    Even if Cleveland is in the Finals or out... it's still going to look ridiculous. Cleveland is no match for Golden State... Boston... better team effort.

    Adam Silver knows his product sucks during the playoffs. He'll be making changes in the offseason.

    I'm a huge NBA fan... and you can't put this BS on TV. It sucks.

    Ratings have to be significantly down.

    How does it suck? Both conference finals going to game 7. What else would they want?

    And I’d be willing to bet ratings way up. NBA is thriving

    WHAT?? NBA ratings are through the damn roof. All the teams have doubled in value in the last 3 years. The NBA is huge internationally. It's on it's way to overtake the NFL in overall ratings. The only thing bigger than basketball is soccer internationally but the NBA is making huge inroads. The NBA is more innovative and creative than NFL and MLB and it can be played anywhere at anytime. These playoffs are having record numbers. What are you talking about?

    What's so crazy is that even thought these playoffs have been blowouts, they are blowing out the ratings... Remember that basketball has dozens of games, so you can't expect a large number like the Superbowl but these Finals are setting up to be epic ratings.

    what exactly does that mean? ratings are up, that I don't disagree with and I'm by no means an NBA expert at all, but isn't the actual 'game play' kinda watered down from what it used to be? not as aggressive play, way more fouls called especially technicals, iso ball, everyone chucking up 40 3's a game, etc so I'm just trying to see what you mean by innovative and creative?

    Product is pure garbage, you right bout that. Apparently this what the soft ass sociol media generation likes, no defense, no bad intentions, bunch of jump shots. Shocking they like their game the same as their lives, bitch made.

    Haven't watched a playoff game this year .
    The league overall has become shit over the past several years .
    No defense , worse officiating on the planet , foul after foul of absolutely no contact , hurling up half court shots likes it's a layups .
    Teams now just buying up All Stars to create Titles .
    Nothing really entertaining about watching it even with money on some games .

    It's actually ridiculous that these ratings are so good. You had two close games out of 12, and the last round was pretty awful too. The whole playoffs sucked last season. I'd love to see a breakdown of demographic groups.

    They've been talking about a 4pt shot for a while now.

    Wonder when & if it's going to happen.

    NBA is killing the NFL in ratings right now. And is because is global. NFL only has US ratings. Kids in all countries have Lebron jerseys. No kid outside the US has Brady jerseys
