Proposed trade from Bleacher Report



Known Basketball Savants at Bleacher Report propose great trades every off season…or so they think…I rarely ever see one. This is a resounding “No” for me dawg. Points for effort I guess.

  1. this is the definition of bailing out a team with a bleak future and no identity, we shouldn’t have to trade anyone as we already have a really good roster and we’re only going to get better.

  2. This team has a hole when it comes to big-wing defenders like we saw against Boston.

    Caruso (although he’s a valuable player) does not fill that…and trading Jarace removes a possible solution for that.

    And for those reasons, I am out.

    I like Caruso a ton, but trading players with 10 seasons left under team control for a player with 1 season left doesn’t make a ton of sense.

  5. B/R trade suggestions are always such trash.

    You can tell whoever comes up with them only watches the brand name teams from major markets.

  6. BlueCollarGoldSwaggr

    This is an all-in move you make if you think the team is on the cusp of a title. It would make sense in combination with another all-in win-now trade for a star wing, on its own it doesn’t make sense for all the reasons laid out by the other comments on this.

    Ijax ain’t the best, but with only him, Myles, and Jalen giving us size on the floor, we’ll need to get someone who can at least match his specific skillset. Not to mention what trading a promising young player should be able to yield as well

    We’d have the 2 of the 3 coldest white boys in the NBA

    This trade is beyond embarrassing for the author.

    Guess it’s time to unsubscribe until next season

    This is tough since I love Jarace but Caruso is like a dream addition.

  12. LordQuest1809

    I’m still gonna bank on walker becoming at minimum a solid piece. Great physical skill set and high BBIQ. I’ll let it pan out

  13. CohenCaveWaits

    I wouldn’t trade either of those guys they’re on rookie deals.

  14. jcwillia1

    I’m a kinda sorta bulls fan and Caruso is amazing on defense but is sort of useless on the offensive end. He would break basically everything that your team is about. Doesn’t make sense to me.

  15. JakeTiny19

    I do like Caruso , and normally I would want him. But we need more SF than anything. Plus we’re already pretty deep at the guard positions we don’t need another one

  16. Nope. A wing defender is more valuable than Caruso and Jackson is going to be the primary back up 5.

  17. aliencardboard

    They should trade Jackson, but Walker was a top 10 pick. As much as I love Obi, I’d rather see them develop Walker. I’d deal Obi and Jackson for a good SG.

  18. JakeLake720

    The Bulls wouldn’t do this anyway. Caruso is an All-NBA defender & one of the best role players in the game.

  19. LowTSurvivor

    Honestly, if there was a chance to keep Jalen, I’d be open to this. Caruso is goood

  20. brutallyhonestB

    Please do NOT do this. PLEASE. Caruso is not our guy.

  21. NaptownSensations317

    Why the eff is this considered a good trade? Mind baffling 

  22. Caruso is good but tbh I think this is just a low effort article because they mocked that same move before the trade deadline. Probably just recycling it instead of taking the time to come up with something new.

  23. MKEHOME91

    This is stupidest trade I’ve seen in a while

  24. No thanks…

    I swear BR is just a bunch of people sitting around smoking JUULs and publishing the first mental bowel movement they come up with.

  25. MartyMcFlysDown

    Once again. We are a feeder team to help larger market teams out of shit contracts.

  26. Caruso is SOOOO overrated. Wouldn’t trade for him straight up with Ijax alone. He does nothing that would help this team win that Nembhard / Nesmith / TJM / Mathurin don’t already do at a higher level. Hard pass for me.
