I think they do a solid job of screening. You're just looking for the wrong thing. Most of the time they (especially AD) aren't looking to set a hard screen to stop the defender. They're just trying to reroute the defender to make him go around.

That extra second it takes to hit the defender on a screen means AD gets into his roll a second later, throwing off the timing off everything. Asik isn't a threat as a roll man, so that extra second doesn't cost him as much.

Screens don't need to be bone-jarring; they need to be effective. Which they are most of the time for us.
