Now, why am I bringing this up as someone who doesn’t really put stock into TV ratings?

I can now use them to push my agenda duh.

The game peaked at 5.3 million viewers and was the most-watched program in primetime on Saturday.

It was a MASSIVE game for a reason.

Turns out, the NBA isn’t dead!

That’s not my biggest takeaway though.

No shit, people tuned into this game.

The whole situation even a month later still makes no goddamn sense.

I mean think about it.

You don’t think Adam Silver is looking at those figures with a gigantic erection??

You could make the case his plan is unfolding perfectly.

Which brings me to my next point.

How do you solve that?

The proof is in the pudding.

It’s legitimately been that way since the 1950s.
