BREAKING: Thunder Make Shocking TRADE - Josh Giddey Gone… 

I'm kinda sad seeing Giddey leave OKC. Gonna miss his infamous inbound passes.

Man, such an elite acquisition. We’ll have to pay him $80,000,000/4 years, but it’ll likely be front loaded. Look at what Boston just did, that’s the blueprint. You can’t beat them with isolation ball and high ball screens because they’re able to switch 1-4 with ease. Notice how few lobs they gave up to Dallas. I feel like this has the potential to be our equivalent of the Derrick White trade. Offensively, I love it as well. Shooting 41% from three on high volume in Chicago is legitimately impressive. Who was setting him up? Coby White? DeMar DeRozan? Caruso is a really good spot up shooter, but he’s also shown signs of shooting off of movement. He can attack closeouts and he’s a super high IQ player. He’s not going to initiate the offense, but he’s going to make quick, smart decisions with the ball. Woj mentioned that we want to use Chet as a playmaking hub more going forwards, and that’s going to be insane. Think back to the blueprint, and how Porzingis is able to absolutely abuse mismatches in the mid post? That’s Chet’s next step, and he’s already a more talented playmaker than KP has ever been. A+ trade.

For those who disagree with this trade, please consider 1. This is an upgrade on offense and defense 2. This isn’t the only trade that will happen before the season, so chill. 3. There is still time and room for other trades, just relax.

I’m so stoked about this because Caruso is a proven playoff riser and has championship experience.

Thanks for the corporate update!

We need to add a Lauri or Og anunoby. We need someone who can score without holding the ball, bring Caruso off the bench.

Dang I was shocked by this one sam is the best GM EVER 🐐

Man… this trade is insane!!!!! Not what we exactly needed but upgrade. We need score, we already have dort & Wallace on defense!! Not a big fan but I think it’s an upgrade, we need OFFENSE!

We are crazy stacked at guard now. I love the addition of Caruso though. If we can somehow get Markenen and a servicible back up big from the draft, we should have the second best odds to win the title next year. Thunder up!

Why trade for Caruso, when we could've gotten Thompson,or if we was going to trade giddy then it should've been for mikal bridges or markenning, this isn't a good trade compared who we could've gotten for giddy

As much as I want a big, I also want a more score-worthy, more aggressive guard/shooting guard

Zac Edat THUNDER UP

Caruso has been in trades for years with the balls as 1st round pick for caruso

Omg I said two days ago trade 5 2nd round picks for Caruso lol

great video most people had the take thunder rob bulls i hope your right about more to come they should draft jdubs brother and sign valenchunes LOL

I think this is good I like Alex Caruso. I just think he fit better with us

Sam presti is mvp for this one. ThunderUP

Yeah but we aint sneakin up on anybody this next year

I may be in the minority but I hate this trade We already have Casen Wallace on a rookie scale deal. Why not give up the 12th pick and Osumane Deing and get somebody to play the 4 which is what we need. He’s also not playmaker which we need for when Shai comes off the bench

Dudes not a more reliable offensive player bro he's a career 7 pts a game guy last yr was his career yr avg 10 while he did shoot over 40 last yr from the 3 hes 30 so to me hrs not an upgrade offensively now on D he's definitely an upgrade Giddey was never gonna be able to grow here now with how the team evolved I hated the pick in 21 then grew to love Giddey to be honest but I just think we could of gotten more for a 21 yr old that is probably gonna be an all star someday soon especially in Chicago he's getting the keys to run that offense

You better hope caruso can increase his rebounding. Or they draft someone who can, or okc fans are going to be complaining about something new.

okc just lost a young bright core
