It was a semifinal, not a final so I don't get your point.
 
If Djokovic beats Nadal in the final next year in 5 sets then you may be on to something.

If you want to talk similarities, talk about how the RG13 SF mirrors their AO12 F.
 
It appears that the rivalry now has a mainly psychological component to it, where either player can win on any surface, and the match can come down to a few points or a single momentary lapse in judgment. That doesn't mean the rivalry is destined to go the way Federer and Nadal did back in the day. Maybe Nadal will still be stronger on clay than Djokovic next year. Or maybe he will decline more. Too early to tell. But in slams, they play each other very tight now.
