For the last three years, the Golden State Warriors and the Cleveland Cavaliers have played in the NBA Finals for the championship. Assuming they prevail, is it healthy for the NBA and the league's fans for the two teams to compete for a fourth straight time? The NBA playoffs and finals viewership has increased since the Cavs-Warriors matchup began. The 2013-14 Spurs-Heat Finals had 15.4 million viewers, and the first Cavs-Warriors final had 19.9 million. So fans will certainly enjoy this fourth matchup if it occurs, and the NBA will continue to flourish.
