Will you make room for Dwight?

Assuming Dwight Howard will receive a loyalty rating of "Not Loyal" in 2K13, he'll be a free agent when the first offseason rolls around in nearly every Association.

So, in your first offseason will you:

1) Clear enough cap space to try to sign Dwight Howard?

2) Clear enough cap space to try to sign Dwight Howard, then trade him?

3) Stick to your original Association plans and ignore Dwight Howard?


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Personally, in every franchise I have I'm going to try to assemble young talent and clear enough cap space for him.

Teams that I'll likely start an Association with and attempt to land Dwight:

Hornets - D12, Anthony Davis, Eric Gordon, Austin Rivers, Ryan Anderson

Kings - D12, DeMarcus Cousins, Thomas Robinson, Tyreke, Thornton, Jimmer, etc.

Timberwolves - The idea of pairing D12 with Kevin Love is enticing. They are the perfect marriage in the low post.

Warriors - I'd have to unload the contracts of Bogut/Lee/Biedrins/Jefferson. If I could turn Andrew Bogut, David Lee and draft picks (depends how valuable they are) into K-Love, then dump Biedrins and Jefferson on a team with cap space... I could be looking at a lineup of D12, K-Love, Harrison Barnes, Klay Thompson and Steph Curry.

An even better front court! Cousins can slide over to PF and hit that 15 foot midrange jumper.

Being a Magic fan, whether he's on the team or not when the game comes out, I will be trading him for a full rebuild. Don't want anything to do with the guy.

Re: Will you make room for Dwight?

How is he unloyal? He opted into his contract to allow the Magic to get something in return for him. He didn't leave them out to dry. He could have easily opted out and left them with nothing.

He wanted to be traded to Brooklyn -- Orlando didn't take a great deal IMO -- and now he'll leave for nothing next year or they'll trade him for basically nothing.

Anyway, I wouldn't make room for him -- mainly because I'd use him like Orlando -- Dwight, go stand under the rim, we're going to let our guards put it up

He'll be unloyal because that's the only way 2K can make it so he won't rejoin the Magic.
