The NBA Finals this year has so far been a lopsided affair, dominated by the Golden State Warriors, who have won the first two games by an average of 20.5 points.
While it's easy to think that fans are not enticed to watch the series anymore, its viewership actually increased by five percent from last season.
In the third consecutive Finals meeting between the Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers, many have become enamored by the kind of rivalry that hasn't been seen in a long time, along with a marquee matchup between LeBron James and Kevin Durant. These subplots have already proven to be more than enough reason for people to tune in, especially in Game 2, which became the most watched Finals match since 1998, which starred the great Michael Jordan.
This is definitely good news for the NBA and it projects to intensify as the Fials shifts to Cleveland. Based on last year's outcome, it's a safe bet that the series would become more competitive by the time these two teams battle at the Quicken Loans Arena, which is more than enough reason to keep a close look on this heated saga.
