    Obviously there are the great ones that won championships such as:


    LeBron, Wade, Bosh
    KG, Pierce, Allen
    TD, Ginobli, Parker
    Jordan, Pippen, Rodman
    Bird, McHale, Parrish
    Magic, Kareem, Worthy
    West, Chamberlain, Baylor


    But I want to list some pretty good trios that may have been forgotten in history. Here's my list of notable trios

    Olajuwon, Drexler, Barkley
    Francis, Mobley, Yao
    Yao, Tmac, Artest
    KD, Westbrook, Harden
    Nash, Marion, Stoudemire
    Kidd, Martin, Jefferson
    Kidd, Jefferson, Carter
    Hardaway, Mullen, Richmond (Run TMC)
    J Will, Webber, Divac
    Bibby, Stojakovic, Webber
    Robinson, TD, Avery
    GP, Kemp, Schrempf
    Barkley, Majerle, Johnson
    Gay, Zbo, Gasol
    Kobe, Gasol, Bynum
    Kobe, Gasol, Odom
    D Will, AK47, Boozer
    Allen, Lewis, Ridnour


    That's about all I can remember right now. I look forward to your additions

    Surprised you mentioned two Laker teams of the 2000's and didn't put the team that went 15-1 with Kobe and Shaq, you could add Fisher or Grant for kicks, but that team was pretty unstoppable.

    not really a trio, more of a duo. Wade and Shaq was also a force, but not mentioned.

    Also Kobe, Shaq, GP, and Malone were a 4 player power house along with Billups, Hamilton, Wallace, and Wallace

    Good list overall.

    The biggest oversight for championship teams is arguable the best team ever...the Fo' Fo' Fo' 1983 76ers,

    Moses, Dr J, Maurice Cheeks

    Anyone complaining about Parish...well, he's definitely better than Bosh....lols.

    For the Celtics, I'd actually include Dennis Johnson in there somewhere. He won a ring almost by himself for Seattle.

    I was about 3 minutes late. Nice call...but I think Cheeks was more important to that team than Toney. But that team was stacked. We could probably say the best 5-man team ever.

    Moses
    Dr J
    Cheeks
    Toney

    and Bobby Jones as 6th man when they went to their fastbreaking set.
