West Coast Offense in the NFL or the Triangle Offense in the NBA?

[Raiders Army]

Phil Jackson's Triangle Offense has yielded 10 championships, and Bill Walsh's West Coast Offense has yielded 9 championships in the NFL (through Seifert, Holmgren, Shanahan, and Gruden as well as Walsh). Which offense has had the most impact on its respective professional sport?

Poll coming.

I voted for the West Coast Offense because the principles of that offense are in a lot of the offenses today. The triangle offense needs a superstar to be good while the West Coast Offense needs an accurate QB.

How many teams besides ones that Jackson coaches use it? I think the West Coast offense has a made more wide spread appeal.

West Coast Offense obviously has a much more widespread use and overall is comparitively simple to incorporate.

The triangle is more impressive imo, but I don't think you can say it has more overall impact, due to the lack of useage.

I've always looked at the WCO as more of a play philosophy whereas the Triangle is more structured also, so it is a little tougher to compare the two.

None, really. The Timberwolves this year tried to run it for some weird reason (yeah i know it´s because Rambis knows that system, still ...) but have scaled that back a lot since the start of the year.
A lot of teams use some elements, but those aren´t elements exclusive to the triangle either but a staple of all spacing-offenses.

The similarity is that both systems are about giving one crucial player (QB because of the natural importance of the position, Jordan because of his ability) a lot of options to choose from and the other players a defined role in hwich to excel and also get everybody involved.

Basketball today is much less about a system than even 10 years ago anyway, there´s never been a whole lot of team playing in a specific system. Yeah, things that distinguish them from other teams but not sth you could call a system.

Maybe the Pick&Roll could be mentioned as similar to the west coast offense ? Geared towards simplicity and quick, fast and easily executed play given that the PG is having the key skills to execute it and involve the others. More the way the Suns used/use it then the Jazz even (they moved it away from being a true 2-man game).
