Charles Barkley grills Dwight Howard: 'Why do you think people don't like you?'

Dwight Howard was a guest on NBA on TNT on Tuesday night while Shaquille O’Neal and Ernie Johnson were at the Sports Emmy Awards. He sat in Shaq’s usual seat and fielded some tough questions from the rest of the crew, particularly from Charles Barkley (three clips are at the bottom of this post).

There’s Twitter proof that certain players around the NBA were watching, plus Shaq, who sent out a brutal tweet.

The “NO RING” part is so cold, especially after Howard had just talked on set about how much it hurts for him to see other teams winning championships while he keeps getting knocked out of the postseason.

Shaq also had a little Superman dig for Howard, who was wearing a Superman pin to go along with his pink suit.

Other players who tweeted during the segment included Chandler Parsons…

…and Marcin Gortat.

Here are a few pieces from Howard’s NBA on TNT appearance.
