    San Antonio/Cleveland 6.3 rating lowest ever for a NBA Finals Game 1

    Sad...

    But don't blame Lebron..

    Blame the Spurs.

    Took the Cavs to hit the all time low...

    Question:

    What makes Cleveland think anyone gives a fnck about it? It has a river that catches on fire? Last I heard...Cleveland was the anus of the USA.

    Cleveland must think it's LA or something.

    And the Nets and the Pistons too?


    Fact of the matter put the Cavs with any other team and the ratings will go up quickly!

    I'm surprised the 1999 Finals had better ratings despite the lockout, well maybe becuase it has to do something with New York

    I'll tell you one thing in regard to all of these Lebron/Jordan comparisons, the Bulls could have played the Antartica Polar Bears and still would have gotten a 13....

    Yeah, because the rest of the country was just completely on pins and needles anticipating the ratings grabber that could've been Cavs/Jazz, huh?

    Ironically enough...the Jazz appear to be the greatest ratings draw in history. At least based on that ratings chart.

    Maybe if Kingsfan realized that basketball is still played in June, the ratings would be higher. Alas...how are they to know?
