Lakers: Caruso+R O'Neal
Bulls:Dinwidie (expiring)
Nets:Russell+Ball+ 2rnd pick LA

Lakers robbing the Nets and I can't see Chicago giving away Caruso just to dump Ball.

The Nets should aim on the 2025 free agency (Giannis, Tatum, mitchell, . ), when Simmons expires. They're nog going to extend O'Neal and Dinwidie. And they can propably flip Russell for another asset next year.

The offer for Caruso is a little low, but i don't see a team giving up a first for him. This gives the bulls a chance to sign a free agent next year.

I don't think the bulls a super desperate for cap space, Lonzo expires in 2025,which is a much better fa class. Caruso ain't valueless you can at least get like 3 seconds for him.

04 Feb 2024 04:00:42
You think DLo + a second gets Caruso + O'neal? LOL!

Can easily get a first for Caruso, he's just shy of 10 mil for next year and several teams would want him.

04 Feb 2024 08:24:22
Why does everyone thinks that Lakers players or assets are valueless. Ohh maybe they hate the lakers.

04 Feb 2024 12:04:14
The Lakers have 4 assets that have the value of a 1st or more, and one of them is their own 1st in 2029. DLO is negative. If they're not going to include any of those 4 assets in trade, the only way they can acquire a good player is if that player is overpaid or has issues like Miles Bridges.

How is DLO negative? His contract isn't bad. He is not a bad player. Defense can be improved though.

04 Feb 2024 21:14:32
Who would want to pay him almost 19 mil next year?

05 Feb 2024 01:00:57
@Psiphon. Welcome to a market economy. The MARKET determines the "value" of the player you are trading. So far, no one in the market values DLo enough to give the Lakers a "valuable" player in return. This is true for all the Lakers players not named Lebron, AD & Reeves.

Thank you Fred and Nightcap for your response, I truly understand, coming from a Celtics and Kings fan. We'll see what happens at the deadline.

Austin Reeves is overrated, defense is as bad as Dlo, doesn’t have assists like Dlo . You don’t think Dlo can get 20 points a night if he looked to score more. They like Reeves because Lebron likes him, not saying he’s a bad player. But to say he’s untouchable to me is ridiculous.

Well austin reaves might be overrated but is not horribly paid.
