The ratings of the Western Conference Finals are terrible, with the lowest in 10 years. The NBA is playing big now!

The NBA Western Conference Finals have come to an end, and the Thunders are in the end, 4:1, the gentleman swept the Timberwolves! Unexpectedly, the ratings were already very low, and the number of games was missing at one time, so now it was gone!

Just after today's game, according to statistics from the US media, the ratings of this year's Western Conference Finals are touching and really terrible. It hasn't been so low since 13 years! However, for the NBA, they may not care because the big broadcast contract has been signed and the ratings are not good. Who can I blame?

First of all, let’s take a look at the Eastern Conference Finals ratings, which can be said to be very good this year. The third game between the Pacers and the Knicks reached 7.1 million, which is the highest ratings in the Eastern Conference Finals in the past 10 years, and the second highest overall ratings in this year’s playoffs!

I have to say that the Knicks are a big market and have a lot of appeal. If there are no big-name traffic-level stars, the Knicks' market is really big and has strong enough attraction. Overall, this year, the Knicks still make a lot of money!

After reading the situation in the East, let’s take a look at the Western Conference. The first and second games of the Western Conference Finals were 5.36 million and 5.16 million respectively, which are the lowest value since 2013 years, which is really eye-catching! The reason is nothing more than the following points!

First, whether it is the Timberwolves or the Thunder, after all, they are not as good as the Knicks, Lakers, and Warriors in big football markets. There are few people watching and little influence. It is reasonable that the NBA is like this. It is hard to buy a lot of money. I am willing to do it without superstars. It just won’t work. This is really helpless.

Second, there is still a lack of superstars. Although Edwards is not bad, it can only be good. Alexander has been proof that this year's performance is indeed worthy of superstars, but his playing style is not pleasing. Too many free throws are also conservative criticism. Just imagine, it's okay, whoever wants to spend money to watch free throws, it's better to eat more popcorn!

Third, the game is really not good. The playoffs are similar to those of the regular season. There are too few highlights in the game, the physical confrontation is insufficient, and there is no intensity. It is easy to doze off after watching for a long time. It is meaningless. When I saw it at the end, I realized that I only saw one result and there is no place to talk about.

Fourth, the referee also has the situation of controlling the game. After watching many games, many people think that the game is fake, and the referee's dictation standards are different, giving people the feeling that the league is named and that some teams should enter the next round.

Overall, what can you see in the current NBA? There is no passion, speed, power, etc. common in sports. Take the game between the Timberwolves and the Thunder for example. Basically, the Thunder beat the Timberwolves unilaterally. There is no suspense in the game. Before the game starts, you will know the result!

In terms of playing style, too many 3-pointers are not worth watching. If you want a real confrontation, you can rarely see it. There is no muscle collision in the inside, no placement, no pushing and shoving, and no endless squirting. Instead, the hit is soft and the big guys don’t go to the inside, such as Jackson of the Grizzlies, Morris of the Cavaliers, and a big guy above 210cm, treating himself as a defender!

In addition, all the attacks, techniques, and steps in the inside line in the past are gone, and the extraordinary skills on the back line are gone, and the playing style of using small to make big is gone. Iverson's ankle terminator, Kobe's backwards are picturesque, Wade's impact on the inside, and all kinds of dunks are gone.

Never know what you are watching in the current competition? It’s nothing more than using explosive data to attract the audience’s attention, but that’s just changing the soup and not changing the medicine. The NBA is really playing big now, and gradually turning a fierce sport into an entertainment-based and striking sport. In this afternoon, it’s better to watch basketball than to watch volleyball or table tennis, which is becoming more and more boring!

The Western Conference Finals' ratings are terrible, with the lowest in 10 years. The NBA is playing a big game now!
