no
The Big 3 need 5 wins to tie and 6 wins to become the winningest trio in NBA history, they have 6 games remaining, do they get it done?
Doubt it. We'll probably lose at least one game, and we may rest some of our Big 3. Next year, I think, if Manu and Timmy come back.
We already have the the trioplayoff record, though!
Apparently OP is either Ginobili, Parker or Duncan.
Last year at that time, I was pretty certain Timmy would leave (and Manu with him). When we reached the Finals, I was like 99% sure.
This year, I don't see him leaving.
Isn't it 6 wins to TIE the Celtics? Manu needs to come back next year to break this record and make it UNREACHABLE (in today's NBA - maybe Durant, Westbrooke, Ibaka have a chance). Duncan seems like he'll come back - he's always said he'd play as long as he's effective and he's more than that.
Yes. It's 6 to tie. They'll have to come back next season to take the record outright, even if they win out this season.
I did the math by hand and got 5 to tie. Is there a site where you are getting that info?
I knew someone was gonna say this
Page 6 of the Spurs Team Notes before yesterday's game showed 533 wins for the Spurs trio and 540 for the Celtics trio: http://www.nba.com/gamenotes/spurs.pdf
At some point they'll update those game notes, but at the moment they still have yesterday's.
Hmmm, Ill check my math if this becomes more relevant and they win 5 or 6 of the remaining games

Spurs trio of Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili now played the MOST GAMES IN NBA HISTORY as a trio (730). Passed Bird/McHale/Parish.
Uh... wins in post-season don't count?
No. Just regular season counts.
The Spurs trio already has the all-time winningest post-season record.
The records keep coming. It's incredible to see the Big 3 continually rack-up new records, but its bittersweet at the same time knowing Duncan and Manu will be gone within 2 years.
They'll get it next year. No rush.
The Celtics' trio won 3 rings but the Spurs of Duncan, Parker, Ginobili won 5...which makes the record even more than amazing. Love these guys, the most successful Big 3 in the NBA history.
2003, 2005, 2007 and 2014. According to my calculation, 1+1+1+1=4. You might be right in a few weeks though
My bad.
But still 4>3.
You might be right in a few weeks though![]()
So good they landed Kawhi at the back end of their careers after carrying RJ/Bogans/Finleys corpse they would have been wearing down quick.
Where did you get this stat from?
