    I think the conversation deserves Russell/Havlicek/Heinsohn and Erving/M. Malone/Barkley

    All right, if we're talking titles, then we've got to do it this way (pick your own three from amongst the group):

    7 - Russell/Sam Jones/Heinsohn/KC Jones [1959, 1960, 1961, 1962, 1963, 1964, 1965] (Ramsey had 6 titles with this group, Loscutoff 6, Cousy 5, Sanders 5, Sharman 4, and Havlicek 3, all of these players except Heinsohn and Sharman had more titles in Boston than that)
    5 - Abdul-Jabbar/Johnson/Cooper [1980, 1982, 1985, 1987, 1988] (Rambis had 4 titles with this group, Worthy 3, Scott 3, and Wilkes 3)
    4 - Mikan/Mikkelson/Pollard/Martin [1950, 1952, 1953, 1954] (team won one in 1949 with only two of these guys)
    3 - Bird/McHale/Parish [1981, 1984, 1986]
    3 - Jordan/Pippen/Grant/Paxson/Armstrong/Cartwright/Perdue/King [1991, 1992, 1993] (Jordan & Pippen have 6 titles together)
    3 - Jordan/Pippen/Rodman/Kukoc/Kerr/Harper/Longley/Brown/Wennington/Simpkins [1996, 1997, 1998]
    3 - Bryant/O'Neal/Fisher/Fox/Horry/George [2000, 2001, 2002] (Bryant & Fisher have 5 titles together)
    3 - Duncan/Parker/Ginobili [2003, 2005, 2007]

    I just don't use titles as a way to measure a players greatness. That is the way to measure success though. I was talking more of the combination of great players in their prime. KG/Pierce/Allen got together and one a title, but I wouldn't call them the greatest combo though. Shit, now I'm getting confused! Dr.J/Moses/ and Barkley was awesome!

    Nothing that having Mike Tyson as our 14th guy off the bench couldn't solve.

    Definitely Magic, Worthy and Kareem.

    Do you have footage of that last second "shot"? The bible has become true for the last has also become the first. ;)

    Not a Laker fan, but I gotta agree. Close runners up are Bird-Parrish-McHale and Jordan-Pippen-Rodman.

    Rockets in the '90s and Spurs in '00s had some wicked threesomes, too.

    Best three players ever to play on the same team were the three blonds that Hugh Heffner was bagging.
