    Here's my list:Wizards VS Bulls - It all started in 2004 Preseason, when that huge fight between Brendan Haywood and Antonio Davis occurred. Then the rivalry went on during the '04-'05 season, and became bigger during the 2005 NBA playoffs. Celtics VS Nets - These division rivals went at it a lot during the early '00s, many memorable playoff moments, and who can forget that 21 pt comeback by the Celtics?

    Nowadays Sixers-Celtics. No one notices it though. It always comes close when then play. And that 3OT game was incredible.

    I remember the Nets and the Celtics had some playoff battles in the early 2000's. Boston made an unbelieveable comeback in game 5 I think (I can't believe I turned that game off)
