Only old one that i've ever saw was Miami vs. New York. I LOVED that rivalry. Always wanted New York to win. I liked Patrick Ewing, Marcus Camby, Kurt Thomas, Alan Houston, Latrell Spreewell, Charlie Ward and the rest. Right now I like Suns-Lakers and Suns-Mavs.
My Top Two80's Lakers/Celtics, with Magic n Bird70's Lakers/Celtics, with Wilt n RussellA rivalry is normally a battle that goes back and forth for a long period of time. Bulls-Jazz doesn't cut it, b/c Bulls got the best every time.

I loved the Lakers/Kings rivalry. It was so fun to watch both teams go at it. I can't really say Magic v.s. Bird and Pistons v.s. Bulls because i wasn't even born yet. Except Bulls v.s. Pistons but i was an infant. So i never got a chance to really watch those games live. I've seen things on TV but it's different when you were a fan back then and watching it.

I liked Pistons-Pacers probably the best. Not only because we won every game, but we won every fight.

I'd tell you if I watched them. Whoever I met from either side considered it a rivalry, but like I said a crappy one for the Suns.

Suns fans might have but we were concerned with other things.
