Message: [QUOTE="GCKSFN4L, post: 4388040, member: 11389"] That's not what I said. You're making assumptions based on my post. I do think Vegas plays a more exciting brand of basketball for more casual fans, hence the GSW comparison that also gets the similar love. They generally shoot a lot of 3s, they have one of the better passers and one of the most clutch shooters in all of basketball in Gray and they have one of the more hype players on the court in Wilson. I personally think the Sun play good ball but the style of play isn't as a well received from casual fans, they play tough defense and rely more heavily on in the paint points. I would make the same argument about SC and UConn, more casuals would gravitate towards UConn because the offense isn't as reliant on scoring in the paint. As for the players, I don't think the CT players are unlikable at all, they often play with a chip on their shoulder and play very tough, I appreciate it as a fan but it's not the same as Vegas. I don't think there's a team in the league that appears to look like they are having as much fun as them both on and off the court this season. They just have more outgoing personalities as whole and they make the job easier for the media to cover with their wackiness and fun demeanor. As for Hammon her story speaks for itself as both a player and her coaching journey. My comment was never in aby disrespect to CT and that was never my intent. My point is that there's a lot more of material that would be easier to sell based on what Vegas provides both on and off the court and that's I believe the media may lean their way. [/QUOTE]
