I agree they have to change something, but why are they needing to please Wall? he's not going anywhere anytime soon and they'd laugh in his face if he requested a trade.

How is a Porter for Cousins swap doable?
How closely do the salaries have to match? i would think we are the ones that would need to give up a pick for this to happen.

If they need to be close, then Washington has to include someone else, either Jason Smith or the Morris twin. Smith would be a wash as far as sending them more for him, but if we got Morris i'd imagine we'd need to give them something else in return.

The Tax Apron will be about $127 million. The Wizards current salary commitments are $124 million. Porter + Smith is $31.5. Boogie's max starts at $30.3. That trade reduces Washington's salary by $1 million so they are still under the Apron after. If they don't pay Boogie the full max you might be able to do a straight trade of Porter for Cousins.

How much do you think Washington would be willing to pay Boogie? Porter makes 26 mil next season.
