He got a head coaching job before Sam Cassell. Sam has been trying for years. Wonder what's up with that.

Clearly harder to get a chance to implement your system when you're dealing with a system.

They couldn't even get the Thunder to throw in a couple of their million draft picks in that deal?

Not sure trading a former 6th pick for Caruso is exactly where you wanted to be but this was a great trade for OKC.

Kinda makes sense for both teams. Caruso only has a year left on his deal, and Giddey is still young and has potential. I'm just surprised that the Bulls didn't get more considering how poorly Giddey looked in the playoffs and how many contending teams would have coveted someone like Caruso.

We had people here who seriously offered Middleton for the same package that Caruso went for.

The Bulls had better offers, but preferred this one. Hence why they suck.
