Basically Serbia(15 years compared to their 75 years of basketball) has already more titles than Spain and Greece. And those are our rivals for the future? :D

And, at the end, you say something like, Serbian players still have to come out of a shade and prove on big competitions, not u20 and etc. So, I ask you were then Divac, Danilovc, Bodiroga, Paspalj, Djordjevic aliens or what? Or for you they are Yugoslavs, not Serbians, so Serbs on their own didn't do anything?

You have serious issues understanding my posts. Either you do not get me or you do not want to get me... I cannot help you, but that crap you write about Divac, Bodiroga... is your invention. I take my hat in front of these men, not yet in front of Teodosic, Velickovic and so...

I think you have some friends from this area, probably Croats, by the way you speak, because it is obvious you don't know the facts from first hand, but you are still familiar of some things, not like average foreigner.

Well, if you know the facts, you wouldn't look up at Wikipedia for our status, regarding from 1992. to 1995.

You say, you don't take your hat just yet to Teodosic or Velickovic, and that is OK, and I could agree with that even, but that doesn't apply what are you saying about Serbia doesn't having success in basketball, and still needing to prove.

You shouldn't care how country was called last 18 years, the point is that Serbian players played and they were welcomed every time they win in front of Parliament in Belgrade, and those players were Divac, Danilovic and etc. not some aliens.
 
I don t care who U re..
and this is not topic about history and your profile.

Ok, ok... this is ponintless. I never said I knew the facts first hand. Those GREAT players in front of the Parliament (by the way... which parliament was that, in front of Pionirski Park? weren't they welcomed in the town hall?) were Serbians. I was just saying they represented Yugoslavia. You proved me wrong, they "retrospectedly" represented Serbia.

No they represented, their country, Yugoslavia, I mean you are talking about FR Yugoslavia like something big, strange to Serbians, it was the country comprised of Serbia and Montenegro, with 95% of people living in Serbia, the majority of Montenegrians felt like Serbians at that time, it was our country, it was not some strange thing. I mean, is the name that important to you?

Well, we must play hard, we watched your games with them closely, and realized that spitting is not a well weapon against floppers, so we have to perform some other strategy. :D

You know, if DD Achilles The Great Spitter, couldn't do a thing to those nasty floppers, and at the end had to cry and leave NT, we really must do some other stuff, nasty hurtful stuff to win, if you understand. :D

Yoy're wrong !!! Spitting in the ear ,full force,from a close distance can be lethal!!!
Unfortunatelly this fine manoeuvre has not been exercised by our specialists against Spaniards....and we lost the game.Don't make the same mistakes!
Have no mercy.These guys are gonna flop any way,give them hell!:D

Let's put it this way. Is there still a Yugoslavian school? (You know what I mean). If you get back to my first posting I mention the system. Is the Yugoslavian system bringing these new players? I do not think so. And the Yugoslavian school, their coaching methods, their tactics, player formation... was the best. Does that school still exist? Do these young great players have to bear that weight? Is Serbia population wise and methodic wise the same country? Do the clubs work like in the 80's when that last generation appeared?

What has happened from 2002 until 2007 is the consequence of that vacuum.
And these players should go their way. This a new chapter. Let's them write the pages.
That is what I meant. With no ofences whatsoever. Offtopic anyway. End here.
 
Former Yugoslavia had great success and great basketball tradition FR Yugoslavia as well but who cares about what was only thing which matters is whats now and i honestly hope now is semifinals for Serbia
 
Lets go serbia!

That famous Yugoslav basketball system is basically Aleksandar Nikolic and his legacy ( Zeljko Obradovic,Duda Ivkovic and Svetislav Pesic). Do I have to mention that they are all Serbs (they were Serbs even before 1992 and this is what you don't get apparently)

A clear evidence are the results after the break up of Yugoslavia in 1992. Croatia got three medals with their Yugo generation and that's about it. Slovenia and the other have no medal at all.

On the other hand Serbia already has 8 medals (including 5 titles). I wont even mention the youth tournament dominance.

Talking about a vacuum?
