the best games to watch in that sense i think are the hawks v celtics games. theyve had some really testy games over the last couple of seasons. of course indiana v detroit was also nice a few years ago.

Lakers vs Kings was good.
Lakers vs Suns too.
Lakers vs Celtics is looking good.

Do you watch the rest of the league? Or just Laker games? lol  Those rivalries were ok, but obviously nowhere near the rivalries of the past.

I used to watch a lot of games from other teams too, but now 99% of the games i watch are Lakers games, yeah. They show NBA games when it's 2 AM or 4:30 AM here, so it's hard for me to find watching a Bobcats vs Timberwolves game interesting, in those conditions. I download good games, tho. Like Celtics vs Spurs, i've downloaded it and watched it on the pc.

Anyway i know it's nowhere near the rivalries of the past but....

(chek the next post..)

You may think I'll be off topic but there are few rivalries nowadays because the way the game is called is GAY imo  ... these Bulls/Pistons , Bulls/Knicks , Knicks/Heat in the late 90es were the shit because teams were able to play extra physical ... good battles in the paint , hard fouls will lead to technical fouls , cheap shots so hatred and rivalries ... that latest C's - Lakers was the shit coz some cheap shots happened , still way too many weak fouls were called ...

True that.

Lakers/Celtics are on there way, but they arent like Yankees/Redsox level yet lol.

even so, i cant see it being the same. I think its just the way the league itself has changed. Its like they all are friends lol


all friends? did you watch the last Lakers/Celtics matchup? LOL

please. The current Lakers/Celtics "rivalry" (which should be used VERY loosely) is hardly a vicious rivalry lol.  Im talkin teams who genuinly dislike eachother. Chances are, for that to happen it will have to be a rivalry within the same division or conference. The Lakers and Celtics simply dont play eachother enough to really DISLIKE eachother.

Outside of Odom and KG, I think ToNe's right. I mean, I have no idea what Odom's beef with KG is, but his been on him hard and almost dirty for the last year. Other than that, I'm shocked Ray Allen hasn't tried to get into Kobe's head more, as Allen and Kobe once had a heated rivalry. Instead it's Kobe putting Rondo in his place.

^^^^ That Lamar/KG thing has started in the 1st game of the regular season of last season , KG blocked Lamar layup and said sth like "get the fuck out of here  with that weak shit" then Lamar chased the loose ball and throw Allen out of the bounds ...

Allen getting in Kobe head ? He's Kobe bitch , maybe he does not want this to happen again 

 ... talking shit with Kobe won't bring anything good , unless you want him to drop 50 on your ass in the next game

Kobe dropping 50 isnt always the best thing for the Lakers as a team.  Thats the point of getting into Kobe's head. Hoping you can use his ego against him and get Kobe to revert back to shooting on every touch cus he's taking your shit talkin personal.

I totally agree .... I don't think history shows it is a good tactic though ... he's more likely to go bananas during the next meeting and not in the same game in this era ... but it was true in his early seasons ...

The Celtics and Lakers genuinely hate each other...Sasha wont wear green and Ariza said he'd rather kill himself than play for the Celtics before his career's over. watch more games.

Number 1 team by SI and ESPN, and best record in the NBA.. I'd say that's pretty important. The title of the Yankee's of the NBA, that's pretty important, and the only westcoast team that gets coverage in Sportscenter, that's pretty important.
