The Austin area had a Texas-sized interest in the sixth — and final — game of this year’s NBA Finals featuring the Dallas Mavericks and the Miami Heat.
Figures from the Nielsen Co. show 27 percent of Central Texas TV sets in use Sunday night were tuned to ABC affiliate KVUE to see the Mavs win the league’s 2011 championship.
That’s Austin’s highest viewership for an NBA Finals game since 2007 when another Texas team — the San Antonio Spurs — wrapped up a four-game series against the Cleveland Cavaliers. That matchup was watched on 28 percent of sets in use.
