I don't think the conspiracy is solely about the # of games in each series.
People are saying the "NBA wants this to go 7"
I'm just showing that there have been too many instances when the series hasn't even gone 6, or 5 for that matter.

And FYI, there is no data bias.
From 1980-1989...
2 sweeps (83,89)
2 7-game series (84,88)

There is a new TV deal negotiation coming up in a few more years. If the NBA were going to ramp up the excitement artificially, these next several Finals would be the time to do it. I don't think that's the case, just that there's more incentive to "script" things now than say 2 years after the last deal was signed.
