Only one of those is active, so if you ask "who is", then it can only be that one.

You could pick several Lakers/Celtics teams and pull a big 3, my personal favorite is:

Johnny Bench
Pete Rose
Joe Morgan

Honorable Mention:
Tony Perez
Dave Concepcion
Ken Griffey Sr.
George Foster
Sparky Anderson

I hate the Cowboys, but it's gotta be Aikman/Emmitt/Irvin.

No Jordan, Pippen, Rodman?

72 win season.

3 peat.

Of course I'm not sure Jordan needed a third since he's the GOAT. Hell, Let's use Steve Kerr, Ron Harper, Luck Longley or Tony Kukoc the third player.

Messier, Leetch, Richter?

That wasn't even the best "Big 3" Messier was a part of. Gretzky-Messier-Coffey.

Ever? Off the top of my head:

NBA: Kareem, Magic, Worthy.
MLB: Ruth, Gehrig, Lazzeri (ok, the 3rd's a bit of a drag, but Ruth and Gehrig are the best big 3 by their lonesome. If you want more from the #3 guy, I guess Mantle-Berra-Rizzuto/Ford or Jackie-Snider-Campanella)
NFL: Montana, Rice, Lott
NHL: Gretzky, Messier, Kurri/Coffey

Now?

NBA: Duh.
MLB: Cabrera, Fielder, Verlander
NFL: Watt, A. Johnson, Foster
NHL: Toews, Kane, Keith
