I actually have to disagree with you... OJ can excel in the pick and roll. And with Mavs bigs and in special Dirk he will be a great weapon. Hollins tried to make OJ a catch and shooting guard and a guard that get open with screens a la Rip Hamilton. OJ is more of that drible shooter that you suggest. He need the ball in his hands to operate better. He shoot better this way and he also can dish open perimeter guys or the big man of the pick and roll.
