A Lebron Vs Durant Rivarly would be Great for the NBA

[HiphopRelated]

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"

Why do people act like friends can't be rivals? Just because the nikkas don't geniunely dislike each other doesn't mean they aren't gonna go hard on the court. I know that I compete the hardest when going against my friends not matter what we are playing.

Rivarlies can def be created through the media in todays age.. If

People dont respect manufactured rivalries.

They respect when its organic.

Kind of hard to have a rivalry when these dudes are working out together in the summer.

There needs to be some form of dislike between them for it to really jump out.

Not neccesairily. The greatest rivalry in NBA history (Magic v. Bird) were between two guys who had a lot of respect & admiration for each other. I don't think KD & Bron have to dislike each other to want to beat each other's brains in.

The best possibility for an actual rivalry is if the Knicks get their act together in the next couple years.

Heat/Thunder rivalry only really happens if it ends up being some 80's LA/Boston shyt

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.

word. i think people forget Bird & Magic were friends too......throughout the 80s. players back then just didn't give a fukk once the game clock started.

 

[FLASH]

He'll be back. Bulls vs Heat is a real rivalry. The whole vibe of them games is different. Players cried over a SEASON game.

More revisionist history huh? I'm not gonna deny that cats can be friends and still go hard. I'm not gonna deny that Magic and Bird EVENTUALLY became friends. However this idea that Magic and Bird were friends throughout the rivalrly is a blatant fallacy. Everything out of both men's mouths has contradicted that statement. Bird himself even said that he kept his distance from Magic because he didn't think he could go his hardest if they were tight like that.

They became friends in '84 after their commercial.

They met in the Finals repeatedly until '87.

I think you confusing "being friends" with "being BFFs".
