Fights and feuds are common in a league where there is cutthroat competition. Similarly, in NBA it is understandable that players might have fights or arguments among themselves, resulting in a public feud.

Minor squabbles have always been a part of the game that people have become accustomed to. However, some conflicts get out of control for a variety of reasons.

There are numerous instances of animosity between Kendrick Perkins and Zach Randolph. Randolph once chastised Perkins for being "too slow". There was a time when Zach had to give a fine of $25,000 for confronting Perkins in the locker room.

Charlie Villanueva once tweeted describing how Kevin Garnett called him a cancer patient and how he was tossing the serious disease like a joke when he was suffering from Alopecia Universalis.

There was also an argument between Carmelo Anthony and Kevin Garnett in a parking lot. However, La La Anthony later claimed that Carmelo was enraged as KG said LaLa " tastes like Honey Nut Cheerios".

The rivalry between Shaquille O'Neil and Kobe Bryant is one of the most famous in NBA history. When the LA Lakers organization chose Bryant and O’Neil was shipped to Miami Heat, egos and immaturity shattered the Lakers' team.

Kevin Durant is a person who always prefers to let his game speak for itself. Even the calm KD reacted when Dwight Howard demonstrated how "soft" he could be.

Rivalries have become a common thing in NBA. Things were different when Michael Jordan and John Starks used to fight on a regular basis, but nowadays rivalries have become limited.
