Are there any NBA trio's that are averaging 20ppg from each player right now? I'm thinking the Big Three in Boston are doing that. For the Warriors: Baron Davis (22ppg), Monta Ellis (19.3 ppg), Stephen Jackson (20.9ppg). Warriors are close, Celtics are close. Any other teams? And what trios have done it in the recent past?

Monta is getting better BTW. He averaged 26ppg on over 60% shooting for the whole month of February. He'll probably avg 20ppg by the end of the season. That will probably mean that Stephen Jackson' ppg will decline a little though.

The Warriors Old Run-TMC unit would be in there.

Orlando is close -

Howard - 21.8
Turkoglu - 19.6
Lewis - 18.5

Yep, Orlando's close, but not quite.

The VERY surprising thing is that our trio have only ALL scored 20 points or more in the same game 3 times this season - twice against the Knicks, and last night against the Hawks (but lots of times it's because Lewis scores 17-19 points, while Howard and Hedo score 20+).

Thats hard to do, but I guess the Warriors come closest to it, Suns couple of years back could of done it, same with the Mavs.

I believe the already mentioned Warriors (Tim Hardaway, Mitch Richmond and Chris Mullin) were the last team to do it in the early 90's.

Didn't the Wizards do it during Hughes last season there?

Arenas, Hughes, Caron, Jamison. Is that 4 players then?

What about the Wizards? Butler, Jamison, and Arenas all score more than 21 a game. The only problem is Arenas has only played 8 games.

I can see it happening, especially if Oden pans out and attracts double teams to free up Aldridge.

Came close, but Jamison only got 19.6 that year. And no, this years team doesn't count with Arenas :lol:

Considering Aldridge and Roy score ~20 a night now in their second year, its not that much of a stretch
