"guess who gets the rebound, I do, Of Course" - I love this guy

"Its not that difficult, its a TRIANGLE," Dennis being brutally honest 😂

People talk about Rodman rebounding abilities and defense but some forget his passing abilities in the triangle offense. He's an excellent passer.

*laughs* "Now, the guy guarding Michael decides he wants to come out and try to guard me..." Jim Jackson, leaving the greatest scorer of all time to close out on Dennis Rodman at the 3 point line. Triangles be hard sometimes.

This is the most coherent I’ve ever heard Dennis Rodman.

"...there go God, doin' his thing again" 😂😂😂 Allthough Rodman has a couple of screws loose in his head, he is a genuine and kind person. A straight up professional and mos def, the best rebounder the world will ever see. hats off to the Worm

Rodman was one of the greatest defensive players of all time. The fact he's able to explain all this....there are mere centimetres in this game that separates the best from the greatest.

The Triangle is a great system but only if you have a roster of players smart enough to get what Dennis is explaining at 0:15 in the video. I have seen so many teams try to run the Triangle and fail to do it because the guys on the roster didn't understand the simple concept that it doesn't matter who actually plays in the actual guard, forward and center roles. All that matters is that 3 of the 5 players on the court form a triangle with 1 player in the corner, 1 player on the wing and one player in the post _(preferably the low post)_ closest to those others in the wing and corner spots. The other 2 players are now to move to the opposite side which is known as the weak side with 1 at the top of the key and the other floating between the other wing and corner of the weak side. The Bulls and Lakers were great at hiding how they would bring the ball up the court to get into position; but once in position, it was is just a matter of running one of the 4 plays that you can execute out of the Triangle as this system only had 4. However each of the 4 plays has a counter attack option just in case whoever has the ball first at the start of the play is being double teamed. I have watched guys like Carmelo Anthony rip into the Triangle. The reason it failed so many of them is because way to many players were ball hogs that didn't want to play off the ball. The idea of moving into a position to get open to then get the ball on a pass back so you can score is just asking too much for such guys.

That triangle offense developed by Tex Winter won 11 championships between Chicago and LA for Phil Jackson. It truly was remarkably efficient and kept everything moving and not stagnant with guys just standing around the 3 point line like you see in today's game. Jordan was not a fan of it at first because he thought it would hamper his game but once he fully bought in it was over.

Dennis Rodman is a real student of the game I've seen behind the scenes of him just watching film constantly. It's what made him such a great defensive player.

I could listen to Dennis's explanations all day

Not many know but he has highest basketball IQ and figured his team doesn’t need a scorer so instead be a rebounder….. and mindfking their minds. Remember, he shut shaq down with 0 point… What a legend.

Would love to hear Rodman break down more film on basketball. All of his shenanigans aside, dude had a genius level ball IQ.

Rodman explains the triangle in a language that even 5 year olds can understand is gold 😂

I never understood the triangle offensive until Dennis broke it down. 😂😂😂😂😂😂

A few other teams tried running the triangle but there was only one Michael Jordan. Lakers ran it with similar success.

Greatest rebounder ever.❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥

Rodman got a very good triangle IQ 😉👍

Triangle offence underrated

say what you want about rodman, but that dude is a basketball genius

Rodman’s basketball IQ is so underrated. That and his ability to throw those long outlet passes. The first thing everyone thinks of when they think of Rodman on the court is amazing rebounding and ability to chase after loose balls, but his long passing skill was also a sight to behold.

You mean players didn't just stand still until he got the ball and someone else set up a screen? Mind blown!

Great to hear Rodman explain the triangle.

Dennis had a arm like peyton manning...

Dennis Rodmanon was a great rebounder and triangle artist.

It's not complicated at all. It's a very old offense, it goes back to the 50's. If most people knew what it was all about then they'd know it isn't all that special unless you have Jordan, Kobe and Shaq. Phil was a great coach but he had the best player in the league for 20 years straight.

Spelling offense.... That's the REAL challenge.

People can say all they want about Rodman, but he’s one of the most intelligent basketball players ever.

Where is this from? The narration and the video are so well put together

Outlet passing skill is underrated. Dennis was one of the most valuable players on the court for: defense, rebound, outlet pass court vision. Scoring actually is a more common skill set than the ones Dennis possesses. Absolutely one of the greatest defensive players of all time.

Pretty cool to see how much motion was involved in that offense. When I was younger, it just appeared to me at the time, they were just dumping into MJ in the low or high post and he would just do his thing

Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication

Perfect use of space

He doesn’t need to be modest. He is one of the greatest players of the game and in the Hall of Fame! Facts are Facts

I think anyone who’s ever played a game of basketball wants to handle the ball and score. Rodman’s brilliance was saying “I’ll do everything else,” and he was great at almost all of those things.

Made sense instantly. Say what you want about Dennis Rodman; he was a GREAT player and smart!

it was easier to execute back then, more players focused on fundamentals and actually respecting the coach.

That moment when you realize that unless they are in a straight line… there is technically always a triangle between any 3 players

Dennis Rodman is what I like about the sport of basketball.

I mean, technically you can draw a triangle between any 3 players on the court.

Crazy basketball knowledge from d rod. Greatest rebounder of all time and it's not even close.

Coaching my son’s basketball teams when he was a teenager in summer league we used to run the Chicago Triangle and the LA Triangle.. we won 3 ‘Ships out of the 5 times we went🏆🏆🏆

This like football in Europe, whether 4-4-2 , 5-3-2 or 4-3-3 systems are thinking in triangles, what you do without the ball is very, very important

this is the 90's era basketball the finest during that time. whenever you talk about MJ you talk about the team not the man alone and that's Chicago bulls

Translation: we played real basketball and not just shoot 3 pointers all game long …not a bulls fan but this is better than what I see in todays game

excellent passer and very intelligent player despite his demeaner and antics off court

Break it down Dennis!! Break it down

Triangle works in man to man, but a zone can easily kill the triangle.

Beautiful n simple play ❤ in this day drible drible step back lol

Rodman is the epitome of a player whose antics overshadowed just how damn great they were.

Honestly didn’t know Rodman had this much basketball I.Q. I have a lot more respect for him now. I always thought he just wanted to get rebounds and fight on the court without any foresight and knowledge of the game. I was wrong. Respect

Rodman saw it in his mind how players moved around to make triangles. The entire team did. Jordan made sure of it and ripped into players if they weren’t getting to positions.

kerr was so underated, he could of just hit that 3 instead of passing it

The triangle also stands for leadership style. Empower those below to make changes and lead.

The triangle is simple and basic af. But the thing I like about it is how continuous it is and how it’s basically positionless except for the player in the post most the time. The 2 man action on the backside of the triangle is what tricks the defense in my opinion.

Triangle offense is Phil Jackson's greatest troll.

Shit I was playing triangle offense in 7th grade back in '98 with my middle school team. Basketball today is just random isolation and freakish talent

Jokic got the rebound + outlet pass from Rodman

Rodman and MJ wernt friends they never ever spoke to each other or hungout, but during game time they were 1000% commited to winning!

You Dennis & Wes Unseld & Kevin Love best outlet passers

The Worm is a top notch player.

Coach Rodman😊

Dude knew wassup let them be drama he was trying to party and hoop

It's easy to forget how much basketball intelligence Rodman has. He certainly understands the game.

Triangle offense: first, you have to have Jordan or Kobe. Next, get a premium teammate in Pippen or Shaq. Get a few 3 point shooters and defenders/rebounders. Have Jordan/Kobe score a bunch of points and call it "triangle".

Would you consider the triangle to be outdated? I’ve heard its no longer effective in today’s game

“I do, of course.”

Dennis Rodman is a basketball savant, of course it took him only 15 minutes lol. One of the highest basketball IQs of all-time.

He has 5 rings and in the HOF for a reason.

Beginning to think triangle offense is some meme or a prank Bulls pulled on everybody. Every offense is a triangle offense in every sport cause, you see, 3 players form a triangle.

success come to: iba parin meron play at ma excecute ng tama ayun sa plano 💪👍👌

Wes "Mr Outlet Pass" Unseld..... 💪🏾

Ya so Dennis has a degree in Trigonometry. He literally has a degree based on triangular mathematics. "Its not that difficult, it's a triangle" says the rocket scientist to the fool.

Triangle offense is simple. It's even more simple if you have Michael fucking Jordan in the goddamn play.

Basically Dennis is saying he had the HOF Break Starter badge in NBA2k.

2:39 r.i.p captions

Carmelo Anthony: “I also learned the triangle offense. Iso, jab step or drive to the hoop”.

Nah I’m actually crying dude

He sounds like Richard Pryor doing mudbone lol 😆

Outlet pass greatest that i can remember...Rodman, Love, Joker, Walton, Bron. Who else yall got??

I'm pretty sure Dennis rodman can't remember what he had for breakfast this morning, let alone the offense from 30 years ago lol

Did he call Tony Kukoc Tony Kuclutch? Thats great 😂

Since Dennis’ job on offense was to stay as far from the ball as possible until it was shot, and then go get it, it was easy for Rodman to learn.

Dennis should try to coach an nba team. I think he can make it work

Triangle was originally invented to run your offense from the post/bigman in the key to get man movement and ball movement you can flip it and run it from the 3 point line with more spacing its still good offense u just cant run it everytime in this era

I feel like Rodman was the greatest outlet passer for his time. But eventually I'd say KLove surpassed that, and then Jokic cemented himself as the absolute best at this.

Jokic enters the court 1:28

Triangle Man! 😎

This form of play works for teams that stick to it. Not players who change the system to make them great! This is when everybody knows their role to play! And not to play all positions. Hihihi

Better insight than Kobe’s analysis…

Too many thought Rodman was JUST a clown… he was one of the smartest guys in basketball

The triangle offense was brilliant! It produced beautiful basketball. When you guys see the old heads playing at the gym, even though they don't know each other, the can run a motion offense based on the triangle.

Well, gee whiz folks. Three players at any three points on the court makes a triangle as long as they are not all aligned which would make a straight line. So everyone runs the triangle offense.

the Sakuragi of America hehe

Rodman: "there goes God" Michael Jordan proceeds to miss the shot Smh

Phil is underrated

Greatest guy to outlet the basketball was Bill Walton.! Go look at young B.W. grab a rebound and outlet it in midair before his feet even touch the ground. No disrespect but Rodman could have been even better. When he was young he did every thing, then he became just a defender and rebounder and weird dude.He was great at it, no lie.

Dennis barely touched the ball during offense. His only job is defense and rebounds. In which he did an excellent job.

Greatest rebounder OF ALL TIME. The WORM yall

Give the ball to mj. The end
