What is the harsh comment of Jabbar for Dwight Howard

The All time great Center, Kareem Abdul Jabbar may not be playing professional basketball these days but he surely still follow what is happening in today's basketball world. Recently his comments about Dwight Howard have irked fans and Dwight Howard himself, so what did Jabbar say about Dwight Howard?

Jabbar mentioned:

"Dwight is an extraordinary athlete and has incredible athletic ability, but basketball is a game where the most important muscle that you use on the court is the one between your ears," Abdul-Jabbar said on ESPN's "First Take" show Thursday. "Dwight's basketball IQ is not up to speed for him to be a dominant player."

Translation: Dwight Howard you should have stayed in Los Angeles,  what were you thinking? that was a stupid move therefore we hate you and you are no longer the best center in the league.

Dwight Howard's response:

You can't win three Defensive Player of the Year trophies and be stupid. That can't be done," he told the Houston Chronicle. "And I don't think any coach that has ever coached me has said I have a low IQ for basketball.

"Have I done some dumb stuff on the floor? Yes, every player has. Have I done some stupid things in life? Yes, it's life. We make mistakes and learn from them. It is what it is. I think I am very intelligent when it comes to the game of basketball. I have been playing since I was 3 years old. Each year, I get a little smarter.

"People will have something to say. Is what it is. I'm in (Houston) now. This city has my back and we are going to ride together."

"When I joined the Lakers I was the greatest center. When I left, I was the worst," Howard said. "Mentally, I wasn't capable of playing center. I understand a lot of things are said out of emotion. I will say, if he has anything to say, I am here in Houston. We can talk man to man. That's how I feel."

"There is no need for me to go back and forth with him," Howard said. "One thing I would say is that he is old enough to where whatever I do shouldn't even matter. He is Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. If I'm Kareem, I'm like why? Four championships, five championships, whatever. I've been in Airplane and done movies with Bruce Lee. I am not worried about the young whippersnapper.

"I wish him good luck. People do things different and when I am done playing, I will do what I can to help the younger generations."
