Lakers/Celtics are on there way, but they arent like Yankees/Redsox level yet lol.
The media is trying to force the Lakers/Celtics but it's nowhere good as the 80's.
Lakers vs Kings was good.Lakers vs Suns too.Lakers vs Celtics is looking good.
give it time, the NBA is very young right now and new rivalries need time to develop

Nice and wholesome. Family oriented yah know? the good rivalries have slowly disappeared, and Im sure the brawl in Detroit made Stern want to create this fuckin "lovefest" going on in the league even more. Not to mention, free agency having players moving around so much...they dont stay in one place long enough to hate eachother. AND, its very rare that two teams stay good enough for a long enough time to develop a rivalry.
Lakers vs Suns wasn't that great... considering the Laker team was gay and Phoenix beat them in the playoffs 2 years in a rowhardly something the NBA could build on
