• Tex Winter Triangle Offense

When I first started this blog, my hope was that anyone who wondered how the triangle worked could come to this blog and find a simple explanation. There was a slight problem though, I had no idea where to begin!

Should I start with the two passes, the reads of the offense, or its philosophies and principles? I tried to e the offense, but the explanations were empty (see: AmMo Moments). Despite my best efforts,I couldn't accurately write about the triangle without the use of its intimidating terminology. After clumsily writing about the and the I took an abrupt hiatus to rethink my approach. I returned with a renewed focus (no more AmMo Moments). I re-launched by starting with the heart of the triangle - the.

From that moment on, the one and only way to tackle the offense became obvious - take the offense and let the understanding accumulate over time. My original goal to simply explain the offense had failed, but I hope the fundamental nature of the offense is clearer than ever.Now that the NBA is devoid of a triangle team, I feel it's time for me to move on to my next project. With that said, I'd like to announce my new site. This 3 DVD set of a Tex Winter clinic is pricey but by far the most useful guide to the offense that I know of. Tex shows how to implement the offense from the ground up. He starts with the very basics: the 7 principles, proper passing technique, and proper footwork.

He then goes through the entire basics of the triangle: line of deployment, moment of truth, the two passes, solos, and some breakdown drills. The 3rd DVD comes with a hit or miss film package of the the old Jordan Bulls teams and Shaq/Frobe era Lakers running the triangle. The clips are great and the film package shows deeper levels of the triangle, but the audio dubbing is badly timed and becomes confusing. None the less, I highly recommend this DVD set. Last, but certainly not least, is original bible on the offense published in 1962 by the innovator of the triangle himself, Tex Winter. The triangle is described in painstaking detail along with diagrams for every option of the offense at that time.

Tex also writes about what he believes it takes to be a good coach complete with philosophical approaches, ideal practice schedules and advice for life in general. A lot has been added to the triangle since 1962, but a remarkable amount has remained exactly the same. As they say, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
