Resisting night life temptations on the road is a key to success for any professional sports team. And the New York Post suggests the Orlando Magic flunked that test this week.

According to the Post, Magic players partied into the wee hours the night before their 108-86 blowout loss to the Knicks on Wednesday.

The Post says the Magic's Glen Davis and Jason Richardson were spotted in the private wine room of Philippe New York and then got together with Dwight Howard, Chris Duhon and Quentin Richardson at the Greenhouse club. The Post says the Magic players were ordering bottles of champagne and stayed until 3 a.m.

Among the celebrities at Wednesday's blowout were Kate Upton, Jeremy Piven and New York Giants Victor Cruz and Justin Tuck.

The Magic also had a pair of blowout losses on the road in January, by 31 points at Boston and by 26 at New Orleans. Howard had a particularly rocky game against the Knicks, with only 12 points and five rebounds, way under his season averages of 20.9 and 14.5.

"We didn't play as well as we needed to play, but we've got another game Friday," Howard told the Orlando Sentinel, looking forward to (the) game against Dallas. "We've got a chance to make it up. We'll see these guys (the Knicks) next week, so we're going to have a chance to get it back."
