IMO, a FT streak is a pretty low value thing to track. Guarantee none of us knew who held the record before Cam got close. I still don't know, nor do I really care. Some records (like career scoring nationally or team) are indicators of long successful careers and thus have more of a place in history. FT streak, not so much.
It would be fun if Cam got the record, but I won't be upset if she misses and I really hope that she won't be either. My guess is that Cam doesn't care a whole ton, but pressure on her is building because it's in the press and people ask about it. What I really hope is that it ends soon so that Cam can just eliminate it from any game concern. Individual things like this can become a distraction if they get big enough. My ideal scenario is that she breaks the record, then misses one immediately after so she and the team can put it behind her. Worst scenario is that SportsCenter starts covering it. "The Cameron Brink FT watch".
