with the signing of manu ginobili for the 2002–03 season, the "big three" was born. during their first season together the big three averaged a combined 47 points with tim duncan leading the way averaging 23.3 points, along with tony parker's 15.5 points and manu ginobili's 7.7 points. as the big three continued, so did their contributions to the team. ginobili had the biggest jump in points of the big three as he averaged more than five points more than he had the previous season. before the season, david robinson announced he was planning to retire at the end of the season, signifying a transition from the "twin towers", a nickname given to the duo of duncan and robinson. the new "big three", along with some help from david robinson, assisted the spurs to an nba-best 60–22 record and home-court advantage throughout the entire playoffs. in their first series, the spurs defeated the phoenix suns in six games, setting up a second-round match-up with the los angeles lakers. having lost their last two postseason games to the lakers, the spurs and the big three were looking to avenge their previous losses against the los angeles lakers. in game 6, duncan posted 37 points and 16 rebounds, as the spurs won with a 110-82 victory and winning the series. following the game, spurs head coach greg popovich said: "i thought in game 5 and game 6, he [duncan] was astounding in his focus. he pulled everyone along these last two games." tony parker and manu ginóbili, the other two members of the "big three", were also playing throughout the series. after moving past the lakers, the spurs defeated the dallas mavericks in a six-game series in the western conference finals to advance to the 2003 nba finals. the finals featured several performances from duncan, who averaged 28 points and 16 rebounds and was named finals mvp. in game 6, duncan recorded a triple-double, as the spurs were able to close out the series and secure the "big three's" first nba title. following the nba finals victory, duncan said: "we were all confident that something would happen, that we would turn the game to our favor, and it did." duncan also expressed sadness over the impending retirement of his friend and teammate david robinson. however, his remaining teammates, ginobili and parker, appeared poised to fill the void left by robinson. both made contributions in the series, as parker averaged 16.3 points for the series while ginobili added 9.7.
