best all time european player mix. Here you can see moments of his carreer. From his young days in Zalgiris and URSS national team till his last season in Kaunas. Sabas is best-known Lithuanian in world
the greatest international center ever to play the game! I got to pleasure serve him sushi when he was still playing in Portland years ago. Very polite man and a beautiful wife.
Soy del barca y jamás entendí que Núñez no lo fichara después de grenoble. A sido, es y será el mejor jugador de Europa con muchísimas diferencias a cualquiera. El único jugador que se puede comparar en ataque (no en en todo) es Drazen Petrovic, los demás son mediocres a su lado. TODOS
All these statements of NBA players you see at the beginning of the video are about crippled 34 years old Sabonis. Now do the math and imagine him before operations on both knees ten years later - or just see the videos from that thime. Sabonis was the most dominant player under the hoops in the history of basketball.
My top five all-time centers (in no particular order): Kareem, Wilt, Dream, Shaq, Sabonis. It blows my mind that a man that big could be so agile. If a genie gave me three wishes one of them would to warp a young, pre-injury Arvydas Sabonis into the NBA today. I mean today. As in right now. And I'd put him in a Sixers uniform. :-)
Simple example on how good pre-injury Sabonis was. Ralph Sampson didn't make it and recover after much much lighter injuries. This man was officiali disabled and still could make 14-16 pts, 9 rwbs and 3 ast in only 25 min being 31-35 years old in NBA. If he would come to NBA in 1986 during his prime and would avoid terrible injuries - there would be no competition for him.
El Zar. El mejor de todos los tiempos y de todos los sitios. Poderoso, inteligente, habilidoso... Perfecto. Lo único que no puede desempeñar es de base. Lo demás es elegante y efectivo. El gancho. Pases de espaldas. Tiro de tres. Intimidación en defensa. Rebote de ataque. Bloqueador. Visión de equipo. Sangre fría en momentos decisivos. Qué pena no poder seguir viendolo jugar eternamente.
If only he could've came to the NBA sooner, its kinda sad that injuries robbed Sabonis of his best years, but he was still effective. This was a quote from Shaq about Sabonis "He (Sabonis) was the original real deal".
Los mejores centros de basketball de la historia no son americanos, Olajuwon Nigeriano y Sabonis Lituano incluyendo toda su carrera antes de NBA y con todo y sus lesiones. Centros americanos hay muchos y buenisismos pero no como estos dos...
BEST CENTER EVER!!!!!! HIS perfomance is fenomenal,who's beter??? Shaq?,no,just stupid big guy,who is very good near the bassket,but never shoot 3 poins,and so on,Sabas # 1 allmost in everysing for the big guy like he is,he is like 2.20 playmaker:)))

man lithuania i basketball country , i lought to death when my dad telld me this : sabonis , krapikas , sireika and many more playd for CCCP olimpics and in the best of the teams , and then there was a discution what is better lithuania or CCCP (lithuania only 3 milion people) so there the people said that there is no chance to lithuania and know what then happend ? lithuania winned against CCCP 2 times from 2 ;D lol i lought to death ...
Mozes da budes ne znam koliko kosarkaski obrazovan i iskusan, ali to ti u prici nije nikakav argument. Stojakovic je mnogo kompletniji i kvalitetniji igrac od Bodiroge, koji nije isao u NBA, gde igraju najbolji. A Peja je starter sasvim sigurno bio 2001. i 2002. i MVP tih prvenstava. 1999e je bio povredjen, a 2000e je bio najbolji igrac u tom raspalom Obradovicevom timu. 2003e nije bilo Bodiroge, tako da je to glupo porediti. Sprdanje sa Maloneom i Anthonyjem - jos jedan mit...
slučajno sam se bavio "malo" ozbiljnije košarkom, pa sam smislio to. bodiroga je kao što i sam znaš draftovan, međutim, zašto nije išao u nba, pitaj njega. i turkoglu je nba igrač, ali to ne znači da je inteligentniji i bolji igrač od bodiroge. stojaković je sa druge strane šuter. sjajan šuter, ali nije konstantan igrač. bodiroga se u 21. godini sprdao sa melounom, a sa 32 sa melom entonijem. pitaj obradovića i pešića zašto je bodiroga bio starter, a ne peđa . kapa dole peđi, ali grešiš ovde.
And one more thing about Bodiroga: At his prime he was way better player than Stojakovic, who was one of the best shooters in the NBA league during last decade. He was most consistent player, and Navarro's idol (whom you mentioned in your post). Greetings from Serbia!
Yes, I'm from Serbia, but you have to admit that Bodiroga was real all-round player - white Magic Johnson! In one interview he talked about the final game of the Olympic Games 1996th in Atlanta. He did his distinctive feint in a duel with Karl Malone. In the next attack, Malone has injured him and said: "Who do you think you're making a fool of me?" Also, there is a video on YT with Carmelo Anthony: /watch?v=DQEzmPKdqt4 Btw, I made a mistake on my list - Sabonis before Galis.

Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon & Arvydas "Sabas" Sabonis, they're the two best centers in history of basketball...
ha, ha, ha.
Niekada nebuvo ir nebus tokio centro, kuris galėtų išvalyti gynybą, nes neatspėsi ką padarys toliau :}} Sabonis + Pippen ;o
Sabonis was awarded for regular season MVP in Euroleague at the age of 39.. This can show how skilled he was
потрясающе
Best in europe of all times
@Iknowhowtospellsorta why everyone think that NBA is measure of quality in basketball...?? and saying that he should come earlier...
0:56 Who can't jump?
He looks like a more agile Marc Gasol
And more highest sabonis was 2.20 marc 2.15.

maybe kareem? :)

Sabonis easily destroyed Robinson at olympic games :)
@clinicallyalive
Shaq would have no chances against Sabas in his prime
@jmixplizik I would like to see him and hakeem olajuwon on a one on one game at their primes.
Wow he made Davis Robinson look like a little puppet...

I agree this guy like Shaq, or Wilt did it all. So sad that he never got to play in the NBA before the injuries, didn't he have 2 torn achilles?
He did play and he was good! He just didn't have the chance to show off how good he was.
Yes i agree.
you cant say that gasol or nowitcky are better than Sabas . Only that he became best euroleague player of the season being ~40 sais enauth :)
super :) Sabonis geriausias. He's the best.
Fuiste el mas grande Sabas
The pass @ 5:28 may be the best pass I've ever seen by anybody.
Beautiful pass indeed! Guard in center's body they used to call him :)
yeah, he was something special..
there will never be a guy with that type of passing ability as big as he was again
He literally destroyed Admiral in the Olympic game.
Both legs destroyed , no play for more then one year before olympics and gave lessons to remeber for all life to Mr Robinson.
Im getting that Zalgiris jersey and Russian jersey of his! I got the Trail Blazer one! Sabonis is awesome! My favorite ! Great video!
