The final game of the Spurs/Warriors series was by far the weakest TV draw.
Game 6 of the Spurs/Warriors second round NBA playoff series drew 3.8 million viewers on ESPN, easily the least-viewed game of the series. There were no comparable games either last year or in 2011.
Every other game of the Spurs/Warriors series drew at least 5.3 million viewers.
Earlier in the night, Game 5 of the Pacers/Knicks series drew 4.6 million viewers on TNT — down 33% from Heat/Pacers Game 6 on ESPN last year (6.9M), and down 10% from Bulls/Hawks Game 6 on ESPN in 2011 (5.1M).
