“Buddy Hield is tailor-made for Alvin Gentry’s offense. He’s going to be raining threes instantly. I love the pick,” CBS Sports Network host Adam Schein enthusiastically declared on his daily TV show Friday. “Teaming him with a freak like Anthony Davis? This is awesome. If you love basketball, if you love sports, you’ve got to love the Pelicans... This is going to be an incredible 1-2 punch for a long time in the NBA.”
Among the countless hours of post-draft analysis since Thursday’s 2016 NBA Draft, Schein may have been the most bombastic and adamant in his assessment of the brand-new “Buddy and Brow” duo, but he’s far from the only one who sees the potential for big things from the pair.
