Dwight Howard is a top-75 player in NBA history. Hell, he may even be a top-50 player in NBA history, but not according to the panel of players, media and other league figures that decided which players made it onto the league’s 75th Anniversary Team.
Howard, an eight-time All-Star, three-time Defensive Player of the Year and, most recently, an NBA champion, was left off of the team that was released last month in what can only be described as a comical oversight.
Understandably, Howard was upset. But he wasn’t surprised, as he told Taylor Rooks during their recent live interview on the Bleacher Report app:
Rooks: I want you to tell me in as much detail as possible, the day that list came out, when you saw it, where you were.
