Caruso s role in the Thunder is like the old fish in the 2012 finals

6:09pm, 8 June 2025Basketball

Caruso's first contract in the NBA was actually given by the Thunder, but after a month of trial training, the Thunder gave up on him before the start of the season.

That was 2016.

This is a bit like a good horse and a good horse is back.

Caruso this season is not showing any signs of the regular season, but in the playoffs, he has a showdown and no longer plays:

plays the Grizzlies in the first round, averaging 7 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists, and 2.3 steals! 5 of 13 three-pointers.

played against the Nuggets in the semi-finals, averaging 10.4 points and 1.6 steals per game, 7 games, and 15 of 35 three-pointers!

The Western Conference Finals still had 1.6 steals and 7 of 17 three-pointers!

People are very forgetful. During the Bulls' two years, one defense at one time and two defense at one time! The steal rate is the best in the league! !

Moreover, Caruso is 31 years old, the oldest in this team.

Let’s talk about old fish.

The thunder in 2012 was the oldest, 38 years old.

In March 2012, the Lakers suddenly sent Lao Yu, the head of the company, to the Rockets in exchange for Brother Cialis!

Then the Rocket cut the old fish.

The Thunder coveted Lao Yu's playoff experience and big heart traits and immediately got it.

in the first round of the playoffs, he averaged 24 minutes per game, made 5 of 8 three-pointers, and had a total shooting percentage of 58%

semi-finals. Facing the old master Lakers, Lao Yu couldn't bear to be beaten on the court, but off the court, he whispered to the coach's seat: "It's time to adjust this way, they will do this..."

The Spurs are also the most familiar opponent of Lao Yu, and they whispered again...

The last round of his life series was the 2014 West Finals Spurs. He was 40 years old, averaged 16 minutes per game, and made 8 of 17 three-pointers!
