Step back, L’Équipe’s basketball podcast: why does the NBA not have a real derby?

A Knicks-Nets, a Lakers-Clippers, it has charm in many respects: stars, legendary venues, little distance to cover for fans … But these posters between teams from the same state, even the same city for the cities, often lack of life in the NBA: is it only a question of identity and history?

Obviously, the comparison is against the NBA, in terms of atmosphere, when it comes to taking a look at Greece, Serbia or Turkey. The same goes for a comparison with university basketball. But some NBA franchises are still trying to raise the mayonnaise: will it go through the players? Is it cosmetic?

Animated by Alessandro Pitzus, with Antoine Bancharel (At New York), Guillaume Degoulet and Arnaud Lecomte. Realized by Antoine Bourlon.
