Forgotten Big Threes
Sometimes, there is a big three or trio that, with the passage of time or another trio, gets forgotten and it's easy to dismiss how good they were.
What are some groups that fall under this category?
Two that come to my mind: Steve Nash/Dirk Nowitzki/Michael Finley in Dallas and Ray Allen/Glenn Robinson/Sam Cassell in Milwaukee.

Wilt Chamberlain, Jerry West, Elgin Baylor

(this should also count, they won a ring and Goodrich was prime all-star caliber at the time)
Magic Johnson, James Worthy, Kareem Abdul Jabbar
Jordan, Pippen, Rodman
