Shaquille O’Neal played for Phil Jackson and knows what needs to be done to bring a championship home.
The TNT analyst believes that Jackson’s Lakers and Bulls’ dynasties prove that the triangle offense needs two superstars to work.
“For the triangle to work, you need to have two superstars,’’ he said. “It’s been proven over time. Look at what Phil needed to win his championships in Chicago. Then look what he had in L.A., with me and Kobe. You have to have two superstars playing in the triangle to win championships.’’
J.R. Smith doesn’t fit that bill.
