I love Yugoslavian players...Kresimir Cosic LIVES!
Kresimir Cosic? Now there is a name I haven't seen in like 20 years. Funny that you mentioned him DeBrun since Cosic coached my favorite Greek team in the
late 80s. No joke. Cosic was a giant of a man with a mean temper. None of the Greek sports media dared to criticize him
Yeah, I'm fond of the Yugoslavian players too. I saw many of them play in Greece and other European tournaments before heading to the NBA. Drazen Petrovic,
Kukoc, Divac, Dino Radja (too bad he played for a crappy team), Zarko Paspalj (MAJOR star in the Greek league), Danilovic, Stojko Vrankovic, etc.
Before the Yugoslavian civil wars, I remember the Croatian team Yugoplastika/POP 84 won the Euroleague three years in a row. They were such a dominant team,
nobody in Europe could compete with them.
