    Bulls fan coming in peace. Y'all are SO lucky to have this man. He embodies everything we value as Chicago bulls fans: hustle, grit, heart, relentless. He also really upped his 3 point shooting. You'll see but he's easily one of if not the best POA defender in the league and can definitely guard 1 - 4 and can slow down or strip 5s well. He is an amazing communicator and helps pick up guys when they're lost and will save so many plays. His biggest risk is injury cause he plays so hard. I hope he has a ton of success with y'all, gonna miss seeing him dominate elite offensive players on the defensive end

    Bulls fan here. Yall gonna love Alex Caruso. The man works hard everynite and is one of the best players at filling holes ive ever seen. He can do some of everything, and his defensive prowse is insane.
    Gonna really miss A.C.
    Id go as far as saying he will be the guy that helps yall get a title.
    Best wishes to A.C. amd also to OKC, an orginization i admire and have great respect for.

      Presti sure robbed the dumb ass Bulls GM. LoL.
      Arturas couldnt even get Prestis to let go of just one of his 40 draft picks, not even a second rounder.
      Bulls GM Arturas is a sucker.
      As a Bulls fan I am disgusted.
      We just gave up our best defender, our best glue guy, and the heart of our team for a giddy, and didn't even get a single draft pick.
      Wow.
      Caruso will be missed.
      Yall lucky.
      Sucks being a Bulls fan.

    What a pick up for OKC. You need a guy like this the a Caldwell -Popes, Derrick Whites, Dru Holidays. Alex Caruso is a huge pick up for OKC. They can make it to the Finals now. Okc fans should be very happy. The Lakers was crazy to give up Caldwell Pope and Alex Caruso.

  • @jdh9676
    @jdh9676 Před 7 dny +3

    As a long time Lakers/Bulls fan I was happy when Alex landed on the Bulls because I got to continue to watch him play on one of my two top teams. Now? Well I can comfortably say Okc is in my top six teams and I really have no others. Teams I may respect, hate, or be indifferent to? Yes. But none I actively follow or cheer for like my top six. So its great he has once again landed on one I enjoy, can get behind, and follow. I been enjoying his game a long time. When the Lakers chose signing THT over him I knew that was a mistake. But he landed on the Bulls and it was fun watching him grow and develop there. Talk about a grind. They had him starting at PF! When the trade rumors started, early on I recall mention of Okc and thought that would of course be great. But as of late the chatter became about SAC, Spurs, Philly, even the Lakers. Or packaging him up with Zach. So this was a great surprise! I've been following Okc through the rebuild and it's hard to believe just two seasons ago this team was a 24-58 question mark. Now? Wow. Presti has done a great job, coach Daigneault and staff, and all our players of course. Except for Josh. Ha. Just a little humor there to lighten the load🤗Go...Okc. I'm onboard. Unless we're playing The Bulls. The Lakers? We're a joke atm, so sad. And funny. But not in a good way. Please leave Bron! And JJ, too! I also like Miami, Mavs, Spurs. But I won't speak on that. Go THUNDER!😁

    • @Mr12barbluz
      @Mr12barbluz Před 7 dny +2

      He would have been first team but the rules changed. They didn't have to pick guards just top 4 players thus no guards on first team. I think the old rules were more fair.
