I could deal with the "Warriors".

It wouldn't be the worst thing in the world. That and maybe going with the spear logo on the helmets.

Washington cannot have an NBA name, this is a current unwritten rule of American Sports.

Just an unwritten rule that I have noticed really has never been broken. I also feel that nba has more regional names then the nfl. Maybe Washington generals...

That's sort of what my old high school did. Apparently back in the day the logo/mascot was of a Native American but when they decided to stop using that they switched to a Robin Hood-looking guy or a knight, which make sense for the Sherwood Warriors.
