Trade & FA 2024-25:

But I also don't think Detroit really wants to trade Grimes after less than 20 games with him. So I suppose I'm reaching your same conclusion, just for different reasons.

I think THJ+2nd for space, trade Green+2025 for Avdija, and then resign DJJ so he's our main POA defender off the bench is a fantastic summer.
 

That feels more realistic.  I'll join mvossman in buying Smitty a beer if the deal ends up being THJ/2nd for Grimes (maybe two beers).

If I have Avdija as a starter, I don't really care if I have Green or Jones coming off the bench.  Your use of Green to Washington makes more sense than THJ to Washington, so if you can also do the deal with Detroit to retain DJJ, I'm in.

Green and 2025 for Avdija probably isn't enough.  Would you be willing to add 2031?  Unprotected?  Top 3 protected?  Unprotected Pick Swap?  I think that gets you more into the conversation.  If you watched the Marks video, this is the kind of thing he was advocating.  Salary plus both picks for a real difference maker.
