Spock is Jim Kirk's best friend. Jim is Spock's really good friend.
This is a distinction that will cause Kirk some anxiety in upcoming sequels, I can tell. He will cling too hard to the captain's chair arm-rest and monopolize the comm to whine about it to Bones (his really good friend), who will in turn complain to Spock, who will calmly inform Kirk that having a friend be arbitrarily set above other friends in a rank of personal value is illogical, and if he'd be hard pressed to do so, he certain that the communications lieutenant's ranking would render the exercise moot by creating a positive outlier that disrupts the entire scale, but Jim Kirk doesn't believe in no-win scenarios.

"Best friend! The other you promised I was your BEST friend."
*beat*/*silence*
"...Spock!"
"What, Captain?"
"Say I'm your best friend."
"I don't see what that will accomplish."
"Say the words 'You're my best friend, Jim.' "
"For the quickest end to this conversation, the logical choice is to concede. ...You're my best friend, Jim."
"I knew it! Computer, are you recording this?"
