ESPN and TNT paid big money for the TV rights, so I think they have a lot of pull.
We will just have to get used to the finals ending in late June unless it's sweeps.
I start to tune out anyways during May if the Flames are not involved. The weather is great, the days are longer, I rather spend my time outside so the Finals ending in June isn't that big of a deal. I check the highlights or catch a game. Only thing about this year was that the unthinkable almost happened so it kept me glued in.
We probably have to get used to the Finals stretching out now as well. 2 days in between games when they change cities is probably going to be the norm.
Most of the leagues probably want to be like the NFL and be in the news cycles as much as they can.
