Rivalries
Brasília
Considered the greatest rivalry in the Brazilian basketball in the last decade, the rivalry between the two teams is also reflected in the fight for sport's recent hegemony in Brazil.[4] The clash marked the finals of many national and international tournaments, and the Flamengo won the decisions of the CBB 2007-2008 and NBB 2009, while Brasília won the finals of the NBB 2009-2010 and Liga Sudamericana 2010-2011.
Franca
Flamengo also has a rivalry with Franca. These teams decided two consecutive semifinal series, in NBB 2009-2010 and NBB 2010-2011. At the first one, Flamengo won the series by 3-1 with a three-pointer from Marcelinho Machado few seconds from the end of game 4. The following year Franca won the series by 3-0. In game 3 in this series, the point guard of Franca Fernando Penna made a beautiful play on the American forward David Teague. The other players of Flamengo did not like that and started a lot of confusion on the field, intensifying the rivalry between the two teams.
