    It's hard to believe it's been 32 years since Drazen died. Once he got to play full-time, he showed his talents. When he was with the Blazers, it was hard to get minutes with Clyde and Terry Porter at the guard positions. Drazen kept his mouth shut and did well whenever he got playing time. My boys and I were shocked when we read of his car accident.

      @@scottipippen6554 Galis was a better scorer but not better shooter. Miller Said it himself, Drazen was the best shooter he ever saw. Schimidt was close. Navaro was not in his league. Only one I`ll give credit to is Steph, but I don`t think he would be that good in the 90`s while Drazen would dominate now. Drazen was a beast in practise. He had Mamba mentality before Mamba. He was asked once how would win a pickup game between him and MJ. He said the one who got the ball first.

      Kukoc is the greatest European player to play in the NBA. Arvydas, Sarunas and Drazen are right behind. And then these kids come and say Dirk was the best Euro player ever ...Sigh. All of these guys would eat Dirk for breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner

      Idk about that. Dirk was a scoring machine. You’re talking about a 7 footer with a pull up jumper from any where, and with some handles. His footwork in the post was up to par with the likes of Kobe, MJ etc, except he was 7ft…just cause he wasn’t playing in your “day” doesn’t matter. Great players are great in any era..

      He was one of the best shooters in league history and turned down an invite to the 3 point contest because he felt it was a snub...the guy died very young you can't compare his NBA career stats to what his potential was. A prime Sabonis and prime Dirk were the only European players better than he was and Sarunas was also excellent. You're clueless.
