Lakers get Caruso, Vucevic
Lakers get a starting 5 with these 2 and Reaves, LeBron, Davis.
Vucevic mostly plays backup 5 to Davis.
Bulls get Rui, Vando, JHS
Bulls get a lot younger, they move out the 30+ guys and bring in mid 20s wings and a rookie guard.

Re: Bulls-Lakers
I love Caruso, but sold as a Bulls' fan. I think Vuc/AD can play minutes together effectively

Re: Bulls-Lakers
I like it for the Bulls, next start naming who they will find at center. Say they resign Drummond but they need at least one backup besides him.
Rui Vanderbilt Phillips
Williams Craig
a few guys to be signed
White JHS
Dosunmu
that's a team that does well in transition and should be willing to move the ball in the half court

Yeah I was thinking that they may try get that from a LaVine trade.
There are a few C options out there I think even in FA (Hartenstein, Val, Claxton, etc). Even in this draft you could target Edey at #11.

Re: Bulls-Lakers
Caruso and Vuc are near ideal fits for what LA needs but giving up both Rui and Vando leaves wing depth dangerously weak.
Would Vincent + a pick swap in place of Vando work? What if Gabe went to a 3rd team - like Miami for Robinson but still get pick swap from LA?

Re: Bulls-Lakers
Is Vuc good enough on defense is my question?
We need a 4/5 who can bang with Jokic a but, but also defend the permieter a bit

Towns did, why can't Vuc hold his own?

Re: Bulls-Lakers
I'm intrigued, I could get behind this and it would be even better if it lead to a DeRozan sign and trade somewhere.

Re: Bulls-Lakers
What would Chicago want in return for Caruso only? I'm not sure I want to add Vuc's salary.

I believe Bulls' fans have been expecting 2 FRPs in exchange for him since that's what was "reported" before the deadline. I think they'd settle for 1 pretty good FRP plus matching salary.
