The Suns are based in Phoenix, Arizona. They are members of the Pacific Division of the Western Conference, and the only team in their division not to be based in California. The Suns nickname was among 28,000 entries that were formally chosen in a "Name the Team" contest. Suns was preferred over Scorpions, Rattlers, Thunderbirds, Wranglers, Mavericks, Tumbleweeds, Mustangs and Cougars. The franchise owns the NBA's fourth-best all-time winning percentage, winning 55 percent of its games, as of the end of the 2012–2013 season. They made nine trips to the Western Conference Finals, and advanced to the NBA Finals in 1976 and 1993. As a result, based on their all-time win-loss percentage, the Suns are the most winning franchise to have never won an NBA Championship.
