| The Sun's 14 game winning streak is the longest by a team to finish the regular season in WNBA history

Even though the Sun is my 2nd favorite team, they've been my 1st most of this season. I feel like they've put in the most blood, sweat and tears (both of the water variety and the tendon variety) the past few years and are most deserving of a championship this year.
It was a lot of fun watching today's game.

What makes them the "most" deserving?

It seems like making the finals in 2019, playing way beyond what was expected both last year and this year, and being the #1 seed at the end of this year make them most deserving. For me, the image (and sounds) of AT having her shoulder put back in place during the playoffs last year make them most deserving to me, but then, AT is my favorite player in the W and I want her to have a championship now. I'm not a patient person.

I buy that as an explanation for why they're deserving; I'm not sure if that makes them the "most" deserving. Did you feel like Vegas was the "most" deserving team to win a championship last year? And, if not, why not?

TBH, I just liked the sound of 'most deserving,' as if it were an ancient prophecy I was manifesting into existence by thinking it so.
I'm not much of an Aces fan. so no, I did not find them most deserving. However, I do want to see A'ja win at least one championship in the W.

If you REALLY want to see that, this would be a good year for it. They have to start paying Wilson big money next season, and the belt-tightening could hurt them. Cambage, All-18, & McCoughtry are all UFA, and after paying Wilson what she deserves, I’m not sure they can afford any of them unless they get accept far below market value or trade a guaranteed contract.
So yeah, this year would be a good year to root for them.

But I want to see AT, BJones, SJones and KCharles win one more than I want to see A'Ja win, at least this year.

Draft a Terp, and I'll be a big fan. I'm easy like that. Though you do have arguably the State of Maryland's best bball player on your team, so maybe I do need to re-think my stance on the Aces.
