San Antonio. Cleveland.

Not exactly the mega-cities of the United States.

If Chicago played the Lakers in the finals, they would be garnering HUGE ratings. It's simple, people: Population.

:lol

Nice Try. Why did the Rockets and Magic have twice the viewership? Because the population of ORLANDO is so huge?

The Spurs aren't a draw because they are BORING. It has NOTHING to do with market sizes and every Spurs fan knows it.

Nah, were the Spurs in New York, there wouldn't be enough sanitary wipes in the world to unstick the keyboards of the national press.

People in the US are turning into cows. Someone calls the Spurs boring then all the US fans call the Spurs boring. Someoe says no one watched the game in the US and they think that is all that matters. 105 million people watched the Spurs play. The world can't help it if the USA fan wants to live in a fantasy world of slam dunks ans wide open threes based upon matador defenses. The Spurs play the game the way it was mean't to be played. No team in NBA history has had such a draw of fans. The Spurs are a worldwide favorite by x5 over any other team in history. Sorry to burst the bubble to the fans of fantasy dunk basketball. The Spurs may not be America's team, but they are the World's Team.

Yeah, those ratings were really suprising.

You got that right i live in NY saw all those Ewing Knick teams up close. There was nothing flashy or fun about Ewing and those best knicks teams were slow grinding physical teams that would beat the hell out of people. They played in a big market and got the ratings.

Other than your almighty Suns tell me who is so exciting to watch compared to the Spurs? Tony driving the lane, Manu driving and hitting 3's and Tim dominating in the low block is boring compared to what give me a few examples??

I am left wondering if the thread starter is a network executive? If not.... why do you care what the ratings are?
