NBA Eastern Conference Finals ratings, viewership, past 30 years-UPDATED with Western Conference

[FakeNews]

As expected the Jordan era was a ratings and viewership machine as was the early heatles era Lebron. Aside from those two eras the league is generally around 5-8 million range

Looks like people didnt give a fukk about the ECF in 2003-2004 as the numbers were awful.

Those covid years were a killer. Easy to see why the NBA stays away from the summer months as the conference finals in 2020 and 2021 were two of the worse numbers they have gotten.

Would love to see how this compares to the WCF.

Nets were AWFUL for ratings. Nets Spurs had 6m viewers for the FINALS, which was the lowest ever.

Nets lakers was the worst rated of the Lakers 3peat era.

Either way, Pacers Celtics doing 6.3 isn't bad. Haliburton got hurt and most people don't take this pacers team that seriously. So that's not bad.

Is it paywalled or something? Why aren’t both conferences available?

When it's on ESPN and ABC less people tune in.
