- Keep - Notability isn't temporary. "may have been a notable rivalry in years past", even nomination acknowledges it's past notability. CavaliersâWarriors rivalry is the most notable nowadays, but 20 years from now they may not even care about each other anymore and that won't reduce the notability that it has earned currently. In terms of missing RS, the first source in article is from ESPN and discusses the history of the rivalry, and there are other sources out there [1] [2] that rank it as one of the higher ranked rivalries in NBA history.
