    Like I said in another thread the 2007 Spurs sweep of Lebron's first Cleveland Cavs team to make the Finals was the biggest Finals mismatch ever and it turned out to be pretty boring. This is a mismatch but I'd argue this Heat team isn't the worst team to make the Finals they just have had terrible luck with injuries and they don't match up well with the Lakers to begin with.

    Not many people watching anyway. A trend of low ratings throughout the NBA postseason has now reached the NBA Finals. And hit it hard.Game 1 of the Finals between the Los Angeles Lakers and Miami Heat brought in only 7.41 million viewers to ABC, according to The Hollywood Reporter. That is reportedly the lowest viewership seen for the Finals since at least 1994, when total viewers began to be regularly recorded.

    The number is down 45 percent from last year’s Game 1 between the Golden State Warriors and Toronto Raptors, which had 13.51 million viewers. This is the fourth straight year Game 1 viewership has gone down compared to the previous season.

    Great finals. Will be over quickly. Maybe next year the East can come up with a team that is compelling.

    NBA superteams have killed the sport.

    Nobody in the midwest can get into this shit because the talent ALWAYS leaves now for the pre ordained coastal teams.

    If Giannis bails that might be the end of the NBA in general....the MN, MIL, CHI, OKC, UT, have zero shot of landing any FAs....

    Sweep is inevitable at this point. Unfortunate injuries for Miami. Free title for Lebron

    You guys are so dramatic, LA cannot even guard Miami if some of the Lakers bricks bounce differently off rim and they get like 6 less offensive rebounds Miami would of win last night. Not to mention the Heat two best defensive rebounders Bam and Silva were out.

    Heat were only the 4th team in NBA Finals history to go 50/40/90 last night. If they can just guard the Lakers like Houston or Denver did they can win by double digits.
