Lebron James and Kevin Durant working out again, but does it matter?

Lebron James is the reigning Finals MVP, and it came at the expense of Kevin Durant, which many now consider to be his #1 rival and second to James for the title of best in the world. They spent some time last offseason working together, and after a summer of being Olympic teammates, they are once again working out together in preparation for the upcoming season. Now, a lot is being put into this in regards to Kevin Durant.
Should Kevin Durant be working out with his #1 rival and the player who dominated him in the biggest stage of professional basketball? Opinions vary on this subject, such as that of Skip Bayless. Bayless, who goes on a ridiculous and disrespecting rant about how Durant is being "Owned" by James, is of those who say that Durant should not be working out with James. Then again, who listens to a man who says Tim Tebow is more box office than Kobe Bryant?
In our minds, when you look at it from a competitive standpoint, Kevin Durant should not be working out with James. It gives the view that perhaps Durant has already forgotten the pain of losing in the NBA finals against the Heat. You never saw Magic working out with Bird during their historic rivalry years. But looking at it from  a point of trying to get better, Lebron James is clearly the best player in the world, and one of the hardest workers in the league, so who better to workout with?
Some will argue that there are other hard workers (such  as Kobe Bryant, Dwyane Wade, Chris Paul, and the list goes on) that Durant could work out with. But, what are the chances of Durant and James meeting again in the NBA finals next june anyway? Yes, they are favorite in their respective conference. But, the Thunder now have to deal with the Lakers and their revamped roster, while the Heat have to stay healthy after a summer that saw their two supestars Wade and Lebron, go through a tiring playoff run. This playoff run consisted of having to carry the load of the entire team between them two after Bosh went down, and while Lebron did not go through any lingering injuries, Wade needed surgery. While Lebron continued his taxing season by playing in the Olympics.
All in all, can any of you remember the last time two teams made it back to back in the NBA finals? We can, The Bulls and Jazz in 97 and 98. That was 15 years ago. Regardless of this, Kevin Durant is a competitor, as is James. If they meet in the finals again next june, Durant will be thinking about that ring that James took from him, while James will be thinking that Durant its in his way of being considered one of the greatest of all time ( which take multiple rings). If anything, they will go harder at each other out of pure respect for the talent and hard work and dedication they put into trying to be the best.
