so this triangle thing is successful when you implement historic players :jbhmm:

I would think that's every offense right. Warriors with Steph, Poppovich with Duncan, Heat with Lebron James and Dwayne wade.

Reggie a lame so this one of the rare times I'll ride with the Knicks. The system is proven. Having Sasha vujabytch and college superstar flabmelo running it is the problem

I also think it's the way Phil wants to do it vs the Warriors style. The Warriors want to use the triangle scheme with open motion passes from the outside in. Curry and Thompson make life easier for Green and Bogut.

I think Phil wants to use it from inside out. Look at Bynum and Gasol. Personally I still think Phil version is just as good. I think the lakers won, what 6-7 years ago. Just has to get the personal.
bynum in his prime was a top 3 center
pau was a top 3 pf in his prime
and he had prime kobe
im sorry...but using those examples are piss poor
any kind of offense wouldve had that team contending for rings just off talent alone

Well Reggie isn't far off, There aren't too many players on the Knicks with the skill set to make the Triangle work, but there are some issue with how it's being run in NY imo. A lot of Knicks possessions take too much time off of the clock, just to end in a long two. The pace isn't being pushed enough either, but I'll admit that's kind of hard to do with Calderon there too. I mean the system succeeds at getting guys to move the ball ( I think the Knicks are near the top of the league when it comes to passes made, yet near the bottom in terms of assits:pachaha:) and creating a bunch of open mid range shots for the Knicks, but I'm sure most teams will live with the Knicks taking those. I think a change in offensive focus and a better coach would help some, but no one under Phil's coaching tree has become a good coach, and Phil doesn't believe in the 3 point shot,and other helpful shyt like advanced analytics. There are parts of the triangle that work, but I think you need to do what the Warriors have done and pull from other systems too, not just run the triangle straight up.
