Dwight Howard is the most disrespected superstar in NBA history and it's not even close
3x Defensive Player of Year. 8x All-Star. Led the league in rebounds 5 times. Led the league in blocks 3 times. Carried a team with zero second options to the NBA Finals in 2009. Put up 20 and 10 for the better part of a decade. By pure production he belongs in every conversation about the best centers ever, yet he gets left out of the top 5 at his position while guys with shorter primes and worse numbers get praised endlessly. The league literally changed rules to slow him down and people still act like he was just an athletic big. Shaq got the same treatment and at least he has 4 rings to shut people up. Dwight has nothing but stats and disrespect. Also didn't make the 75th anniversary team.
