Unfortunately the viewership was not even lower.

What NOBODY will say publicly is that this is attributable to the Commissioner BOWING to LeBron James and Anthony Davis social injustice knuckleheads pretending that they know anything about poverty or any personalized imjustioces that have come to them. They are fakes and phonies and shall we say, liars..

The Commish goes on to say that there won;t be any social justice displays on the court next year, maybe. He thinks the viewers were sick and tired of that.
Really? This guy is a genius. You mean he couln't figure out that the people who actually are interestyed in pro basketball are not out ont he street rampaging criminally and looting and burning??? Did he get a college degree from a cracker jack box? Or perhaps BRAINWASH University.

WHEN is ANYONE going to stand up and tell LeBron James if he kept his mouth shut and just did what he does well nobody else would know how abjectedly STUPID and IGNORANT of history and FACT he really is.

I hope the NBA goes belly up. LeBron and others like him need to go to Canada orother socialist type countries to play their games...

They can afford to move there so just leave as soon as possible.. Otherwise, shut your big mouths about jhow oppressed you are as you make tens of millions of dollars putting a ball thru a hoop. Good thing that does not require any brainpower.

Viewership for NBA Finals Finale Crashes Nearly 70%, Beaten by Random Sunday Night Football Game

by Dylan Gwinn
Breitbart.com





On a night when the NBA broadcast its most important game, you would think that the league would own the night. That, once again, turned out to not be the case.

The viewership numbers for the sixth and final game of the NBA Finals are in, and they are atrocious. Game 6 drew, at its peak, 6.028 million viewers. To put that in perspective, Game 6 of the 2019 NBA Finals, which included a team from Canada and did not include LeBron James, drew 18.34 million viewers.

Those figures represent a 66 percent drop.

To put it in further perspective, last night’s edition of Sunday Night Football, a game which featured a losing Vikings team against the Seahawks, a non-major market team, beat out the NBA’s ultimate game by earning nearly twice as many viewers with 12.008 million.

The heavy viewership losses are consistent with disastrous viewership numbers from the first half of the series when games one through three drew consecutive, historically low numbers. Indeed, the low numbers are consistent with an entire season of bad television viewership performances.

The NBA restarted its season, after a five-month hiatus due to the coronavirus, by making social justice messaging and imagery a centerpiece of their television broadcasts. That messaging was greeted with historic drops in ratings, drops largely due to fan dissatisfaction with the overtly political nature of the games.

As Breitbart’s Warner Todd Huston reports:

This horrific collapse should not be surprising after polls have found that many fans now believe that basketball is far too political.

A September 2 Harris poll found that 39 percent of respondents who identified as sports fans felt that the league was too political. And another 19 percent said that they had turned off pro basketball because of the NBA’s deep links to China.

The 2020 post-COVID season launched with the heavy-handed presence of the anti-American Black Lives Matter agenda.
“Recently, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said that next year the NBA will likely not feature the on-court social justice displays that have become commonplace this season,” Breitbart Sports reported. “The commissioner also says he understands that fans just want to see a basketball game, and not be subjected to social justice messaging.”
