One thing I like about Caruso is how he commits to his double teams. Too often the doubler helping off a man in the corner is tentative, which can allow the ballhandler to get the ball over for an uncontested corner 3. If helper is going to leave the corner man, you've got to come full bore, to make that pass very difficult. I also love how Caruso always moves his feet.

You see LaVine and DeRozan doing this a lot, staying in no-man's land where they're not committed to the double but also not in a position to recover to their man. I totally agree, when you bring a double you need to come hard and get ready to recover quickly.
