Message: [QUOTE="diggerfoot, post: 4450419, member: 1673"] I feel like this is a subject we have agreed upon before but, at my age, who remembers. I might say that Jefferson had a higher overall value as a defender because of her ability to play the passing lanes, but no one was a better one on one defender than Faris, for two reasons. One of those reasons you already gave, C. Gray, who by the ene of the game was a point guard avoiding the ball. Never saw anything quite like that. The other reason was Alyssa Thomas, the power forward for Maryland that Faris guarded that same year. Thomas fared a little better than Gray, I think she got something like 8 points and 10 rebounds, but Faris held her below her averages and clearly frustrated her as well. Whether facing the best point guard or best power forward, both of whom are near unguardable at times in the WNBA, Faris could make life miserable for them. [/QUOTE]
