Stan Van Gundy Sends Dwight Howard Get Well Wishes

Although the two don't get along, you would think that Howard would have the common courtesy to take a fraction of a second to send a 'thanks' in response. Howard, who will most likely be leaving the Magic after this season, has done tremendous things for the franchise, but appears to be leaving on an incredibly sour note. This has become just another chapter in the soap opera that fans and players want to see end.
