Dwight Howard suffered a bruised lip and bloody mouth that required three stitches due to an elbow from David Lee on Monday. Howard also received a technical foul and a personal foul on the play.

"He got away with a shot," Howard said. "I will remember this game. I will remember that shot. He said he wasn't trying to do it. You can look at the play and see it for yourself. I will take care of it later."

Howard avoided retaliating in the second half of the game to avoid a second technical.
