Via Tania Ganguli of the Orlando Sentinel:

"Early in the season we all knew it was going to be a roller coaster ride for us," [Dwight] Howard said. "Win a couple games, lose here and there. We understand that. Now we're learning to play with each other to get better going into the playoffs. I think we can get a lot better"

"We're playing pretty good basketball. Hopefully we can continue to keep it up but at the same time stay humble knowing that if we don't play the way we played these last eight games we could slip and lose somewhere."

If the Orlando Magic defeat the Charlotte Bobcats in tonight's game, they will tie a franchise record with nine straight wins, most recently achieved in 2001.
