They were called the “Magic Trio,” aptly so because their partnership is one of
the greatest hat tricks in the NBA, as many times in their stint together, they
had performed to everyone’s amazement. This was, and arguably still is, the
best NBA big three of all time.
Michael Jordan, then just out of retirement in 1995, came back to a Bulls team
led by Scottie Pippen. Dennis Rodman then entered the Bulls’ line-up via a
trade. This was when the Magic Trio was finally put in place.

Pippen, the team’s go-to-guy for two full seasons, and had just grown vastly
improved with this responsibility, was raring for the chance to dominate again,
this time with a really hungry Jordan, who was never sated with a forgettable
stint in baseball. Rodman, the consistent rebounder that he was, brought his
16-rebound average to the Bulls in the same year Jordan had come back to
the game.
Easily, this was an unstoppable force in the NBA, one that saw the Bulls chalk
up 72 wins and 10 losses in 1996, a record that was held for 20 years.

The mix was simply too perfect for the other teams in the league to contain.
With Jordan getting his old form back quickly, and Pippen tougher than ever,
they became the NBA’s offensive juggernaut as a duo, thanks to Rodman
giving them many possessions with his rebounding.
As a defensive weapon, they were a three-headed dragon. The Magic Trio
made it to that season’s All-Defensive First team. In style, they ended their
partnership as three-peat league champions. They shall truly go down in
history as legends.
Outside of his passion for film, David Berkowitz of Chicago, Illinois is a huge
fan of the Michael Jordan era Chicago Bulls. For more updates, follow David
