I don't think I would call it universal.  I do think it's probably a symptom of what the PG position has looked like the past few years.

Even as you go back to Ennis you didn't see much creativity off the dribble. He managed the game well, incredibly well, but he played a very slow pace and that allowed him to limit mistakes - which was incredible to see from a Freshmen.

After that we've seen Joseph (almost zero aptitude/feel for the PG position), and G (out of position, but performing admirably considering the circumstances).  I think out of the starters the past two years, Richardson seems to have the best vision/creativity when it comes to passing.  He occasionally fires the ball at 183 MPH, but nevertheless, he does slip in some difficult passes.

I think the positive reaction to Howard has a lot to do with just seeing someone who is recognizing where the offense is going and then delivering the ball to people in a position to score - often doing it off the bounce with some tough passes.  I'm not sure anyone else on the team recently has shown that ability to anywhere near the extent he has in limited PT.
