At the beginning of the summer, a big debate broke out on the internet (surprising, I know) over which NBA teams were rivals. This started with a post on Reddit with a cool graphic showing who fans considered their favorite team’s biggest rivals, which you can find here.
Stuff like this is always fun and totally subjective, but I can tell you objectively that the Dallas Mavericks fans lurking on Reddit got this completely wrong. So with the new season just over the horizon, I decided to rank the Mavericks’ rivalries, from non-existent to most hated.
