giddey is supposed to get paid soon

and they traded caruso because he had to get paid soon

like get some draft picks at least to even pretend you care about youth lol they got offered a lottery pick this same week ffs and all chicago wanted to do was kick cans down the road
I mean if Giddey shows out this season then pay him. He’s 21 lol.

Again the only problem is we’re not gonna have any picks from this. Because if Giddey is ass this upcoming season and we don’t pay him we get nothing out of this long term

The bulls shouldn’t want to pay Caruso. He’s like 30 and misses half the season. Of course he’s amazing when he’s playing but why should we pay for an excellent role player big time money when we out here fighting for the 9th seed

Bulls could very well be looking at paying Giddey, Coby and Ayo between 20M to 30M a year within the next 2 to 3 years.

If Giddey's the trash player the NBA universe thinks he is, shouldn't it be a struggle for him to get paid?

Better question: If Giddey's in this draft, where would you slot him?

dumb ass bulls couldn't squeeze any picks out of a team that has like a million picks :snoop:
They got a player who is much younger, more versatile, and more talented. He’s still the same age as guys who will be drafted this year and he has already proven he can play in the league. Bulls won this trade.

I think it's a win/win.

OKC got an all NBA defender who shoots 40% from three for a guy who really didn't fit with their best player that they kinda had to move.

Bulls get a young guy with a lot of upside.
