There are few things that matter more to the average Serbian than basketball. Basketball is one of the most popular sports in a country that has always been capable of developing talented players. But that, in part, is because of the country's great cultural tradition. And when we say they take the sport very seriously, we're not exaggerating in the slightest....The two-time regular season MVP and newly crowned NBA champion is the top basketball player in a country that has been exporting players to the NBA for decades. But beyond the individual success of its players, Serbia is known worldwide in the basketball world for its collective performances.

Name your favourite Serbian Player?
-
you forgot Micic he is also in the NBA and is the main PG for Serbia 1x Euro League MVP 2x Euro League MVP finals, Serbia is missing 7 stars from their squad and still made it to the finals
-
Drazen Petrovic's father is a Serb, as is Luka Doncic's father. Drazen's grandfather and Bodiroga's grandmother are brother and sister, and Luka is their distant relative. All three are my relatives and they all have Serbian genes. Pistol Pete Maravich's parents are also Serbian. Nikola Vucevic, Nikola Pekovic and Nikola Mirotic are Serbs from Montenegro. Serbs and Montenegrins have identical genes, and they share almost the same genes with Croats and Bosniaks. The five best European coaches of all time are Serbs. Among the younger Serbian coaches, Kokoskov and Rajkovic are the only non-American coaches who were head coaches of an NBA team. Gregg Popovich also has Serbian genes. Excellent video!

WE ARE A COUTRY FOR A LOOONG TIME NOT JUST AFTER YUGOSLAVIA
-
That chant in the begining, is not from Serbia but Greece, equal passion, orthodox brothers, sports powerhouse, love from Serbia!
-
Why did you use map of Serbia during second world war?
-
Video is very good brother, everything is excellently done and explained very good, but just so you know at 8:18 it's not the Serbian fans but the Greek ones, and you forgot to mention Vasa Micic, MVP of the Euroleague and from next season NBA player.

My friend, you've made WAAAAAAY too many mistakes in this video. From the wrong pictures of the players, countries, country flags, to the horrible pronunciations of names. Please fix it xD PS: Serbia/Yugoslavias' basketball history started way back then in the 90's. Just google Yugoslavia basketball and check the list of medals. Our second biggest star is Vasilije Micic who will be playing for OKC next season. He's a former mvp of the Euroleague (strongest basketball league in europe where teams from different countries compete) and a 2 time champion with Anadolu Efest. Pokusevski was never a part of the national team and he's too young and we don't really count on him yet. We're missing our veteran players on wing positions, mainly Nikola Kalinic and Vladimir Lucic, who were instrumental in past medal runs and are some of the best players in europe on their position. And we're basically playing with only 1 point guard who has a back injury and who knows how many other injuries.

That is not Filip Petrusev, that was Aleksa Avramovic at 7:02

Jovic and Micic ❣️
-
If Nikola was playing in this tournament, Serbia would win it all!
-
Talking about Montenegro and showing picures and flag of Kosovo...

They have missed Micic also (a better player than Pokusevski right now)
