Ja sam američki iz Bostona. Kao dječak sam gledao Dino Rada i nikada uistinu cijenimo svoje vrijeme u NBA sve do nedavno sam vidio Vlade Divac dokumentarni film o njemu, Dražen Petrović i bivše Jugoslavije nacionalni košarkaški tim. Mislio sam da ću napisati ovaj hrvatski iz poštovanja prema svim ljudima iz te regije u svijetu koji gledaju ovaj video. Dino je bio veliki igrač. Živjeli.
Jedan mojih omilijenijih igraca medju najboljimi,Dino,Kukoc,Divac,Petrovic,Zdovc...samo kad se sjecam,to je bila generacija..respect i pozdrav iz Slovenije.
Honestly ex-Yu was a really really small country considering how many sports greats it gave birth to. I'm Croatian and we always had great sportsmen/women, but so did the Serbs, and others! I remember ex-yu basketball team quite well and we gave much much pain and troubles to such basketball nations as USSR (!), Italy, Spain. so it's actually a small wonder.
thkalas Man, I agree yes Radja can be seen as some kind of a mix between McHale and Olajuwon, only not quite at their level about what they excelled at. But, on the other hand, being a mix is already a plus in itself, not a minus. Watch closely at his post moves jump shots from close distance and fade away shots. He didn't lack size either, nor willpower or focus like other non US great promises (see Darko Milicic...). But don't forget he was'nt just taught, he also played basketball for a long time only outside the US: he reached the NBA only by the end of his prime, after played also in Italia for Roma team. He was not so frequently challenged by lots of good players and by the high rythms of the NBA early enough. If he joined the NBA let's say even only 5 years sooner, he could have been a real force. That's the most I can say about it though...
I remember that game it was the last game in the boston garden. Sherman douglas took a 3 point heave either to tie it or win it for boston and it missed. Radja was amazeing in that game and Dominque Wilkins was playing out of his skin although he missed a crucial free throw that would of tied the score late in regulation. Chris Ford was fired after the season by Celtics GM M.L. Carr who took over as coach and pretty much drove the team into the ground after that.
ahh 95, this was the first year they weren't so good, i remember being mad for a long time that they got rid of gamble, he was money. dino was good offensively, but watching him try to rebound was brutal. everything was one hand with himn.
Some people talk about how Penny would have been a great player if he hadn't gotten injured...dude had a lot of time to prove himself before he got injured. he was always on the cusp of greatness, but you know what? dude was a fucking headcase.
@atonly everything from ur childhood is remembered more fondly than what is going on today... (the those were the days saying no matter how good or bad the past and future was or will be)
I don`t know whay did they destroy this young Celtic team: Rada, Fox as young guys whit some good 3 or 4 players and Celtics could of been good players
don't want to sound like I know everything but in my opinion, Radja was an hard worker so he improved a lot over the years and he became a truly great player. No doubt about that. But toni was better because he was essentially a genius, and in my opinion he never completely express all his talent, playing with the bulls. Because there was Jordan already, and Jordan is a team on his own. So kukoc is better. At Jugoplastika Kukoc was better. But sure we are talking about two extraordinary players.
Pau is perhaps better at offense, but in defense Dino was a lot better. Shaq once said that he had never been so well guarded as Dino Radja. I still think that Dino was better than Sabas.

Imao je dobru statistiku
i'm asian and I was a kid then, but in nba live 94 this guy is a beast. I'll always and forever remember this name.

Well done by Dino. Good play on court, and on top of that, he used his experience to emotionally disrupt Penny.
Proud he has been member of my team Panathinaikos B.C
Great center!!!

The ex-Yugoslav nations have always had fantastic athletes!
He could move like McHale and Olajuwon.
are you stupid? Maybe radja could move similarly to Mc Hale , but are you that stupid to make a comparison with Olajuwon?

Best european player in boston

This guy is Brandon Roy before Brandon Roy, same knees. Love to see this guy moving like Mchale.
Some people talk about how Penny would have been a great player if he hadn't gotten injured...dude had a lot of time to prove himself before he got injured. he was always on the cusp of greatness, but you know what? dude was a fucking headcase.
Looking like Larry Legend out there. 🍀
please more videos for this great player
Great upload and editing man, brings back some memories...much appreciated!
best european center ever.
The guy could play

As good as Dino was, no one on the Celtics can hold back Shaq. Just too dominant and the Magic made it to the NBA finals that year too.
Montross is a bust. And Pervis Ellison was too small.
Dino veliki majstor košarke. Dva ili tri puta je dao koš preko mladog Shaq-a, bez imalo straha! Fenomenalna partija!
i love that google translate grammar :)
i appreciate the effort though.
cheers!
congratulation！！Radja ( ﾟДﾟﾉﾉ"☆ﾊﾟﾁﾊﾟﾁﾊﾟﾁﾊﾟﾁ
Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame！
Last game in boston garden
@demoncleaner45 those were just rumors. same thing with vlade divac
Radja was a great player better than divac. i remember always playing with Dino in NBA Jam TE
He is far better than Divac. No compare there at all...
Reminds me of Danny ferry, same caliber type of player
@CroBullsFan1
hvala :))))
@CroPETROforever hvala
@CroBullsFan1

Basketball reference i upiši boston i godinu
Prejako...
Mrzio sam taj Orlando

divac je najbolji
Sinko popij čaj i malo lezi, Biće ti bolje ujutro...
Radja was so much better than Kukoc. I just remember my friends and I arguing over the two.
don't want to sound like I know everything but in my opinion, Radja was an hard worker so he improved a lot over the years and he became a truly great player. No doubt about that. But toni was better because he was essentially a genius, and in my opinion he never completely express all his talent, playing with the bulls. Because there was Jordan already, and Jordan is a team on his own. So kukoc is better. At Jugoplastika Kukoc was better. But sure we are talking about two extraordinary players.
Dino Rađa is the best european centar ever!!!
@MsTomo099 17 koseva 6 skokova
Pau is perhaps better at offense, but in defense Dino was a lot better. Shaq once said that he had never been so well guarded as Dino Radja. I still think that Dino was better than Sabas.
Are you out of your mind. Arvydas sabonis was the top 5 player in Europe for many years
Radja is good but not on sabas level
Arvydas Sabonis disagrees
OVIH 4 ZA NAJBOLJU PETORKU U EUROPI IKAD SAMO MI JOŠ FALI PETI,,NEZZ KOGA DA STAVIM
Dino ubojica !!!
Dino. Legenda
