    nba finals tv ratings will kill Stanley Cup finals ratings once again

    I love the Lord Stanley finals. Don't get me wrong. The storyline s in the nba finals are just better. Duncan and pop going for 5 manu and Tony for 4. Lebron 3. Wade 4. Rematch of one of best finals in history. Etc etc.

    World Cup Final will kill both NBA and NHL finals by 100 times.

    Not many people watch hockey
    It's semi cult sport in USA

    Not exactly going out on a limb there. And if doesn't really matter what the matchups are, NBA will always get the higher ratings. And I personally prefer watching NHL Finals myself.

    I think even in LA. Their NHL ratings have been terrible even during Cup Finals vs. Devils two years ago.

    Not in the USA, NBA would win by a landslide. And even NHL may get more ratings than World Cup in USA.

    Obvious reason why though. That was actually one of JJ's more accurate posts, take away Rangers and NHL would have gotten lower ratings in New York than ABC comedies.

    It's easy for the dumbfukks to follow a big orange ball, 2000 commercials and a 1000 free throws... Don't have to think too much...

    A landslide

    NBA will rate between 9-12 unless the series goes 6-7. WC games got a 2.1 in 2010.

    I don't know where you get ratings from but the 2010 WC Final which was played at 2:00 in the afternoon had 24.3 million viewers in the US.

    Stanley Cup Finals average 5 to 8 million viewers.

    Last year's NBA finals averaged 17.7 million viewers.

    So even in the US the WC Final has more viewers.

    How much did the first round of the NHL playoffs draw? Compare apples with apples.

    Bottom line is no hockey just does not get a ton of ratings

    Rarely tv deals
    Rarely endorsements
    No stars

    Not in Canada. Most likely not in Buffalo, Pitt, etc.

    NBA ratings are down compared to the past.
    Mostly catered to minorities, punk kids and white sellouts.

    Those are the tv viewers because they'll never afford tickets in person.

    This is a no brainer. NHL is last place in the top 4 sports.

    i saw PACO in another thread say: NHL > NBA

    well, the TV ratings say otherwise. hence my thread.

    anyhow, i love both playoffs so for me it's all good
