Since the Triangle Post Offense is entirely based on defensive reads, anytime the defense attempts to disrupt or deny a passing lane, it opens up automatic counter moves that usually result in easy baskets.

 ESPN.com: NCB - Hoops 101: Triangle Offense
Actually, when it comes to the Triangle, it was Winter's college coach at Southern Cal, Sam Barry, who planted the early ideas in his player's mind about the offense.
Basically, the Triangle consists of a three-man triangle on one side of the court and a "two man game" on the other side of the court.
Once the "triangle" is set up -- in this case with the point guard (1) having cut to the corner -- a "line of deployment" has been created between the ball (3), the post (5) and the basket.
