Dwight Howard sounds like he's sick of being a nice guy. The Orlando Magic center told NBA.com that he wants to play with guys who are as focused and committed to winning as he is, and that if they don't win it all next season things will have to change for him. The Magic looked poised to be an Eastern Conference powerhouse after getting to the NBA Finals in 2009, but have had two disappointing postseasons in a row, and could risk losing their franchise player next offseason. 

According to

NBA.com

:

"I want to win a championship," the All-Star center said. "I think the owners have to really know that. That's been my goal and my mission since I've been in the NBA -- to win a championship. I don't have side goals or agendas. My main goal is to win a championship. I want to have 14 other guys who feel the same way." Asked if the Magic have that now, he said, "It's off and on. Sometimes guys are there whole-heartedly and then sometimes I've had teammates allow people getting in their ears and things like that effect the way that they play and approach the game." ------------------------ And if the Magic do not win the 2012 championship and the personality of the roster stays the same? "Then things have to change," Howard told NBA.com.
