Triangle offense does not suit role players?

kevin_405 · Post #1 » by **kevin_405** » Mon Feb 9, 2009 3:29 pm

Our Ex Space Cadet Vlad after the trade just passed a statement Triangle offense is not for role players.. Does it sound like if i fail it is because of everyone else..

That is so untrue, to the contrary Triangle offense actually fits the role players by sharing the ball..

Look where Janero Fargo, Devon George, Turiaf or Lue are today.. Considering that a poor Shooter like Luke is a starter I would say that it actually makes players better especially if they do the intangibles well. It also reduces the need of a great passer from the offense by trying to create matchup by ball rotation..

Valdi u are going to be in Browns dog house soon.. with ur bad defense and its influence on ur offensive game..

They are gonna love Radman in Charlotte. Brown for Radman is not bad at all.
Charlotte fans the few that there are will be thankful for his 9-14 points that he will give.
Compared to Ammo Radman is Bruce Bowen on D and the one thing Ammo was sopposed to be good at, scoring Radman is way better at.

Luke is essentially this offense's PG when he's on the floor. What other offense can feature Luke Walton as its PG?

Sasha/Ariza/Walton/Smush/Slava/Madsen/Fisher would all tell you otherwise.

Ron Harper, Luc Longley, Bill Wennington, BJ Armstrong, Steve Kerr, Dennis Rodman :lol:

I mean, what the hell is wrong with this guy, was he even serious?? the fact that people have not forgotten about these names to this day just PROVES VladRad's assessment wrong, now i'm really glad he's gone, an air head at playing basketball and now an airhead at doing interviews

No...lying about snowboarding accidents, showing up to shootarounds extremely late, and bonehead defensive lapses (combined with streak shooting) are detrimental to role players. I like Vladi, but come on now!

Good luck to you Vlad....now you can be a "role player on a sub par team". Maybe you'll get more minutes over there. Good luck with that.

Not that we didn't know this already, but it was all about playing time and shots for him. He just doesn't get it.

Triangle offense does not suit dumb players?

Isnt it funny that it's working well for other players, but not Vlad???
I think if he would've payed attention to Phil and did actually show up to practice on time, it would've worked well for him as well as it has worked for other players on this team, but I think this was expected, a typical response by Vlad, blaming everyone else except himself.

I agree with everyone in this thread.

Wow, as much as I like you Vlad, you are an idiot, lol.

I wouldn't take anything Vlad says to seriously, sounds like sour grapes to me. Seems like the role players that have played in that offense has made a lot of money once they got out of it. Vlad is dead wrong.

You know whats really going to burn him up, if and when this team makes it to the finals and hopefully wins a chip. He will really regret that day that he didnt take the time to improve his game, and establish himself as a solid starter and a decend contributor on this team to be a part of that title.
Instead he was traded for two half ass players that probably would never see any P.T close to what he saw, and yet they won a chip.

I had such high hopes for Radmanovic after this display...
