Who Should The Wizards Hire As Their Next General Manager?
After a disappointing season which ended in missing the NBA Playoffs and the NBA Play-In Tournament, the Wizards had to make a decision that they probably didn’t want to make. The Wizards front office decided to part ways with Tommy Sheppard who has spent a nice amount of time in Washington. The season was a disaster and someone had to answer to the failures of the team. With this vacancy, the Washington Wizards are eagerly looking for the perfect candidate to replace Tommy Sheppard. The question remains is this: Who is the perfect candidate to be the next General Manager of the Washington Wizards?”
Tommy Sheppard Released As Wizards President and General Manager
While the Wizards season on the court ended prematurely, the show must go on for the Wizards. They are watching other teams lose in the playoffs and thinking which players could help them next season. They may be wondering which may be searching for a fresh start across the board.
One team that has had a lot of success over the years are the Golden State Warriors. Their General Manager Bob Myers went on to say a few years ago that the Warriors were lightyears ahead the rest of the league. After saying that, the Warriors went on to win four NBA Titles. The reason behind their success is him.
The Warriors already had Steph Curry in place when Bob Myers became their GM. However, Myers was able to complete the puzzle as he drafted important pieces to that team such as Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, and even Jordan Poole. The man simply has an eye for talent. He was also able to trade for guys like Andre Iguodala and Kevin Durant who both won NBA Final MVP Awards.
With the Warriors being eliminated in the NBA Playoffs by the LA Lakers, there is a lot of uncertainty for the future of the franchise from the players, coaches, and GM Bob Myers. With the NBA Lottery coming up, we know the NBA Draft is soon to follow. The Wizards will need to fill in this void before the draft begins. Bob Myers is the perfect candidate to fill this position.
