Conversations between NBA teams show hidden Twitter relationships

In some cases, the network of conversations between NBA teams on Twitter makes sense. The Orlando Magic spend a lot of their time talking to the Atlanta Hawks, a conference and geographic rival. And then there's the prolific discussion between non-conference partners the Phoenix Suns and the Hawks. Hover over the edge of the circle to see the team, and hover over the connecting lines to see the number of conversations with another team. A thicker line indidcates more conversations.
