[QUOTE="Longtime fan, post: 4283878, member: 7093"]
I have watched Ice Brady ( tapes of some HS highlights ) and she does have the look of a player who could compete with an all star like Boston.  By this, I mean she has a similar body type, and is supremely gifted as to shooting ability, moving her feet, athleticism, etc. However, it is unrealistic to expect an even match-up in her freshman year ( As an aside, I wonder how Morrow would perform vs Boston ?).   We may learn next year that no-one in the WNBA can match up with Boston, either.   DeBerry, as you point out, will never have the body type to do it.  She might be great nonetheless, but not as a "banger."  So it is more likely that UCONN ( Geno and staff ) will figure out a way to beat SC without having a one on one "neutralizer ."  If, for example, De Berry forces Boston out from under the basket ( due to accurate 12-14 foot shooting ) , that might be a way.  She is supposed to be an excellent passer, which might help free up AZZI and Paige for quality "looks." My point is;  I don't think there is a match-up to Boston that Geno is going to find in the portal.  We have to win some other way. So, in my opinion, if we grab someone from the portal it will likely be a back-up guard.
