Dwight Howard has never been known as the one of the smarter guys in the league —- he did skip college you know. But he might have gone over the top with this latest claim. He went to Twitter for a Q&A with his fans and this is how he started it off.

Well, this is just wrong. There's at least three other guys who could claim that title before James Harden. Maybe guys like Chris Mullin, David Robinson, and Bill Russell would have a good shot at that title. Apparently, Howard is entitled to his own opinion though.
@JMKaram I know who they are. But that's my opinion. I'm entitled to it.

And of course Howard backtracked once he realized the mistake he made.

But it was too late. Now people know that actually doesn't know anything about NBA history. Maybe he just keep to the court.
