The Problem with “NBA Rivalry Week”



The Problem with “NBA Rivalry Week”

45 Comments

  1. NBA is ALL about gimmicks now, with ZERO substance…..In-season tournament (no one cares), 3-team Allstar game (no one cares), amd now rival week (no one cares)…..this is getting horrendous 😮‍💨🤦🏻‍♂️💀💀💀

  2. A NBA cup with teams in the same divisions playing against each other to claim the division title could bring back some rivalries back

  3. How do I get more traction from Gonzaga vs Saint Mary (actually a really fun rivalry to watch) then the battle for New York.

  4. It’s because the NBA is a business, that makes the players feel like co-workers to eachother

  5. Ik Chet ain’t on the same level as wemby but they seem to genuinely dislike each other. Always makes thunder vs spurs a fun matchup bc they have similar builds and play styles

  6. The NBA’s marketing department has been rough pastfew seasons. Its like they don't even like their own product 😂

  7. Why are we acting like Embiid hasn’t been cooked all season lol of course he’s gonna miss this game and the next and the next and the next… that’s kinda how being injured works???

  8. Half of these teams aren’t rivals. Mavs and Wolves sure have that playoff series, but the Suns and Mavs are clearly the rivalry they should’ve gone with. Warriors and Cavs should have played, I get why Sacramento was chosen just because of the in state rivalry plus that one series in 2023. Miami V Milwaukee and Boston V Lakers both make sense. Pels Memphis I guess is fine but no history between those 2 teams really. I could continue but seems like they really missed the mark on declaring who the “rivals” should be.

  9. Nuggets, spurs are looking like they got potential after wemby got into it with russ and Gordon last year

  10. They said this in the 2010s, but now they miss those ratings. Truth is though the league has more talent, the top 3 guys arent as entertaining as top 3 guys in the past.

  11. Cool why look up my stats when I can have a AI tell me it inaccurately and also pretend to talk to basketball players. Lame

  12. why should a person hate another one? Like do u hate every other content creator just because they have the same goals as you? Even Cade said he’s not friends with Jalen but it doesn’t mean they hate each other, they are just competing, like Lebron and Curry when LeBron got the block on Steph and trash talked him. Nobody needs to hate each other

  13. as a Sixers fan Embiid doesn't duck to jokic cause he plays at home and always dominates he just doesn't want to play in Denver

  14. Rivarly game and the bucks arent playing the celtics? They have been rivals for the past 4-5 years and always have competetive game regular and post aeason are we serious adam silver?

  15. KAT vs Wolves is not a rivalry. Everyone in mn loves kat. No bad blood here.
