NBA ratings will never compare to the 90's because there are more channels.The NBA is more populr now then ever,ratings dont indicate nothing.This year's playoffs were maybe the best ever?Of course they will say it dip 1% but ratings dont indicate quality.Nielsen boxes are flawed anyway but thats another topic
You need to rewrite that damn title and come again
Blackhawks are the biggest draw for the NHL.

u mean to tell me folks about to come out the woodworks to watch hockey.....something they havent watched all year or ever
Sadly, yes....
In markets like LA and NY where most folks are watching Knicks, Lakers, Clippers, Nets, THEN Yankees and Mets, Dodgers and Angels, most parachute in when the playoffs start in hockey...it's sad but true
bruh... Game 7 of the NBA Finals peaked at 22.6 on ABC last year.
NHL has never done more than 3.2

I don't give a fukk as long as the Kings beat them motherfukking rangers asses for the next 2 weeks and bring the trophy back to L.A.
As a Ranger fan I would've liked to have seen Chi in the finals. Would've been 2 of the original 6 in finals.
Plus its in LA, they don't give a fukk about hockey. Bunch of band wagon fans.

It could be close but i doubt it. I'm sure those teams are popular in ny and la and the fact it's two major markets and the finals will garner more interest. I'll tune in on games that don't clash with the heat. But I think nba might do more. Rematch of last year, heat fans and heat haters watching hoping they lose, star power LeBron brings to table, spurs not a major market but have their fans. Plus other markets checking for them, such as all over Texas. Nba just feels as a more intriguing finals. But I'm no hockey expert so I don't know their stars. I know Kane but his team lost. I think nba got this.
dog are you serious? NHL is just above a Niche sport..
last years Chicago vs Boston- Game 6 - got a 4.7
Spurs vs Heat - 15.7

you got a point there. But the rangers haven't been to the finals in 20 years. I think they might draw some ratings just off their market.dog are you serious? NHL is just above a Niche sport..
