What you need to do is limiting his game to spot up shooter and penetrator once the defense has been moved around a little. No decision making, not directing anything. Just execute, and execute only these things. Wanna take those hero step back long twos? Better make at least one of your first two attempts. Otherwise next miss you are benched. Actually, making him the 6th man would be ideal, but at this moment that's not a possibility.

That's how it works with players who are not smart on the court. You have to manage them, not rely on them. You could give the reigns to Nash, and also to Dragic, but not Knight.
