I'd rather have Kidd bench him for building a brick house than his teammates begging him to shoot. Yes, Utah wants him to shoot every time, but the worst thing you can do is not exploit that and then let them play 5v4 against your offense. Not shooting hurts the rest of the team.
I don't disagree with most of what you're saying. Where we differ is that I don't consider missing shots as someone who is terrified or terrible. Clearly he isn't hitting his shot and has taken several (by his standards) but that can change at any moment - Maxi is a good example (who is 0.32 shots per minute) and just as wide open.
