    We should of never let Caruso go.
  • @mrvxg4820
    I really hope Zo is able to make a full comeback.
  • @stampscapes
    Lavine almost seems like one of those players where the Bulls would have to give up more for someone to take him off their hands with that terrible contract.
  • Lonzo's best "where he was as a player" high was 63 regular games in a season. His best season for stats -- even when averaging nearly 32 minutes a game as a starter -- was 14.6 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 5.7 assist; with .378% from three and .781 from the FT line. His January 2022 injury was over two years ago and he hasn't played since. Instead of seeking a Lonzo reunion, let Max Christie get out and run! In his first two NBA seasons, Max already has a career average of .378% from the three and a .806 FT%.
  • I'd take Lonzo for a Vet min if bought out but most of those Bulls players are on AWFUL contracts!
  • @BallGuy-pm8pz
    Lonzo's only has 1 year on his contract so need trade for him if the Bulls buy him out. And there is no risk taking on a Zo in a vet min from a buyout. No risk at all to see if it works since it's only 1 year. If not the Lakers, other teams are already salivating over a buyout including Denver, Bucks, Spurs, Warriors, etc. If Zo comes back healthy, Zo is like a Derrick White but a better passer. He is a Caruso level defender. In fact, with the Bulls, Zo would have been the first guard in NBA history to have a season with 2 steals and 1 block.
  • @sootedninjas
    forget Lavine. 2nd rate player for $40+ million that's a no brainer hard pass
  • @DaNewWaveLee
    Caruso is at his highest in trade value while Giddey is probably at his lowest. It will be a fair trade.
  • @domp8172
    With Giddey are Bulls going younger however, in that regard all Lakers have to offer is Lewis, or JHS and draft capital, We barely have enough salary to get to Lavine's contract let alone Vuc or any other Bulls players.
  • The problem with the lakers is AD want to play the 4 and that Lebron spot. Lebron is a liability on defense and definitely can’t guard 3s. So the lakers are stuck just trying to sell tickets
  • If Lonzo Ball can get to 75% of what he used to be I would gladly trade him for D'Angelo Russell. He is just a flat-out better fit for our team
  • @maxcady5287
    Damn that we can not get Lonzo if they bought him out... signing by a minium wave is ok, nothing to lose but by trading, too risky.
  • @allgood21c
    I hope Lonzo can come back as well, but realistically, I think his knee is done. I think it's maybe a 50/50 chance he ever plays another MNBA game. He'll probably have to focus on walking without a cane in the future rather than returning to the MNBA. I certainly hope I'm wrong.
  • @BallGuy-pm8pz
    I know Zo hopes the Bulls do a buyout because he can move on as well and pick the team he wants to play with. There will be a lot of teams vying for him in a buyout and I can guarantee that since it's no risk to try him out. The Bulls will be paying most of his salary. I know teams right now waiting for a buyout. They can get Zo for a discount. Who wouldn't want to try out a ball moving 26 year old?
  • JSM why does boston able to have 4 guys with 30M+??? Brown 60M, Tatum 50M, Jrue 32M and White 31M
  • Please lakeshow get zo back he is a better two way player like he was before or getting dejonte murray will make a better backcourt alongside AR15 is an upgrade and get a better Defensive Ancor Big Man asap
