Message: [QUOTE="eebmg, post: 2398851, member: 7548"] Definitely agree. Naphessa definitely reminds me of a nose to the grindstone player you can always count on (ie Tim Duncan). I actually think Z is the perfect match for Kevin Durant. There games are very similar and Durant's defense is improving as well now that he is motivated by great players and a team culture to play both sides of the ball. The parallels are actually quite interesting to me. Z wanted to move from a good but pedestrian playing team to the pinnacle of women's basketball where winning is not the only thing but playing a beautiful brand of basketball counts (My theory. No proof) while Kevin Durant did the same in the NBA. I never viewed Durant's move as a move to win championships the easy way but a move where he recognized that GS plays BB the right way and there is real teamwork instead of watching Westbrook play like a Tazmanian Devil.
