What team will you love when Duncan retires?

I'm sorry..you must have us mistaken for MAVS fans...we don't jump teams every couple of years. I've been a Spurs fan since 1985..my first recollection of any NBA basketball game. I've been there for all the bad years and the good. Duncan or no Duncan, I will always be a Spurs fan...

The Spurs vs. Mavs is the best rivalry because the games always come down to the last minute. Spurs/Lakers games are always marred by bad officiating.

Thank you very much! Now if you trully want to talk about a real rivalry, not those other guy ass matchups you all name before, this is the one.
Lots of People have died over this River-Boca rivalry. Now I don't know if this makes it the best rivalry or the most idiotic one, but there's no doubt it is BIG.

The term rivalry has been invented for River - Boca "El classico". In soccer there is one "classico" the other stuff are just derbies.

For me the biggest rivalry ever is Fisher / Spassky, this rivalry is all about rivalry:

- Game concept the othodox vs. creativity
- Schools : the russian school vs. the US
- Cold war context
- Little stories inside the big one: spying, cheating...
- Psychological war
- World wide interest
- At stake the intellectual supremacy between USSR and USA
- The noblest sport ever
etc... What was at stake was beyond a cup or a le

[manubili]

Within the list we should have:

River Plate - Boca Junior
Bobby Fisher - Spassky
USA - USSR hokey
RFA - RDA for soccer
Cassius Clay - Joe Frazier
Sampras - Agassi
A. Prost - A. Senna
Bernard Hinault - Greg Lemond
