Cavs/Celtics Drew a 4.8 Rating: Dodgers/Cubs a 4.6

So do you as a NBA fan feel more superior because of this or something

I ain't one for rating wars but why you acting like the C's ain't one of the NBA's most historical franchises and they weren't going against the league's biggest star? You describe the MLB game as having " two of the most historical franchises" then just say it was "beat by the NBA" as if this was a game between the Pacers and Bucks.

BECAUSE ONE WAS A PLAYOFF GAME
WHILE THE OTHER WAS A REGULAR SEASON GAME.

NBA isnt driven by franchises like MLB.. its star driven.

Celtics were irrelevant from 1992-2007, but the ratings for the NBA were massive.

And the biggest star in the sport was playing last night night.

Against another star who just fled his team

This'll be my last response in here, cuz I legit don't care, I just found it funny how you framed it like it was a great MLB matchup going against an average NBA matchup when that wasn't the case.

82 games vs 162 games tho. A little under twice the profits of the NBA...Math adds up in the end.

NBA >>>

Once the Hawks are back to dominance it's over for the other sport leagues.

Not just "a regular season game", opening night.

But really tho, I don't care, just found the blatant spin hilarious.

Baseball being that close to the NBA opening day is basically a win for MLB, tbh

 

[tremonthustler1]

ehh for example, Game 4 Indians/Yankees got a 4.4 rating.
Wednesday’s Yankees-Indians American League Division Series Game 5 had a 4.4 rating
ALDS Ratings: Big Finish For Yankees-Indians - Sports Media Watch

This isnt our uncle's Yankees with Jeter, Bernie, Joe Torre, Paul O'neal etc anymore.

Aaron Judge is a star, but not a crossover star, he's not Griffey, Bonds, Jeter, A-Rod, etc he's not gonna captivate the casual fan to tune in.

You’ve already tried this crap once already. Those are the 2nd best ratings FS1 has ever had.

 

[NoMorePie]

I thought it was common knowledge that the MLB is lit once playoffs roll around. 50k in attendance per game and all that jazz

We doing NBA vs MLB wars now?

Especially considering the demographics of this county and how Cac's see the NBA has a black thug league
