    26.08.2005
    by Damir Jovanovic

    In their first test match before the Eurobasket 2005 that was played on Thursday evening the players of Zeljko Obradovic (Željko Obradovi?) and the actual World Champion the selection of Serbia & Montenegro has won the duel against Croatia a team who would like to win a medal on the upcoming compe ion as well.

    The match has been played in the Montenegrin capital Podgorica before 4,000 fans in a good and friendly as it can be atmosphere that was ruined by Croatian Dalibor Bagaric (Dalibor Bagari?) who made a technical foul over Nenad Krstic (Nenad Krsti?) by pushing the New Jersey center with what he made the crowd upset.

    As for the game itself it was more or less equal but the Serbs were clearly a squad with more quality just they have just begun to warm up with test games so they lacked the good finishing while the defense worked very well considering that the Croatians lost 26 balls what is more than double than the actual World crown holder.

    Detroit Pistons center Darko Milicic (Darko Mili?i?) also made a good appearance for the Blues although he seemed a bit uncertain what to do with the ball when he got it (his face was like wow I’m holding it) at first he quickly got into the game and made a superb block, couple of rebounds and scored three points. So there’s some hope for this talented lad who if given more time in his NBA club could make a nice career.

    Still the power of the Serbs lies in the experience, Dejan Bodiroga scored some crucial points out of his 11 in the fourth quarter, while Dejan Milojevic (Dejan Milojevi?) the center of Partizan Beograd caught balls that Croatians couldn’t afford to lose.

    The best pointer for the Serbs & Montenegrins was Nenad Krstic he succeeded to sign in 16 while Igor Rakocevic (Igor Rako?evi?) was second on his list wit 12 but the new Real Madrid signing delighted us with some attractive moves that shown his one of the most in-form Obradovic’s players.

    As for the Croats, Gordan Giricek (Gordan Giri?ek) is without question their best player he signed in 20 pts while one of their most talented stars Roko Ukic (Roko Uki?) despite 9 pts had some disastrous errors (missing the basket two times from close range while being alone in the area), that questions how ready is he mentally for this big compe ion.

    The first quarter finished 19:19, the second 23:23 in both the Croats had a solid lead but dropped it by the end while they finished the third with four points advantage 50:54 only to see the Serbs make a 8:0 start in the fourth and by the end win the match 74:71.

    I can't wait too see what all the people who bashed on Darko say after he becomes great. Too bad they won't ever be able to take back what they say cause I'll have some of it posted here.

    Darko finished against slovenia with 9 points, 7 boards, and 8 blocks. On offense he's always rushed, and his rebounding timing is pretty bad right now, but he's getting better. You can't expect him to have great timing and instincts after not playing for 2 years. I just wished they could have had the new NBDL stuff setup 2 years ago. He would be light-years ahead of where he is now as a player.

    Serbia & Monte Negro has won the ProMont Supercup with 3 victories. The second place was for Croatia with 2 victories and 1 defeat, third was Lithuania with 1 victory and 2 defeats, and Slovenia was last with 3 defeats.

    Nenad Krstic of the New Jersey Nets was named MVP of the preparation tournament for the Eurobasket 2005.

    The results of the "blues" ware:

    S&MN - Croatia 74:71 (19:19, 23:23, 12:16, 20:13)
    S&MN - Slovenia 74:66 (19:14, 15:15, 19:18, 21:19)
    S&MN - Lithuania 94:80 (16:18, 21:27, 22:20, 35:15)

    Coach Obradovic used a complete rotation for the tournament to test all the players.

    It is apparent to me that you fellas that say "Darko is going to be good" and "Darko is still young" havent had an opportunity to watch the guy. Ask people that see him at practice, talk to people that go to the games, or you yourself go to the games and observe him and how he carries himself. The kid is mentally wrecked here in Detroit. He cares more right now about going out clubbing and partying all the damn time, than he does about baskeball...Disagree if you want...I have been able to witness this first hand...

    Add me to the list...Put me on top of the mother er.

    The guys career averages will look like this:

    9.8 ppg
    6.3 reb
    1.2 ass
    1.6 blk
    .8 st
    46% fg
    79% ft
    25 min/game

    Darko will be the punchline to the joke "who did the Pistons draft instead of Dwayne Wade".

    They coulda had Wade OR Melo.

    Could be one of the biggest mistakes in draft history if Wade and Melo continue to play the way they are playing. It may even get close to the Trailblazers decision to draft Bowie instead of Michael Jordan.

    Did I miss the message where Wade was now Jordan incarnate and no longer had the Shaq effect going for him?

    Two questions:

    1. Who said he was Jordan?

    2. You dont think he is good just cuz he has Shaq? (2a. If thats the case, what do you say about Manu? Timmy effect???)

    Darko is going to be great. It is too early to say he isn't going to be. Wade is older than Darko so of course he is supposed to be better.

    Bad showing at Efes cup for Serbia & Monte Negro. It's an irelevant tournament and there is no intensity, but after that ugly 2004 Olympics, I wonder if the NT can win the Euro championship this year.

    Let's hope Obradovic knows what he's doing...

    What the has Carmelo done other than pout like a baby when he gets pulled out of games.

    Carmelo will be out of the NBA by 2008.
