How do we make that happen?
Chicago wanted at minimum 2 FRP for Caruso at the TDL.
I don't think he's worth that. Chicago is going to try and retain DeRozan too, so it's not like they're trying to bottom out, despite it making the most sense for them to do.
This summer will their price on Caruso change? I don't think by much. So I don't think he's a real target for the Mavs unless we want to spend our last 2 firsts for the significant future on him.
OR we could go for Thybulle who is the closest (if not better) than Caruso on defense, without an offensive game, younger, and is cheaper.
Don't get me wrong if I could choose between the two its Caruso. But factoring cost to acquire I don't think there's a way.
