Sport Science: Lakers Triangle Offense

[sittingonmyass]

hacks!

[zeroun92]

I always wanted to know what this is. People just say it never explain it. And I feel like Shaq is ignored in the Lakers first run smh.

[KidDestiny]

He Forgot to mention shaq with Mike and Kobe lmao

[MrKelzos]

Bless Text Winters for creating the triangle o.

[LAMEXAME]

TEX WINTER WAS THE REAL INNOVATOR OF THE TRIANGLE OFFENSE. NOT PHIL JACKSON!

[killer1177]

They forgot to add in a very important variable into that equation: Kobe Bryant.

The variable "Kobe Bryant" can break off from the triangle offense, and shoot at any spot on the floor he wishes, and by drawing double teams everytime he catches the ball, he opens up even more shot opportunities for other players.

Without kobe, we would have 340 shot opportunities, with kobe, times that by 100.

[humzakhans123]

phli jackson is the best couch because he couch michael jordan the best player in the world and he couch kobe now he best player in the world

[Ninoaguila08]

@humzakhans123 Well by that logic I guess Doug Collins is also the best "couch". He "couched" MJ during his early years and with the Wizards.

[humzakhans123]

the greatest play in nba by phil jackson

[TheBeastmonkey]

This just about says it Phil Jackson is the greatest coach of all time just as is Michael Jordan the greatest basketball player of all time if only they had more time together

[barkape]

damn this shit is mathematical and scientific as shit

[jkli001]

he's obviously using cheat codes.

[dudefreakingwoow]

That's fucking genious right there.

[1234qwerty1234ful]

damn! that triangle is better than school!!

[MrDontknowausername]

So mj was coached by Phil Jackson? I did not know tht

[Rifter09]

@MrDontknowausername then you dont know anything about mj

[kaikaichen]

@MrDontknowausername Haha, remember it - that's quite important.

[samiuddinahmed3]

It is a system. It can attack both fast and strong.

[kb24TM]

the question is fucking easy. its BOTH. u need the play AND the system. try that system on the bobcats, i bet it wont work.

[lyricsking000]

dont get it

[jtin2324]

i bet phil didn't even know all these facts

[greenmatrix151023387]

@jtin2324

well...maybe not all of them :)

[brodbenjo]

fuck mike brown! we want phil back!

[co659017]

my brain hurts..

[ibanezmanvicente8a]

340 shot opportunities and kobe takes 330 of them.

[Josephr945]

@ibanezmanvicente8a 340 shot oppertunities. kobe takes 335 of them. the rest has to share the rest of the seasons 5

[figgass]

i love triangle offense, but the lakers sucks with mike brown(scramble offense)

[lhudwig13]

I hate the way how camera moves

[KB24isClutcherThanMJ]

imagine the miami heat using triangle offense, i'd retire from basketball, with players like wad and james and Bosh thats like MJ's bull's triangle offense.

[123andtothe4Skin]

RIP

[xSeven7x]

1:48 hot chick wants some

[monitormonkey]

Got distracted by the ta-tas @ 1:45

[TheGoldenChi1d]

"when it works why is it so successful"

[jtavarez321]

@TheGoldenChi1d any offense is succesful when it works. smh espn

[CROUCHINGCARROT11]

it was shaq not kobe

[FlashyLifeTV]

01:44 LeBron can't do that...

[stevechen1991]

If you never knew wat Triangle offence was.you will think its an offence run just for superstars to take whatever shot whenever they want like MJ and Kobe haha

[latintantramaster]

Oh, so michael wasn´t that good...it has always been the triangle, but the other coaches don´t want to accept it.

[TheLucifer69]

@latintantramaster MJ won MVP before Triangle.

[latintantramaster]

@TheLucifer69 ha,ha,...I was trying to be ironic. I don´t like the triangle that much.

[TheLucifer69]

@latintantramaster Sorry i miss understood.

[kninez13]

1:48 so badass

[kninez13]

poor kobe...his b**ch wife finally left him> at least now he can get all the punani literally almost every single girl in los angeles and the rest of the world has been offering him for the last decade......first line of duty> go back to philippines and kiss that girl he ditched bcuz he was married.lol

[SDSOverfiend]

This a bullshit explanation.. Trying to make the triangle more sophisticated than what it really is. When you got a center its called "Spacing" Fuck outta here.

[BeastJeffrey]

@SDSOverfiend shut up darkey

[SDSOverfiend]

@BeastJeffrey Tell em' why you mad Son.

[Gruba1001]

phil jackson is a genius!

[iDance1707]

TRAINGLE? SHIT, ITS ILLUMINATI AGAIN...

[justkilledit21]

@iDance1707 LMFAO!

[wertyamatz22]

Jason Kapono is now a Laker.

[anuranjan87]

all i remembered is 15ft and triangle

[harvpila]

triangle offense work if you have 5 good players..

[Msskirby1]

Like Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant......... Shaq was just playing waterboy for that three peat was he?

John Brenkus hating on The Diesel

[superman1113215]

this won us 2 championships but i hope mike brown changes the offense cuz they dont have the right pieces anymore

[TheBlackopSpecialist]

Detroit Needs That Offense This Season...

[tazzenders]

this offence technic is really useful. my team was down by eleven points and coach decided to try this out. we won by 16.

[Xzero1]

@tazzenders Loool ok. Your team who has never practiced this; decides to try it in a game and apparently you gain a 16 point advantage when you were down 11? Sure thing bud.

[tazzenders]

@Xzero1 i didn't say "never."

[Xzero1]

@tazzenders If you practiced it, then why would your coach only decide to "try" it as a "last-resort" measure when you're down 11 points?

[tazzenders]

@Xzero1 we had two quarters left. if it didn't work, we'd have gone back to 2 - 2 - 1. fortunately it did, so we stuck to it.

[modernway91]

I hope Mike Brown is watching

[janniklaspotti]

yeah but phil made kobe and jordan what they are right now ;)

[BecomeB]

So they saying here that everyone would shoot in 0.22sec like kapono. And even kaponos normal shot isn't that fast.

[phonsomigs]

phil you cheater.

[Chr1sBrown]

too bad phil jackson coached teams doesn't run the triangle everytime they go down the floor, they have plays specifically made for kobe, gasol, or Jordan, Pippen, etc.

[JuneJay16]

Phils a cheater.... we know.

[DannyBmore58]

@JuneJay16  shut up bitch ass nigga

[EduSanjuan777]

is tex not phil´s system.Credit for KfC Jackson anyway

[jonnieos]

YOU MEAN HIS TEAM HAS FEATURED PLAYERS LIKE MICHAEL JORDAN AND SHAQUILLE ONEAL YOU DUMB BITCH.

[GamerAntman]

@jonnieos hating on kobe,i see?

[Bernardchui123]

it's not phil jacksons ==. It's Tex Winters.

[RawButtWin11]

Now the WHOLE NBA knows the Lakers technique. :P

[jacobeazy]

@RawButtWin11 i think you will find this is the most known offensive set in the NBA.. next would be plays to get ray allen open

[wornoutshoes11]

@RawButtWin11 even if u have the best technique if u dont do it the right way or u have players who are incompitent in performing such a task then it does not matter at all... teams in the nba knows what to do with the lakers anyways... just let kobe ballhog and take all the shots till he wears himself out...

[24kobelebron]

@wornoutshoes11 Man, I advice you to stick to football. You dont know any Basketball shit.

[BreakinAnklesBBall]

@RawButtWin11 They already did for over 10 years.

[PrettyboyStrollboy]

Awesome Video! The only one who hit dislike happens to be a fan of Floyd Mayweather Jr.

[highflyer1985]

The players change through time, but the system remains the same. With Chicago Bulls 91-93, 96-98 and the LA Lakers 00-02, 09-10 all had one thing in common, Phil Jackson and the Triangle Offense.

[chefdizzy1]

@highflyer1985 Other teams have used the triangle offense, but weren't very successful... so I'd say it's the players that make the difference, not so much the system. Jordan, Pippen, and O'Neal and Kobe... with a great supporting cast for both the Bulls and Lakers, how do you stop that? Not trying to take anything away from the triangle offense, it is a great weapon... but how effective would it be if your players were average players, and not superstars? ;-)

[highflyer1985]

@chefdizzy1 I still say it's the system, but for the sake of argument you do make a valid point. I t never hurts to have a few superstars when running the triangle offense

[chefdizzy1]

@highflyer1985 We both make valid points, and we basically agree 100%... being the fact that we are saying the same thing, more or less. As I said in my previous post, I am not taking anything away from the offense, it's a great weapon, when run properly... But superstars make the difference. Just always wondered how a team full of average players would do running this system. A team like Charlotte, for example...

[AwfulXXXNoob]

all hail tex winter

[TheRacistApricot]

hi

[kj94leee]

awesome!
