- Boban is a gem.
From his work ethic, to his personality, to what he brings on and off the court, he has become of the most beloved players in the NBA.

I was a player attendant for an NBA team and Boban was on the team that year. One day a few hours before the game he saw us other player attendants (about 9 of us) sitting in our "break area" watching another game on TV, and he walked in and asks if he can watch with us. He sat down and for like 20 minutes we just hung out and got to talk to him. Boban really is a down to earth guy, very polite and loves to chat. One of my most favorite memories.
Imagine walking a 7'4 giant walks into Popeyes like "Do you have soup"
We do now
Underrated comment
Hahahah
😂😂😂
Do you have soup, please
dude was at the top ramen place in OKC, he immediately came up to me after i called "BOBIE" and started comparing our looks. "You want a picture with me cuz im handsome, yes?" 😂
Do they have soup there, lol
That's awesome if this is true!! Lucky to have meet such an awesome nba player
This guy should be on a team just for his potential off court
He’s the sort of dude who raises team chemistry from 60 to 90 after a single practice
He’s on the Mavericks
@@seekindova oh and he's gonna be there for a long time if they wanna keep Luka
@@seekindova I know
I’m just stating, that even if his talents don’t warrant inclusion on a roster, his intangibles should win him a spot on the bench.
Sort of how Haslem has hung around for so long
@@glakshmiratan Even if he wasn’t such a great person off the court, he is still phenomenal on the court with the minutes he plays. These extremely tall players like him and Tako fall always end up being really good for limited minutes but can’t play heavy minutes because they get fatigued very quickly. Considering how good he is as a player and a teammate he would be a great pickup for any team.
He cheated on his wife
I had no idea he was a 3x MVP in Europe! That’s actually pretty insane
Yes, though it's in the Serbian league, not Euroleague.
Wth are you talking about? There is a 3 second violation in Europe and in Serbia and has been for years . Don't spill facts you don't know
@@mirkovujovic4324 I know there isn't one in FIBA, and I presumed the same for Euroleague. I wrote "I believe" to indicate that it's a speculation and not a fact, so calm down.
@@dismantledbrain5910 Article 26 of the official FIBA basketball rules states otherwise.
@@VladimirCordas Then Google gave me false information and I'm glad we cleared that up.
when Morris Sr says he is the nicest guy. you know there is some truth to it.
there hasn't been many people the Morris twins haven't gotten mad at LMFAO
that part of the video surprised me.
*Literally just the nicest guy on the planet. Lol*
No cap
@Mr Man shaq has never held that title hes definitely not the nicest guy
@Mr Man Shaq used to hate ... And still does hate on other people in the nba
@Mr Man gtfo
@Mr Man lmfao that was a good one, shaq is not even in the top 3 of most liked guys on the TNT crew.
Idk why but everytime I see him score and just play it makes me happy and I ain't even a Dallas fans
He is a good player even tho the leauge changed out of his favor he is somebody id want to anchor a 2-3 zone defense
Best Quote from him "You need to find your own way in this world."
Works on everything, very nice philosophy
Acting is his next career after he retires in the NBA. One of the giants in Lord of Rings Series.
He already fought John Wick.
@@rovidelarosa and played a role in dude perfect's (slightly cringy, but fun) skit in OT 27
I could see Him or Kristaps Porzingis as villains in a future 007 movie.
Remake of The Game of Death with Boban?
Kinda like Gheorghe Muresan. I could see it.
Boban's seems like a fun guy. Dude plays ball, fight's John Wick and beats up one of the guys from Dude Perfect... He's living it up.
I saw that dude perfect video lol
He beat cory
Which monster would dislike this video :O ... this is so wholesome!
7 clippers players
Agree
some shitrats
People who are miserable and don’t appreciate anything good
The 8 people he shot those 7'4 three pointers on
I hope he stays in Dallas long term. He's the kind of guy you need on a team for chemistry and positive attitude. His talents are underrated. He's a winner.
well if they want luka to stay with the team they better not trade boban😂
Well this didn’t age well lmao
@@victorkrstic4772 lol... 💀 ☠️
He is an amazing human being. He is our World's Big Friendly Giant. Love you Bobi! Živ bio brate najdraži!!! 🇷🇸
When he told the story of living through an environment where the "whole family slept in one room" just in case they were bombed, they'd "die together"...as a family touched my heart deeply.
To come from that terrified environment, living day to day, not knowing whether you/your family would die....and "still" have such a beautiful heart and not be tainted where you mistrust and mistreatment others but instead bring rays of sunshine, good will and good feelings wherever you go, speaks volumes about his beautiful spirit.
I knew nothing about this man until I saw the recent commercial with his NBA friend, Tobias, but I know him now and with so much dark personalities in the world's today, I am so glad I know he is a shining light.
MANNN.. THIS GUY GREW UP IN CIVIL WAR.. MOST OF THE KIDS WHO GREW UP WILL ALWAYS HAD TRAUMATIZE, BUT THIS MAN ALWAYS PUT A SMILE TO OTHER PEOPLE.. POSITIVE ENERGY TO THE TEAM MATE
@Stanic Daniel serbia civil war 1999
@McLaden Jankovic *težina lanaca-or weight of chains*
This guy fought John Wick and still alive. Props to this man!
Man when he was describing living in Serbia as a child, and when he said he wishes never to feel like that again, his eyes says it all. Poor guy. That sadness in his eyes shows how hard it is to live in conditions like that. And yet this man stays happy and omits positive energy to everyone. Here in America I think we take for granted our freeness and liberty. Only to be divided by the problem of race which we have been fighting for the past 200 years. Sad.
MVP - Most valuable personality
Found myself smiling watching this. Love Bobi. He just has a pure soul. Hope he stays a Mav.
I am sad my Spurs let him go....But now I have a reason to cheer for the Mavs....Luka and Boban are good dudes. I hope Luka straightens everything out with Cuban. Those two are good for the league.
Boban is literally twice the size of his wife.
His wife is 3’8”?
@@RoamingHeathen size not height
@t j jeez..
@yajo891 there's a wnba player a decade or so ago who unfortunately died probably from the height but she was Margo Dydek, 7'2".
This was fire I can’t lie I am gone appreciate life a lil more
Him saying he never wants to experience that again (the horror of Serbia) breaks my heart. One of the few times I've not seen a smile on his face... It took a horrible bringing to make him one of the most positive people I've ever seen
He’s the one player that every nba fan mutually loves
Please protect Boban at all costs.
Most adored player in the NBA
I love this guy.
Whomever is reading this remember to spread as much LOVE AS POSSIBLE, don't litter, help out the homeless and take care of nature please it's really important we gotta take care of eachother and mother earth. thank you and have a blessed life ❤
Through this entire feature, I either had a big smile on my face or laughed with him. Boban is the best! I love who he is and how he's just himself!
Y’all finally gave him good video quality
Prob the most likable person ive ever seen
Really like what he said:"...but still you have to find your place in this world!" Who cares what could have been in the 80s or 90s
Boban: “Do you have soup”?? Popeye’s: “We do now”!!!
I'm just a simple man, when I saw boban I automatically clicked it
A treasure of humanity.
“If you tall… you TALL!”
-Boban
Words to live by
Mike Cuban killed the feel good nature of this video, by comparing Boban to a cute dog, was all smiles till I heard that, like he's some form of amusement
yeah that was uncalled for
He’s comparing the joy that a puppy always has, to the joy boban always has. How tf is that messed up
@@damianl680 Some people just take it literally.
@@damianl680 Do you really enjoy being compared to puppies?
@@abe9560 it’s ok I know understanding the meaning behind words is tough for some people, someone’s gotta be stupid
*Boban Should Be The New Chunky’s Soup Guy!*
He should replace Tony the Tiger because Boban is grrrrreeat
Coolest dude in nba today with both class and sincerity
THATS WHY I LOVE HIM SO MUCH BECAUSE OF HIS PASSION IN BASKETBALL AND HIS PERSONALITIES
Glad he’s found success here in the US with minimal play time. He’s a star even off the court. Imagine him being here at the age of 20!
definition of a guy who lives the life in the NBA, wakes up, plays 8 to 10 mins a game, ups the team's morale and builde chemistry
Boban is love.
Boban is life.
I just became his fan after watching this.
If you don’t at least sympathise with him, you’re really stone cold. If I had a friend like him, I would be always reminded that depression can be cured, especially through good people like him
Amen
We need more people like him in this world, if we did this world would be such a beautiful place 🌍💪
I want to thank ESPN for putting this together. I smiled the entire time watching.
Protect this man at all cost...❤
Man, what a solid guy. You always root for success for quality people like this.
Too much positivity, every team deserves a Boban
Boban understands the key to life.
Probably my fave big man in the league right now since his days in San Antonio, he's a legit shooter if given the chance.
Love Bobo! I hope Dallas keeps him for a long time. He's such an asset to the NBA!
Lol, they FINALLY uploaded this in decent quality!! For those that don't know, ESPN uploaded this video like a month or two ago, but the video quality was absolutely horrible. Like... literally 240p.
I was looking for this comment lol they DEFINITELY uploaded this like a month ago in 240p lol
Bruh swear I was having a stroke I'm like the uploaded this already
Fun to watch Boban on and off the court. Looks to be a great guy, wish him the best and he gets a new contract to be around the league. Underrated player for sure, great post moves
The fact him and Tobias Harris are best friends and he took him to the John wick premier made me happy for some reason
Boban actually has game he helps his team when he's on the court. Great touch for a big man on his shot.
The dude’s attitude and outlook in life is truly admirable.
In the olympic qualifiers, Boban murdered our national team but he was kind enough to hang out with our team after the game.
Literally the bro energy radiating from this guy is insane
Man I love this dude😂
So much love for Boban! What a total legend..he appreciates where he is and where he came from..such a good ambassador for the game!
Without Boban, this world be sad...
Such a really good dude BIG Boban
No one can guard this guy. He needs more touches tbh
And he can't gaurd anybody especially on the perimeter.
He’s situational. Clear counter to him
I dont know how Porzingis or Cauley Stein have more minutes
He has a nice shooting touch, even from outside
Only john wick can stop him
What a joyful, gentle soul, bless him in his career.
Boban can make his own shots. He can shoot and has nice footwork. He only needs more time on the court.
We love Boban here in the Philippines.. Go Boban!
🛎"U rannnnnggg?"
After growing up in a environment of war, it's incredible to see how happy and positive he is. His journey to the NBA is truly one of a kind! One of my favorite players in the league today
War??? lol, he is from Serbia. They had no wars except attacking Croatia and Bosnia..
@@writenamehere0000 yeah, yeah, cro-bosnian mythology
If he played in the 70s 80s he would have been a legend
Mad respect for you boban✊🏾
Bruh your picture 😂😂🤡
Never let this guy go, Dallas. I’m a Pistons fan, but i love the camaraderie the Mavs have. Keep having fun, Boban!
Stay humble idol 👍
Boban Marjonvich is so chilled and he is a caring person
No amount of negativity could ever put this giant down. What an amazing human being.
Lol lost it when he teased AD with the ball in the air!
"No I can't dunk with two hands"
-Boban
I hope he can live a long full and healthy life. In the past, guys with acromegaly (gigantism) had many health problems, but I think Boban could be an exception.
Boban is a perfect name for a 7 foot tall guy like that. I’m a fan now
Wow you really gave him that title 🤣 nice
That's a title for the big show lol
this is exactly what i needed today, i smiled again in a long time
I love Boban. He is a good NBA player...
Three-peat MVP?! What a feat of amazement! There are so many talents overseas.
He is such a nice dude, with an amazing spirit!
I love this guy a lot!
I wish I had a friend like him… God bless Boban 🙏🏽
What a great human.
I’ve liked him ever sense I seen his relationship with Tobias he’s such a nice humble guy
I wish Boban could be on every team for a season, we all deserve that.
He should have a show!
Serbia 🇷🇸 influencing NBA big time nowadays. Boban, Jokic, Doncic (parents, grandparents etc from Serbia)...
😆
Everybody likes him even the opposite teams.
Better see an E:60 or documentary like they did for MJ about Boban
Why? He matters to the history to the NBA like Mike?
@@UncleRuckusss cuz he’s white lol
San Antonio misses this guy on our team! Always a fan favorite.
such a humble and cool guy!!
Nicest guy in the NBA 💯
He even looks like the actual BFG
One of the best, inside and out
Much respect Boban, big man with a big heart 👏🏼
this is too short, pls make a longer or at least make a documentary about him. 😊
