Money's not terrible. But would have been much more comfortable with 3 years as opposed to 4.

We have Theis’s Bird rights so we can still retain him too.

Re: Bulls sign Alex Caruso - 4 years, $37 million
I’m okay with Caruso. He plays hard and gets after it on defense. But for $37m over 4 years…not sure about that.
AKME got to go

Looks like this was Plan B after Rose.

Caruso has been the Ga-RIMEY-est dude in the West for like 3yrs running. I will take him.
That is a bit of an overpay but the dude is a legit professor at the Adrian Griffin School of OG Hustle.

I actually like this a lot. Strong shooter, tough as nails, great D, underrated offense. He’s basically Temple plus. Sato and Temple just became Lonzo and Caruso. Younger, bigger, and better respectively.

We can still sign theis cause we have his rights
True, forgot about that. I don't hate it because Caruso is solid off the bench. We need to make sure we have size in that front court though.

Can't believe he'd break up the big 3 in LA to come join the Bulls.
In all seriousness though Caruso is a really solid player, 4 years is a bit long but otherwise I am fan of the deal.

Perfect comparison, I'm warming up to this move

Seems like a lot but is pretty similar to McConnell’s contract snd they strike me as similar players, so maybe it’s ok.

Caruso stats per 21 MPG:
6.4ppg, 2.8ast, 1.1stl shooting 40% from 3.
He's 27, so those will be productive years. I like him much better than Sato. Dude's an energy guy on both ends. I think he learned a lot from LBJ. Will be a good role model. He's got good size at 6'4.

It's a pretty cheap deal. I wonder what this means for Coby.HomoSapien wrote:I think I like Caruoso, but I don't know if I like him for $37M.

Caruso was always the dude on the Lakers that stood out to me because of how hard he plays. He'll be a fan favorite easily.
