I have little problem with PC on defense.  He's above average but not great.  Never know if he will hold onto a rebound when it hits his hands. Bol Bol made him look like a Freshman.

It's on the offensive side that bothers me.  Like you said, don't throw him a lob, although in one of the NCAA tournament games he had 2 lob-dunks in a row, if I remember correctly.   The main problem is you can't even pass him the ball since it's about a 50-50 bet whether or not he'll catch it.  He can't play the foul line against a 
zone defense.  He can't pull his defender away from the basket because he can't shoot.  So SU plays 4 on 5 on offense when he's in the game.  At least Sidibe can catch the ball and every now and then put on an offensive move to the hoop.

He may have a minor injury but his negatives are not impacted on offense by that.  He reminds me so much of Baye Moussa Keita.  But Keita was a backup who was not looked to for major minutes in most games.
