Overnight ratings for Game 2 of the NBA Finals declined slightly compared to last year. Thursday’s Mavericks-Heat Game 2 earned a 10.5 overnight rating, down 4% from last year (BOS/LAL G2: 10.9), but up 6% from 2009 (ORL/LAL G2: 9.9). Despite the decline, the 10.5 is the third-highest overnight for Game 2 of the NBA Finals over the past ten seasons, trailing only last year and 2004 (DET/LAL G2: 12.3). The 10.5 overnight for Thursday’s game also marks a slight decline from Tuesday’s Game 1 (10.7). This is the 11th time in the past fourteen NBA Finals that the overnight rating for Game 2 declined from Game 1, according to SMW.
