Forgotten Big Threes

[SwooshReturns]

Sam Cassell/Ray Allen/Glenn Robinson

back in the early 2000's they were considered the big 3.

That isn't a big three. Sam Cassell wasn't a "star" caliber player.

[rodman91]

Most of the guys listed aren't big threes.

Blaylock, Smith, Mutombo - mid 90's

[SHAQisGOAT]

Is it just me or this is what's supposed to be a big three? Because you know three great players and, 6'9, 6'10, 7' (all at least)

Russell/Havlicek/Cousy
Malone/Stockton/Hornacek

[La Frescobaldi]

Bobby Dandridge, Marquis Johnson & Bob Lanier.... shoot Sidney Moncrief too
early 80s Bucks squad was fierce

[Clippersfan86]

Baron Davis, Jamal Mashburn, Jamal McGlore

That isn't a big three. Sam Cassell wasn't a "star" caliber player.

Sam Cassell was one of the best PG's in the game and yes that was a legit big 3. If anything Robinson was the weakest link of that trio.

Cassell was a star to me back in that day

[Jolokia]

Hardaway, Mourning, & Mashburn

[Scholar]

Wilt Chamberlain, Jerry West, Elgin Baylor
(definitely the first one of super-star status)

Wilt Chamberlain, Jerry West, Gail Goodrich
(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

Jordan, Pippen, Grant

Is this a serious post? Who the fuck forgot any Jordan, any Magic or any Chamberlain/West trios? Get the hell outta here.

[KOBE143]

Bosh, Wade and Joel Anthony

Shaq, Williams, Varejao

[Just2McFly]

And how in the world are Jackson/Oneal/Peja a trio when Oneal only played 16 games with Peja? And Peja was there for only half the season, which came to an end in the 1st round.

Some people really need to try and understand what a big three is, it isnt just the three best players on any given team...

You should try watching basketball before making posts. That Indiana team was poised to do some major damage with that trio, but Jackson wore out his welcome.

[Whoah10115]

I don't think Horace Grant made that a big 3.

Steve Nash, Amare Stoudemire, Joe Johnson?

Who? You mean Shawn Marion.

Kevin Johnson, Charles Barkley, Tom Chambers

1993 Suns(Lost to Jordan's Bulls in the Finals)

Who? You can't mean Tom Chambers. He was on the bench by then. Dan Majerle, ok.

[VIP2000]

Baron Davis, Jamal Mashburn, Jamal McGlore

It sucked that Baron and Mashburn were never healthy at the same time though.
