Per WP:NRIVALRY. This match-up is being labelled as a rivalry only when they meet in the Finals. Yes, there are a few mentions of them being a rivalry, and they could really be said as a rivalry, but the coverage is not significant enough to be said as notable here in wiki. Fails WP:GNG. Stats in infobox are also unsourced. Could also be WP:OR. ^{Baby miss fortune} 13:19, 21 January 2018 (UTC) reply

• Delete Fails WP:GNG with lack of significant coverage in multiple, independent sources. The biggest issue is that it fails the guideline WP:WHYN, namely that multiple sources are needed "so that we can write a reasonably balanced article that complies with Wikipedia:Neutral point of view". Otherwise, editors will just cherry-pick facts from routine coverage in recaps of individual games, as opposed to independent sources that look at the rivalry as a whole. At this point, it looks like calling this a "rivalry" is WP:OR.— Bagumba ( talk) 16:08, 29 January 2018 (UTC) reply
