  Triangle offense - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Triangle offense, also known as the Triple-Post offense, is an offensive strategy in basketball.
The triangle offense differs from other offensive philosophies in basketball in that the offensive players are much more spread out than normal.
There are many options designed within the offense for the purpose of getting the ball to the center, who is positioned in the low post.

There is an understanding that offense is a series of two- and three-man plays and that all five players cannot compete for the ball but, rather, share it.
As you can see, this offense is based on good spacing of your offensive players on the court, the intelligence to "read" how the defenders are playing and, then, executing the fundamentals to make the correct play.

 Welcome to cybersportsUSA.com
As a defensive specialists over the many years of coaching, we have found that the most difficult teams to defend were the ones with offenses that pushed the ball into the front court, hash mark areas in the time span of 2 to 3 seconds.
Most early offenses depend on quick, wide lane releases, inbound pass, and pass advance to reach the offensive operating areas before all of the defenders can retreat into the front court area.
After early offense gets the 2 to 3 second push into the offensive operating area, it is equally as important that when the initial transition passing lanes and dribble penetration is denied the offensive team quickly moves into set offensive flow scenarios before the defense is able to apply any structured, modes of attack.

A cognate lesser included offense is one which shares some common elements of the greater offense, and is of the same class or category, but has some additional elements not found in the greater offense.
To merit an instruction on a cognate lesser included offense, the greater offense and the lesser offense must have an inherent relationship, and the evidence must be able to support a conviction of the lesser offense.
The purpose of the restrictions upon which lesser included offenses may be submitted to the jury is to prevent the jury from usurping the punishment function of the court.

 Sporting News, The: Bears' offense will shake the NFL—or be shaken out
His offense is a true fan pleaser with its manic rhythm, aggressive passing, varying formations and spasmodic play-calling.
This year, as defenses become more familiar with the Bears' offense and other teams start to borrow from it, the Bears won't be able to rely on surprise or confusion as much as they could last year.
But that doesn't bother Crowton, who thinks the offense will be more productive in his second season in part because it will continue to evolve--plans are for increasing motion this year--and in part because the players have not yet mastered it.

(5) the offense is defined as a continuing course of conduct and the defendant’s course of conduct was uninterrupted, unless the law specifies that specific periods of such conduct constitute separate offenses.
Where offenses that deal with property, such as computer mischief, vandalism, theft, fraud, and trespass, there is only one offense regardless of the number of victims.
Therefore, the test for determining whether an offense is a lesser included offense is whether all the essential elements of the lesser offense are included in the greater offense.

 Re: West Coast Offense?
The "West Coast Offense" (which Walsh actually developed while working for Paul Brown's Bengals) is a timing offense that relies on short-to-intermediate passes and recievers running after the catch.
Virtually every offense in the NFL has encorporated parts of the WCO into their offensive scheme.
One feature of a West Coast Offense is that recievers have very little flexibility in running their routes, and they're supposed to run their routes through until when the ball is thrown.

But, after a season in which they ranked fifth in total offense and first in time of possession, the Steelers will begin the season with more concerns about their once-proud defense than their upstart offense.
In 2001, after replacing Kevin Gilbride as offensive coordinator, Mularkey had to retool the offense, simplifying the routes and putting less pressure on the quarterback and wide receivers to make the same reads.
The most-recent time the Steelers went into a regular season feeling so good about their offense was 1995, when Neil O'Donnell was the quarterback and the receivers were Yancey Thigpen, Charles Johnson, Ernie Mills and Andre Hastings.
