To me, the best basketball player ever. He died in a car crash. I would like to hear your opinions about Dražen.

I know about him and who he is, but I don't know what to say, I was only 1 year old when he died.

Mediocre nba player.

His ball handlng and jump shot make me say he shouldn't be mentioned in the same sentence as mj, pistol pete, larry bird, magic johnson, and many others. A good nba player, looks like it, but I bet he isn't even in the h.o.f. :unsure:

either way thanks for bringing him to our attention, he did have some nice passes and ball fakes :y:

He is in H.O.F. since 2002. He was among the first european players that came to NBA.

Read NBA PERIOD. If he lived, no doubt he would be one of the greatest players in the world.

I saw the espn movie about him and what's his name from the lakers, I gained a new respect for drazen after seeing what he did and his work ethic. He was very good, but he wasn't on the level of the greatest, but who knows where he woulda been, but he def was one of the best in the league when he played :y:

I watched this a few nights ago on ESPN. It's called "Once Brothers" and Vlade Divac talks about him and Drazen Petrovic. Great movie. I think if Petrovic wasn't killed in that car wreck, he could have even won a Championship.

The best basketball player ever?Come on now.I'm not sure if he is the Greatest European player ever.
For most people Dirk is the best European player ever and not Petrovic or Galis.
Sabonis was also a phenom but he had injuries.Healthy Sabonis>>any European player.
The greatest player is Michael Jordan followed by Kareem and Wilt.Petrovic was a great player but he has no business when we speak about the greatest players in basketball history.
Magic Joihnson,Larry Bird,Bill Russell,Jerry West,Shaq,Hakeem all far better than him.I can name also many other better than him.

Did you notice that my post begins with "To me"? And yes, he is the best European basketball player ever, and Dirk has got nothing on him. Do a little research.

If you want to kidding yourself then yes he is.
No points to consider him the Greatest ever.
My favorite player ever is Pete Maravich but I would never say that he is the GOAT because he isn't.
I can name also a lot of other candidates for the best European player ever.
Sabonis,Dirk,Kukoc,Galis,Divac,Belov,Gasol and Drazen.
Dirk is a very good choice for the Best European player ever.
