On Sunday evening, Lebron James won his 4th NBA title. It took him 6 games to defeat a team who had 75-1 odds of even making it to the NBA Finals before the season started.
And although the China-loving NBA “star” won another title, it appears that almost nobody was even watching the game.
In fact, the NBA FINALE got beat out in the ratings department by a meaningless mid-season NFL Sunday Night Football game!
Here are the numbers from Breitbart:
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.
Also, if you thought Lebron James won his 4th title with dignity and humility, you’d be wrong.
He got penalized in the last few minutes of the game for showboating and taunting the other team.
In the closing minutes of the game while the Lakers were up by more than 20 points, James slam-dunked the ball and slapped the backboard. He received a technical foul for this arrogant act.

What is your reaction to the China-loving Lebron James winning another championship, and gloating while doing it?
