A Lebron Vs Durant Rivarly would be Great for the NBA

[Malta]

neither are that type...

We need two guys who come into the league not giving a fukk...hating on everything other players do on a consistent basis.

That would have been me, had I been 6"10 with skills and the game to make it to the league.

shytting on reporters, opponents (even in losses) and opposing fans.

"Yeah he dropped 45 tonight, but did you see his wife? he won the battle and lost the war all at the same time"

Word these dudes are way to buddy-buddy. I remember hearing Barkley say that during his rookie year, Doc snapped on him for talking to members of opposing teams before the games.

Closes thing we've had contemporarily is the few "Kobe Stoppers." AI came at MJ neck with that "I don't have to respect nobody" comment.

Nah, we also have KG and Pierce. Say what you want about the Celtics, but that's not a group of "buddy-buddy" guys. Not to mention Shaq.

This storyline shyt is overrated anyway. We don't need "beef", we just need good basketball.

Wilt woulda been making NO endorsement money, lol, with that Chael Sonnen shyt.

This finals is the start of the rivalry. The L's two best players, who play the same position, and two leading mvp vote-getters.

This matchup is nowhere near the end for these two superstars, things are only getting heated up.

Celtics didn't buddy up with people. Kobe never seemed to give many fukks.

It's the younger guys who all get along. Although could rub people the wrong way

Yup...i don't care if Bron and KD play COD together, are in the same fantasy football league or work out together in the offseason...the best players in the league meeting on the game's biggest stage playing captivating ball is enough for me...if they were to meet multiple times in the Finals the next couple of years it'd be enough of a rivalry for me...the media will insure that there's enough drama and hype around it if neither of them play into it, but the basketball will take care of itself...and yeah i agree with the OP, it'd be great for the league

Heres to someone catching an elbow or something tonight

Do you know who MJ's homies are? Mike rolled/rolls with Oakley and Barkley his whole career when they weren't on the court. Just cause you happen to befriend another dude that belongs to the same select group of people to play NBA ball, doesn't mean you can't compete hard. The most heated rivals in life are between siblings. U cats are way to into the drama.

 

[qwerty_jones]

I blame the 04 USA Olympic Team after that L its all buddy-buddy in the NBA.

 

[MikelArteta]

they both will be on team usa this summer

both are to friendly as well

your gonna need some arrogant schmuck like john wall or something

 

[L@CaT]

NBA NEEDS A REPEAT FINALS



One more, and I think its On.. unless of course The Heat throughly Dominate OKC next year


But with Wade only getting Flabbier, next year its OKC for the Taking

C/S

People don't want a legit basketball rivalry they want unnecessary drama. Take Brady and Peyton they compete with each other on the field but off it they are friends, so why should Durant and LeBron start beefing with each other?
