Hopefully the NBA will realize no one wants to tune in to watch Lebron cry. Maybe then they'll stop trying to shove Lebron down our throats.

laker nation shattering championship merch sales, 17 chips and it seems this 2020 chip has felt the most proud to be part of. not surprising with so much burden and pain, until lebron arrived giving a glimpse of hope and delivering a finals mvp for kobe as he promised

With the exception of the NFL pretty much every sport has seen rating drops of 40-50%+ this year.

LeBron was ratings gold in his Finals appearances from 2011-2018. Highly doubt people suddenly lost interest. It's just been a crazy year.

Yea cause the ratings would of been better with a Miami vs Denver matchup. Somehow you guys blame 1 person lol. I would love to see what all of you look like in real life.

Nothing has been normal during the bubble pandemic year.

NFL viewership is also down across the board.

the only rating that matters is how you rate it inside your heart and your feelings.

It was a little bit of everything. Covid with the bubble and no fans obviously is the biggest. Next is probably the team in the finals. People want to see stars and competition. Heat provided neither. Who wants to say they witnessed the worst finals team ever? Third is more and more viewers leaving cable and streaming. Fourth and probably the least impact is People may be tired of lebron colluding for chips.

The Kentucky Derby lost 49% of its ratings for the lowest number in history.

I suppose Lebron did that too. Oh and:




Monday’s Game 2 of the MLB American League Championship Series (Astros-Rays) averaged 1.88 million viewers on TBS, marking the least-watched LCS game on record, regardless of league or network. The previous low was set less than 24 hours earlier by Game 1 of the same series, which averaged a 1.1 rating and 2.07 million viewers on Sunday night

Yeah, illegally streaming merchandise in order to give misleading results with regards to popularity is a bit harder than illegally streaming the games themselves and ruin the official ratings.
Haters avoid addressing this LIKE THE PLAGUE.

We're not trolling jordan stans. MJ's career is bulletproof. We're just trolling 3ball and coach and snaggletooth and a few other retards. :roll:

Why do people post here, on a basketball forum, and think we give a damn about ratings?

We're watching anyway, so how exactly does this affect basketball fanatics?
