y'all really care about ratings?
sure, but i've never understood why the viewers care. they're not gonna cancel the finals. That's more Adam Silver's issue if the ratings arent where they need to beIt's better than MJ vs Bron for the 50th time
How do they even know 10M people watched it
Are there really people not aware you can hook an antenna up to your TV to get local channels...as has been the case since broadcast television started?
ABC’s exclusive broadcast of the Boston Celtics victory over the Dallas Mavericks on Sunday, June 9, was the most-watched NBA Finals Game 2 in five years, according to Fast Nationals from Nielsen. Game 2 averaged 12,063,000 viewers and peaked with 14,106,000 viewers at 10 p.m. ET to make it the best since 2019.
Celtics-Mavericks on ABC is most-watched NBA Finals Game 2 in 5 years
Sunday’s Game 2 averaged 12,063,000 viewers, peaking with 14,106,000 viewers at 10 ET. That's up 10% from Game 1.www.nba.com
12.06 million viewers for game 2
Last year Denver/Miami did 11.91 million for game 2.
So much for that "Miami stimulus"
So Game 1 is the least watched since 2019 and Game 2 is the most watched since 2019.
Like I said, it was as simple as Game 1 being a first quarter blowout.
THEYRE ONLY BATTLING 2 SERIES...
BOS/GS 2022
MIA/DEN 2023
20 & 21 ARE COVID SERIES
WHICH ARE OBVIOUSLY
THE LOWEST SERIES.
They’re battling the same series they were battling for the game 1 numbers which you tried to act like wasn’t driven by it being a blowout.
