Up 4% from last year, but still down 43% from 2019's Game 1 with Toronto and Golden State.

Go woke get broke. Silver's plan to take "Black Live's Matter's" off the court and requiring players to stand for the anthem didn't work.

It’s the teams. Whoever wins will be the weakest title winning team maybe of all time.. admittedly i am not the best historian. Certainly the worst I can remember. This just doesn’t feel like an nba finals. The level of play is not up to par.

True I have no interest in these teams as a neutral fan. Watched every Hawks game until they blew it.

Last year was just incredibly boring with no fans and a lopsided matchup that I didn’t watch either

Giannis has the last two MVP's and Chris Paul is as well known as any NBA superstar. That excuse doesn't fly. This isn't the Indiana Pacers playing Sacramento. The NBA destroyed itself last year with all of the woke shite. They've clearly lost a huge chunk of their audience.

Weird, I don’t remember you posting any of the ratings from the previous rounds when the ratings were up from previous seasons

They made Game 1 way too early. Id venture to say alot of people didnt know it would be on yet

July 3rd at 11pm-Series Ended
July 4th-Independence Day
July 5th-Most people off work
July 6th-Game 1

Let's hope. But more likely people are watching other things.

Neither of these teams are good enough to hate or root against. People use to wanna see lebron get his tail kicked or see if anyone could knock off the GOAT warriors dynasty. these 2 sqauds just aren’t polarizing or captivating.

I haven’t watched. I lost interest in NBA after the political crap.

Up 4% from last yea


suggests that last year had worse ratings, and Lebron was on one of the teams and there were captive audiences

They beat 3 60 win teams without the home court just to get out the west. Up there for one of the greatest runs ever if we being honest.

Do you just have that same post saved so you can copy and paste it in every NBA thread?

People need to make up their minds. I thought these finals would kill it since there's no Lebron.

The two teams that the Rockets beat those years were two of the worst finals teams of all time…….
