaking, dribbling, or defense, so he's lazy or lacks foresight? No matter how good you become, you will always have a "weakest" area to your craft. He clearly has made tremendous strides in shooting (did you see him play in high school?), and in fact, he is well above average when judged against a median NBA player, which is itself remarkable since he possesses the ability to score an efficient 25+ ppg without taking any jumpshots at all.
