For about 30 games.
Trading Hayward for a UFA. And that UFA happens to be Nick Young. Hard to think of something worse.
possible locations for Jefferson. Also, when is he dealt?

Why would it be stupid if they see value in acquiring a low post player in Jefferson? He's flawed but 18-9 guys don't grow on trees and they may see some very good value in him, despite what we and many others see in him. Trading Lewis may also clear room for Vesley to play more. Just a thought. I'm trying here.
Like I said, the trade is a bit spurious and favored toward Washington. They could add something of value.
I also would require Young to extend. He's pissed about his $3.7mm deal with Washington and the CBA. Great opportunity IMO.
You're also not valuing the experience our youngs would get and the better draft pick we'd end up with as high as I am. I'm sick of limbo. It's time to go OKC for a year or two.
You would actually want Young to extend? Burks will be better.

Ah, so they can go from 10 wins to maybe 15. Great value, there. Lewis is only averaging 26 minutes. Leaves plenty of time for a rookie to play. Lewis has only played 29 minutes in the past 5 games. Trading Lewis WON'T clear room for Vesley. They've already done so.

DO NOT WANT NICK YOUNG. Ewwwwwwwwwwww.
I'm sure CJ Miles would love Nick Young here. Target off his back would go squarely on Young.

And yet Jefferson very well could have made the all-star team over Dirk. While you see no value in Jefferson, other people do. Maybe they don't do it now, but if they get the 1st pick and draft Davis from UK, they may just consider acquiring Big Al to play the 4, knowing they have a stud defender behind him. They may like the idea of a Wall, Young, Vesely, Jefferson, Davis starting five.
Stop pissing on my parade.

Washington isn't going to give an unprotected first round pick for Jefferson. Jefferson has value, but the production isn't worth the draft pick when financials are equal. Jefferson can net late first rounders.
Fine then I'm throwing in them taking Devin Harris to even it out.

Well, one thing I considered putting, but was too lazy to type up, was stating that while they would give us their 1st, they'd get ours. Or really, more specifically, we get the better of both picks no matter what. They'd get the lower. Could be a nominal difference. It could be a ten spot difference. Seems reasonable for both sides in my estimation.
This trade is so much more than straight basketball value.
They would also save $8.3mm or have that much additional to acquire another player this year.
Trading Jeffersos has more potential than doing anything with Lewis.
Jefferson, John Wall, JaVale McGhee for Dwight and Hedo is pretty fair value IMO, and it works in the Trade Machine.
Add enough value going to Utah like Washington's draft pick and make everyone happy.
Washington would have about $15 million to build around Howard.

^^Nick Young is not included b/c he's not available yet and TM has a hard time counting for TPE's.
