... Brian Schmitz of the Orlando Sentinel: "As if the loss to a reigning lottery team wasn't bad enough, Orlando Magic center Dwight Howard said it appeared his team "quit" during the dreary proceedings. 'We haven't had a game like this in a long time. We'd miss shots and guys would hang their heads,' Howard said. 'I don't think we should quit in a game. Seems like, as a team, we shouldn't quit.' It's one thing for the Magic to be routed by the Oklahoma City Thunder 102-74 on Sunday night at Ford Center. It's another thing for Howard to suggest the Magic (5-2) retired ...
