Your cable company can track it, but that is not how Nielsen ratings are measured. Nielsen ratings are the standard currency for TV ad revenue. So unless you have a diary or a people meter, what you watch or don't watch doesn't matter.
I won't watch the games in full, but I'll probably flip over them for a few minutes now and then. In the battle of Collusion West vs Collusion East, I'll take Collusion East because of Doc Rivers, his past with the Spurs, and his role of keeping the Spurs focused for the '99 le.
If he could keep them focused so that they could win the le three years after he left, I'm not sure if that speaks well or ill of his prospects in the finals.
I would believe the former would be more accurate yea? I think my viewing habits would be a little bit different if I knew Nielsen was looking into everything I am watching.
It wouldn't be an accurate sample of the whole market/country because only a certain percentage have digital cable.
The missed point was in response to this post:
Make it consistent and boycott the Spurs next year as well. If you think the NBA is rigged, then don't watch it, period. You take whining to a whole nother level.
Why would Spurs fans boycott the Spurs next year as well, instead of another (seemingly?) staged Finals? Of course Spurs fans would watch until the Spurs won, or got eliminated. Then, presumably, they would boycott the Finals if su ions arose regarding the legitimacy of the league.
I'll watch the Finals only to root for the Celtics. It would be nice to see KG and Ray Allen win something before they retire. Plus, I don't want to see Kobe, Phil or that a-hole Vucijac win anything...and I hope James Posey throws in a classless 3 at the end of the last blowout game for good measure...

It's the lesser of 2 evils...
Unfortunately that's the situation and I agree.
I don't know about that. If the Celtics lose, the management may blow up the team - their window is rapidly closing considering Ainge traded their future by dealing Al Jefferson. Then we wouldn't have to worry about the Celtics as contenders anymore. The whole thing is a lose-lose situation. One team has to win. But I guess that means it's a win-win situation too, right?
Oh, I completely agree too... Still,
I'm with you!
Anything that David "NO Cajones" Stern has to do with the NBA that doesn't include The Spurs I want no part of. That midjit idjit only does things that boost his ego and pocket book.
Irregardless, We Will Be Bacccccccccccck!!!
Who gives a damn if all 3 or 4 you don't watch the NBA finals? When the Western Conference final ratings are up 25% from last years boring ass Spurs.
Even at its most basic level, it comes down to a matter of principle. Some people won't be watching because they question the league's ethics. Lakers fans...do know about ethics, right?
wow...the spurs won a majority of the les in the past 5 years and ALL OF A SUDDEN the NBA is rigged...
sore losers imo.
who's st member name is that?
Yup, sore losers.
your team is old...u had a good run...cant win every year...
see what i did there?
I won't watch - but I'd much rather the Celtics win it because KG did put in his time in Minnesota without whining and ing. I hope Kobe NEVER wins another championship because I hate him so much. He's the biggest baby and whiner in the NBA and I hope he gets his butt whipped!
I'm not going to boycott.
If I don't have something better to do with my time than watch TV, and there's nothing better on some other channel, then I'll watch the Finals. I'm not going to make a point of watching, and don't much care who wins (prefer Celts, but whatever...) but I'm not going to boycott. Some of the games might be exciting.
