Where does Dwight play next season?

I'd start a poll, but I'm not really sure what the realistic options are.

Houston is still in the mix, but it sounds pretty unlikely.

I figured that Dallas would make a run, but I'm hearing reports that Dirk may not be down with it.

Who is in the market for Dwight Howard at this time? Of those, who would he be interested in? I can't see him just going to whichever situation pays the most money at this point.

many team are interested in him
problem is the price
he wants the max and we all know nobody is giving him the max
my top 3 list for him are
1. Miami -- Whiteside is leaving and they need a center, Howard is a good option for cheaper price
2. Milwaukee -- they almost traded for him until Howard unwilling to opt in his contract
3. Atlanta -- going back home

I think Portland should take a look at him.

Boston or Dallas make some sense.

If you believe ESPN, they had these teams listed as being on his list of preferred destinations for next summer:

Portland
Milwaukee
Charlotte
Orlando

Thanks for the suggestions.

Added a poll.

Dwight might be interested in Orlando but management here hasnt exactly been tight lipped about not being interested in him

I'm beginning to think he lands in San Antonio if TD retires.

I think he'd help Portland, Charlotte, Milwaukee, Atlanta, and Orlando.

Atlanta's a possibility if they don't retain Horford. Him and Millsap would make for a good front court, he's from the area. Whomever they go with at point guard (Teague or Schroeder) with those two would make for a competitive team.

He'd obviously give Orlando, Charlotte, and Milwaukee defense in the front court that they sorely lack.

Portland needs to upgrade their C from Plumlee.

As long as it is not in a Rockets uniform I could care less.
