Derek Fisher, who knows a thing or two about the offense, believes (Carmelo) Anthony should look to examples set by Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant — both of whom won multiple titles playing in the triangle.

“I think that Kobe had Michael as an example of how he played in [the triangle] and how he worked in it. That helped him I think to be a natural when he got to it. Carmelo now has multiple examples of how guys have been successful inside of the system,” Fisher said. “Michael broke the mold in the sense of how to be that great within the system. I think Carmelo will have an advantage so to speak of having these examples of some of the greatest players to ever play, still have these hall of fame careers within the system and playing with their teammates.”
