If I was an NBA General Manager\u00a0my first item of business would be to draft a shooter.\u00a0 After watching Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors\u00a0be the real difference in their Western Conference Finals win over the Oklahoma City Thunder, the main component that made the Warriors the better team was their outside shooting.\u00a0\u00a0 Those two are not just great shooters, they are master gunners and what championships come from.<\/h5>\n
<\/h5>\n
Now to my point.\u00a0 Buddy Hield, in the mode of Thompson and Curry would be my choice in the upcoming NBA draft.\u00a0 Yes, I understand he will not be the top pick, but for the team that does get him and does not let him slide will be making the correct decision.\u00a0 Hield has enough of what it takes to get open, make the shot, and contribute in a way that brings championships. Mark it down.\u00a0 Buddy Hield is the one.<\/h5>\n
