Kidd is still likely going to be the backup point guard for the Knicks, so it's not a given he'll get as much action with Chandler as you think he may get. If he's getting a lot of minutes, the Knicks are in big trouble and Kidd is liable to break down.

I'm guessing Chandler screens wouldn't have done much for Kidd because he didn't want to push towards the rim and he was pretty rough when he actually tried to finish at the rim. Defenders would know Kidd doesn't want to go to the rim so they could alter their coverage and still protect against Chandler.

Kidd's problems mainly fell in line with sporadic shooting, a natural drop in the ability to man up bigger guards for long periods of time, health and a highly unusual drop in basketball IQ.
