Since there was already a "big 3", out of respect for them we should name these new celtic core 3  superstars should have a different nickname, a nickname of their own is best for them and for the big 3. Which one is the best?

GAP
Troika
TripleThreat
Trips Aces

I am partial to "The Trinity," but maybe I should wait until after they win a championship to name them that.

I was gonna say the Triforce. Kind of similar, but doesn't put as much pressure on them.

why do the even need a nickname?? The Big Three isnt good enough?? why cant we just call them Garnett, Pierce, and Allen? A nickname is totally unessecary.

I cannot call them the "Big Three." There's too many memories, too much history, and no disrespect to PP, KG, and RA, but they haven't won anything yet. Most of my time growing up was focused on the real "Big Three." I will not sully my memories.  I think we should call them "The Trifecta." If someone has something better please post it but for now, I haven't heard anything better.

Seeing how both KG and Ray Allen loves to play golf.  I think a nickname that would fit them is P.G.A.  You can also market that nickname because it's already been branded. 

The Boston Celtics present the P.G.A. tour coming to an NBA city near you. 

Because lets face it the Boston Celtics is the hottest ticket in every NBA arena this season.  They already have been rank 2nd by ESPN.  You have players on other teams saying the Celtics are going to lose. 

Yeah it's going to be like a Hip-Hop show when the Celtics come to town.  P.G.A. vs NBA.

Is there a graphic artist in the house that can come up with a simple symbol for them...like Prince.

Words obviously aren't enough.

RPG - role playing game
Also a gun

Calling them the Big Three doesn't diminsh their memory at all. It's what I'm sticking with unless someone comes up with a better name but that doesn't seem to be happening.

Now we have are "THREE KINGS" ,all we need now is are seventeenth banner and our fifteen rings!!The moves the C's have made this summer are obviously the best moves that have been made by any team in this off season or in any off season in my opinion!I do know that nomatter what others think, that trading Big Al,Gomes and company is and will be well worth #17!!With that said,Al,Ryan and Delonte will be greatly missed!
  So what do you all think? Is losing Al worth #seventeen and the Three Kings each getting thier first well deserved ring?
