Message: [QUOTE="bballnut90, post: 2699319, member: 2117"] I'd say Shepard is hands down a better passer than Collier despite Pheesa having more assists and a better A/TO ratio. Rewatch the NCAA tournament. She's also better at creating her shot in the post too. I think Shepard's game translates better as a 4 than Collier's does. She's stronger, a better banger inside but can also step out and facilitate the offense from 15-20 feet, or knock down the open jumper. Collier has all the skills needed to be a good 4, but is a little undersized at 6-1, where Shepard is 6-4 and has brute strength. Again, different players with different skill sets, but I think Shepard is more unique as a prospect and has pro skills that can make her standout in the W. I also think she has more upside than Collier due to her relatively late start playing for a good coach. If she went to ND from the get go, I think she'd be a couple steps ahead of where she is now.
