Tom Orsborn: TNT's ratings bonanza
Spurs-Lakers has apparently made for some compelling television.
According to TNT, the network's coverage of Game 4 of the Western Conference finals was the most-watched and highest-rated NBA game on cable this season and the second-most watched NBA telecast of the year, trailing only ABC's coverage of Game 7 of the second-round series between the Celtics and Cavaliers.
Game 4 of the Spurs-Lakers resulted in a 4.8 rating, meaning more than 5.3 million households tuned in.
Through 40 games, TNT's coverage of the playoffs is up 16 percent over the same period last year, TNT said Wednesday in release. The network's coverage of the Western Conference finals has averaged a robust 4.1 rating, a hike of 37 percent over last year's coverage of the Eastern Conference finals.

Not bad for a boring team eh?
wgaf about ratings.
ppl are watchin lakers not spurs
People are watching Kobe, not the Lakers.
This concludes that the Spurs MUST be the reason the ratings are so high... right?
huh? He is part of the Lakers so.....
too bad the ratings are going to drop since the series is over
But he isn't the Lakers.
Funny that it was Lakers-Spurs, not Lakers-Jazz or Lakers-Nuggets.
But no. You Laker fans are right. The Spurs have no impact on the ratings at all.
That's not true, if you look at any Finals the Spurs were in, you'd notice that they have a negative impact

Are we talking about 2008 or not?That's not true, if you look at any Finals the Spurs were in, you'd notice that they have a negative impact
he must have forgot all the razzle dazzle the Spurs have added have this year over last year. for instance Kurt thomas, wow he's really really......
The Laker fan bait is working perfectly. You think I really give a about ratings.he must have forgot all the razzle dazzle the Spurs have added have this year over last year. for instance Kurt thomas, wow he's really really......
Just goes to show, yet again, that Laker fan always places a high priority on that doesn't matter.
if you didnt care then why did you post in this thread attempting to defend the SpursThe Laker fan bait is working perfectly. You think I really give a about ratings.

Just goes to show, yet again, that Laker fan always needs to feel validated.
Yeah, we took the bait, don't you feel good knowing you convinced yourself Lakers fans are bad people by posting a thread.The Laker fan bait is working perfectly. You think I really give a about ratings.

How true. They fail in TV ratings just like Manure Gayn00bli fails in floppingThat's not true, if you look at any Finals the Spurs were in, you'd notice that they have a negative impact
[conspirancy_theory]Actually the conclusion is that this series will go to 7 games no matter how[/conspirancy_theory]This concludes that the Spurs MUST be the reason the ratings are so high... right?
Prior to Game 7 ESPN ran a poll about what WCF matchup people wanted to see more, Lakers/Hornets or Lakers/Spurs. I was surprised to see that the Hornets was the overwhelming winner. I know people don't like the Spurs but there's a ton of history in this rivalry. I'm not surprised it has good ratings.
Game 5 Prediction:
"Boring" Spurs: 97
Lakers: 92
Like I said before - it's called bait, idiot.if you didnt care then why did you post in this thread attempting to defend the Spurs
You know why? Because ppl already knew who's gonna win.That's not true, if you look at any Finals the Spurs were in, you'd notice that they have a negative impact
