Good on you Ziga.

Samo mali clanak da vide svi da ljubav za Drazena nece nikada stati, doklegod ima mladih koji tako misle. Oni koji ga nevole mogu pricati dok "all cows come home" Australska izrecica.

Pozdrav svim ljubiteljima Basketball-a.

Bogut''s favorite -- Drazen Petrovic

If you see Utah sophomore center Andrew Bogut -- and at 7-foot tall, he''s difficult to miss -- wish him a happy early birthday. The big man turns 20 on Nov. 28.
Bogut might be young, but he has an old school hoops soul. On Wednesday and Thursday night at Sullivan, the hardwood Hercules wore a retro New Jersey Nets uniform top of Drazen Petrovic while he watched Shootout games from the stands.
Petrovic was an NBA star but was held in even higher regard overseas. The Croatian died in an automobile accident in 1993.
Most know Bogut as an Australian, but his parents are Croatian and he says Petrovic always has been his favorite player.


"He''s the best European basketball player ever," Bogut said. "I look up to him and his work ethic."
Bogut said he found the jersey while touring Croatia in 2003 and it was a must-buy. There was one problem with the purchase, though. The jersey fits tight on the big man''s frame.
"I couldn''t find a 3X," Bogut said, "so I had to make a 2X work."
