NBA fans are used to debating about hypothetical scenarios and selecting what they prefer or think would happen in an imaginary situation. The GOAT debate is the prime sample of this, but fans like to discuss almost anything NBA-related.
A couple of weeks ago, after Break Ankles Daily shared a pic with four of the best trios in NBA history, the community was ready to prove their point. BKD asked fans what trio they prefer between the Miami Heat, Chicago Bulls, San Antonio Spurs and Golden State Warriors:
Miami: LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh
Chicago: Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Dennis Rodman
San Antonio: Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, Manu Ginobili
Golden State: Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, Klay Thompson
Every team received good comments, but two of them got the most votes among fans. Golden State and Chicago, thanks to their offensive power and the titles they won, landed more votes than Miami and San Antonio. Even though some folks said they went 6-0 in the Finals, they were together for only three years.
LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Bosh played together for four years, going to the Finals in each year and winning two NBA championships. Jordan, Pippen, and Rodman joined forces from 1996 through 1998, winning three consecutive championships.
Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, and Manu Ginobili spent over a decade in San Antonio, winning four championships together with the Spurs. The Warriors’ Big 3 dominated the league from 2016 through 2019, going to three straight Finals, winning two championships in the process.
These four trios were really great. They played great basketball and won a combined nine titles, leaving a huge mark on the game. Everybody has their opinion on who they’d take, but whichever trio they pick, they’ll get a terrific core.
