NBA > Jon & Kate

May 27, 2009 | by Ray Frager | Categories Magazines, The Rest | 1 Comment

Monday’s Game 4 of the Nuggets-Lakers series drew 9.88 million viewers, establishing highs for any basketball game ever on ESPN, any NBA game ever on cable and any cable program this year. Though I don’t necessarily root for ratings, the fact that a basketball game apparently out-rated the season debut of TLC’s highly publicized Jon & Kate Plus 8 (reported to get 9.8 million viewers) is cause for celebration. Maybe NBA players are just as self-absorbed as the reality show couple who have turned into tabloid fodder, but at least we usually only see the players on TV doing what they do best.

    And each of those programs more than doubled WWE Raw which should make Stan Kroenke happy.
