The bleeding continues! Poor viewership for Game 2 of the NBA Finals
The championship showdown between Indiana and OKC continues to fail to impress spectators
The 2025 NBA Playoffs are in their final stretch. The Indiana Pacers and Oklahoma City Thunder are competing for the championship ring in the Finals. However, they have yet to convince the audience.
Game 1 was followed much less compared to previous years, and the second game followed the same trend. In the United States, the game had an audience of 8.76 million on ABC, marking a 29% drop compared to the 2024 Game 2 between the Celtics and Mavs.
At the same time, this game has been the least watched Game 2 of the Finals since 2007, when San Antonio and Cleveland attracted 8.55 million viewers.
Lastly, the NBA Finals 2025 now rank second in the Nielsen audience measurement era (1988-present) where neither the first nor second game reached 9 million viewers. Harsh stats for the competition.
