WIZARDS-KINGS-ROCKETS (although possible only after Jan 15., but that could give Kings enough time to assess this seasons prospects, and also to see Beals condition)
Checked and salaries work on RealGM Trade Checker
WIZARDS:
In: Cousins, Gay, McLemore, Brewer, B. Brown (waive),
Out: Beal, Porter, Gortat, 2017 pick, 2019 pick (lotto protected)

In: Beal, Porter, 2017 HOU, 2017 WAS, 2019 WAS (lotto protected)
Out: Cousins, Gay, McLemore
ROCKETS:
In: Gortat
Out: Brewer, B. Brown, 2017 pick
WIZARDS add another true superstar along Wall, one who complements him excellently, and add coupe veteran pieces around them to ride out the season the best they can and that could possibly be resigned if no other better option is there (Gay, McLemore).
Ideally, they clear out some salaries and are a important factor in 2017 deep FA, where they assemble a contender caliber team around which keeps Cousins in Washington for good.
Wall-Oubre-Gay-Morris-DMC (Burke-McLemore-Brewer-Nicholson-Mahinmi)
KINGS don't go in full rebuild and it reflects Viveks wish for them to stay competitive amid moving to new Arena, but at the same time they retool and add youth and potential, along some picks. Besides, Beal and Porter are very talented players at the positions they are weak, and since Kings are probably the most unstable franchise in the league, having them under control for five years is a plus. Gay and McLemore are FAs at the end of the season and they won't stay in Sacramento. Kings form a nice foreground for a quick rebuild around young core in place and with three draft picks in upcoming, deep draft (also, they get pick in 2019, when they have to give their pick to 76-ers).
Collison-Beal-Porter-Skal-WCS (Lawson-Richardson-Casspi-Toliver-Koufos/PapaG)
ROCKETS add what they currently lack the most and thats a legit all round two way big man, capable of scoring, passing and defending, who would really fit well in their system and complement more raw Clint Capela. They also ship out bad Brewer contract, which in turn leaves them with an interesting core of Harden, Gordon, Beverly, Ariza, McDaniels, Dekker, Anderson, Capela, Harrell and Gortat, along 10-15 mil in cap to add another solid piece in FA.
Harden-Gordon-Ariza-Anderson-Gortat (Beverly-McDaniels-Dekker-Harrell-Capela)
This move might make sense for all teams because it gives Wizards fantastic combo of Wall-DMC with potential to assemble really good team around them.
Kings stay competitive as much as they are now, but get younger and more controlled players, along several draft picks.
Houston give up this years pick to add a good piece at the position they need who can go a long way into bumping their PO chances, but also have a good position before next years FA.
I know its your teams players but look at it from this point of view; would you take a package of Beal, Porter and two lotto protected picks for Wall? Probably not.
Wall and Cousins are worth More than that and we aren't even accounting for Gay and McLemore's value.

Actually I'm a Bulls fans.
And it is two unprotected picks this year, and lotto protection in 2019.
1. Sorry about the mix up with your team
2. I didn't realize only the 2019 was protected, my bad.
3. Still don't like the trade as I feel those picks aren't worth enough to close the gap.
