They could lose every game no team below them is going to catch em breh
This been the case for Miami. They went on a ten game losing streak and was still comfortably the playin. I said they could lose the rest of the game this season and still make the playin.

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.
Ended up being a great trade. OKC doesn't win the title without Caruso. He had plenty of massive moments in the postseason.

I still like Giddey. Bulls about to give him an extension?

His defense is still hella shaky and his shot is so-so but he's got talent. I'm not sure how good your team is if he's one of your 2 or 3 best guys but he's a player
Aside from his defense, for me, his inability to really be a threat from 3 off the dribble will always limit the offenses he's running. I can't really think of any other lead creator/ball handler that's the driving force for their team's offense that doesn't have the pullup 3 or stepback 3 in their offensive bag. While his 3PT% improved in Chicago, the vast majority of his 3PT makes were assisted.

I spoke about it a lot, but he really has to be a GREAT catch and shoot 3 point shooter to maximize a roster around him.

yall don't fukk with The Giddler?

He was ballin.
Bulls are a team with absolutely no direction and I'm not with committing $30M+ to Giddey as the best player on the team. He killed towards the end of last year, but we've seen plenty of guys go off when teams that their foot off the pedal, especially when they're in a contract year. The team that just won it all deemed him unplayable in last year's playoffs.

He definitely showed improvement, but we really don't have anyone else.

Matas looks like he might be a hooper, really high potential, showed some really good shyt.

Coby is likely being traded with the Giddey extension, he's due a major deal next year. And as the way the Bulls operate, we'll trade him for shyt because we always wait until our assets value is the lowest to move him. We traded Zach, Caruso and Demar the last year and got zero first round picks.

Patrick Williams is a bust.

Dalen Terry is a scrub.

Ayo is solid.

He's got big limitations which requires a specific type of team built around him and I don't think he's good enough to do that for.

That 30 million will look cheap in 2 to 3 years.
