- The best basketball players in the world eventually find their way to the best league in the world - the NBA. When it comes to the sidelines - the situation is quite the opposite. Only a few European coaches had a chance to be head coaches in the NBA, but neither of them had as much success in EuroLeague as Zeljko Obradovic.
In this video, we will look at the best of the best, the one who is widely considered to be the most successful coach in European basketball history - Zelimir 'Zeljko' Obradovic.

If he would have players who are ready to learn and don't have problems to listen him shouting, he would make unbeatable team. But in NBA is like star players above the team, so he would not be able to make sistem.
nba wouldnt be able to handle his aura
NBA not suitable for him or Obradovic not suitable for the NBA.
I dont know if he is the best european coach ever .If you ask him ,i believe he will probably say someone else.(Ivkovic?) For sure has the most trophies ,but thats not enough i believe because if we base our discussion only on how many silverware someone has won, R.Horry as a player would be in the GOAT conversation for the NBA.
Also, after Partizan and Badalona has always coached top teams with top budgets and top players.I'd like to see him coaching a team like how OLY was back in the 2011-2012 and having similar success. Maybe he can do it now with Partizan,who knows....
The question is if the NBA deserves Obradovic's greatness
no, f*ck nba, it's too plastic
NBA doesn't deserve Zeljko. All those primadonna players there, couldn't show the respect he deserves. He would rock though with a roster full of good role players and two top european players.

@@barondavis7 lol, Pops is like a smooth operator in regard to Zel's Pacino.
@@AlienSexFilth1985 Pop is the GOAT tho, not even the almighty Zeljko can match him. In fact no one can match Pop not only in his career but he's a class when it comes to know how to handle situations and his mentality.

@@pixytorres7117 Pop is an excellent coach but if it werent for Duncan he wouldnt last longer than David Blatt in the NBA. He cant handle egos since he has a bigger ego of his own.
Every Turk, Serb, Greek and much more love this guy. It's not about only success. Also he has great character. Respect from Istanbul >3
"Fuck you everybody" hahahahah
I wouldnt accept anyone talk to me the way he does to his players .Not even my family.I m not able to judge his character at all , but in my eyes he always chose great athetes (having big butgets helped) with no so great personality .
Too bad Turks Management on basketball is bad and only got 1 title with this coach, if the team was smarter they should have at least 3 titles.
@@pixytorres7117 success means not about title my friend. Fener played 6 Final Four with Dzelko. I think this is success. Change your perspective.
@@bercodinglive We managed to win 5 titles with him not so bad actually..
Best European coach ever, he got his first Euroleague with smallest budget in Euroleague history, with not a single foreign player, by playing most of 'home' matches in Spain cause of war in Yugoslavia. Greatest of all time, grande Zeljko! ⚫️⚪️🇷🇸⚫️⚪️
What about Jonas Kazlauskas? When Žalgiris joined eurocup in 98(was on diferent name then) won gold next year 99 he got ticket to euroleague and won gold again..💩budget but still managed to win 2 golds while climbing leagues every year
@@greengiant1017 Top5 for ne, no doubt.

Best European coach = Best Coach in the world
Journalist : Can we say you are the Mourinho of basketball ?
Obradovic : I think Mourinho is the Obradovic of football
Actually ,that is not a fair comparison. Mourinho had success with not always coaching the top clubs or with the biggest budgets. Obradovic,after Badalona was always driving (successfully) Top teams with top budgets.
My name is ZELJKO OBRADOVIC !!!!!!

i would really like to hear him tell Lebron "Fuck you Lebron James!!!" XD
He would... I seen him bench his best player after a turnover in the first offence in the game.
And here we go... I find another LeBron comment where its unnecessary
@@krp6680 damn you’re sensitive
@@krp6680 bronsexual bandwagon spotted
He would be the first who hear such words from Zeljko.
He once sent Bjelica (who was Euroleague MVP that season) to the locker room in the 4th quarter of a close game for disobedience. And they eventually won by a single point. Imagine the Bucks sending Giannis or the Nuggets sending Jokic for an early shower in the 4th quarter of a close game. Unthinkable, right?
See, this is why Obradovic would never coach in the NBA. There, players have much more power than coaches. Obradovic needs to be in full control of his players to be successful and there he wouldn't last even half a season with all those players with huge egos. But I'm thankful for that, cause he brought so much success to Athens and Greek basketball.
But it is strange in NBA they are more concern about personal stats, better personal stats - better contract, team is not most important. It is different in Europe.

Wow did you really just compare benching Bjelica to Giannis, you should never talk about basketball again lol

As a Fener fan i support also partizan because of him
@@ozansincer6135 and because of him and Bogdan I became a big Fener fan 🤗 merhaba my friend!
With all the best players I would take Euroleague 9 times, now he has 5 black players in Prtizan and cant win vs Red Star, Davidovac and Branko Lazic are fucking him.
@@drakeremoray7733 Btw. His first EL title was with Partizan 1992. When Zeljko first time became coach with youngest team in Euroleague....Watch Partizan next year now.
I grew up in Athens and I was a Panathinaikos fan. I was fortunate to follow the club back in the golden days of Obradovic. I do not think that I will ever experience again the emotions that his team gave me back then. What an era. I remember discussing with my friends that the club should built a statue to Obradovic. That' how much we admired him. Best regards from Albania.
As a Maccabi fan , I agree. we know to appreciate such a good rival. and for so many years.
I think the biggest rovalry and the most fun to watch was the basketball chess between Pini Gershon and Zeliko, and they are great friends as well.
I thought Popovich was extreme then I saw him DAMN HAHAHA I love his emotions

The NBA issue is cultural. There's no way an NBA coach could say these kind of things to his players. He would get called an insane, racist, fascist, toxic man etc. That's just not how people can coach in America. He's also right when he says the NBA doesn't give coaches the freedom they have in Europe. In the Euroleague a coach could decide to have LeBron come off the bench as a 6th man in a specific game, if he thinks it could help them win. That would never work in the NBA. Those star players would refuse to play or demand a trade or the coach would get fired.
Yeah well why would you ever bench Lebron that’s a fireable offense.
@@j-tundifanclub6565 after LBJ sprained his ankle against the pelicans, the Lakers were trying to make the POs with AD back. I'm sure LBJ could have helped them in limited minutes off the bench. But he would never accept that, also because he has an extremely long streak of games scoring at least 10 points and that would be in significant danger.
The only coach that coaches a little bit with the euro style is Popovic. As all players have said, he is not far away from Zeljko calling his players out..
hard agreed, as soon as Mr. Obradovic would deploy some good old Yugo basketball school wisdom on their asses, they'll go "but muh mental health mimimimi" and demand to be traded.
I agree with everything, but racism. I have not seen racism from any European coach until now, correct me if I am wrong. For example, in Serbian teams many foreigners, both black (mostly American) and white are really loved if they play good and show interest for Serbian culture. The best example is Charles Jenkins who is arguably our favorite foreigner and he has had Serbian passport for a couple of years now. Same goes for some other players.
I can't picture Obradovic during an NBA game timeout. 😂 "Lebron what you do ha? What you xxxx do! All xxxx your lives!! Every xxx one of you!! Yes?? Yes??"
Hahaha
As a fan of Olympiacos for many years I hated this guy! But you got to be crazy if you think he is not a fucking LEGEND! The man gave tough love to his players and made them better all the time. He made Drew Nicolas play good defense! No more words to be said here
"In your eyes, you are good guys. Fuck you everybody" hahaha, absolute legendary material
He and dušan ivkovic are the 2 best coaches in eiropean history
Rip Duda
People from Serbia, Greece, Turkey will understand this.
Željko is a old type man.
He is like old type father to those players.
He is leading them, teaching them, love them, and cursing them when they don't behave well... And the most important, he is giving his heart and soul in that.
Here, on Balkan, we still appreciate those types of father figures, but "modern" culture and society of the US, would label it like "primitive", "aggressive", etc...
We will see who will win and the end
Odlično si to objasnio. 👍
@@gorangoran6335 hvala brateee
Told it well.
if Obradovic would 've allowed to play his style of coaching in the NBA and pick his players to serve his style of playin he would have definetely create the biggest Dynasty that we had ever seen play in the league !
Dillousional and irrelevant.
He was a great but I don’t know how he would do against American teams since every time he played one he got destroyed in international play.
Most deliusional comment ever😂😂😂
@@kashhh2 because they play with American rules although the game is very different. If they play a full year eith same rules his team will win.
Excelent point !
He's not a simple coach . He's a true myth . The best coach of history , without any doubts .

If Zeljko not existed the european basketball ball would be two levels down.
Decades of top players and coaches would be in medium level without his magic.
Ivkovic also, who also is teacher if obradovic I think
Maybe in 80s or 90s that could be possible. Jordan, Malone, Isaah or Magic Johnson were enough hard to take those words from coach like Zjelko.
80's maybe Sir
jordan infamous emotional guy, dunacan i eould understand, jordan?
I frequently listen to American podcast hosts and interviewers asking people why non-American NBA stars like Luka, Giannis, Pau or Manu are "lower maintenance". Still wondering? Imagine playing for coaches like Zeljko, or Messina, or Laso and trying to act all James Harden on them...You.Are.Done.
It is really simple, if you are earning 200 mil. you have bigger leverage. I guess european football stars will not be "lower maintenance" compared to NBA stars.
People saying they would walk away. People dont understand that players like that wouldnt get invite from Zeljko. 😂
Zeljko team Zeljko rules.
We love you coach! Much love from Istanbul 🇹🇷
''you play for Panathinaikos , can you imagine ?''
He is Balkan kind of coach. Greeks, Serbs and Turks known this love and curse relationship very well.
Ζeliko , is the best coach in history of the sport.
Not only by the success, not only by the systems that he present, but mostly because of his personality.
He is a true man.
Thank you for everything coach Zelimir Obradovic, you are awesome.
Honestly he is not for the NBA. All those superstars, and their ego would not be able to tolerate Zeljko Obradovic. He has fiery temper, loves team basketball and puts the team over anything else. As much as I love to see him in the NBA, he would take NBA by storm, but NBA is catering and spoiling its superstars, he will not fit with that egoistic, superstar "me first" culture.
Gregg Popovich is 100% against this idea also . While he doesn’t have the same level of star power as Phil Jackson, he’s 100% appreciated in today’s NBA
@@problemsnearyou3863 Have you seen Popovich cursing at his players? Because Obradovich will do that if he sees his players not caring and playing to the level they are supposed to, just to wake them up. He might be misunderstood there. As a Laker fan I would love to see Obradovich being their coach and saying f bombs to Lebron, Davis and Westbrook, just to show them they have to play better.
@@nikolaininkov I’m not sure if Pop is aggressively verbal with his team or not . I do know his way of motivating his team is by being a sarcastic asshole . So he would say shit like “are you going to get a rebound today or what” . Would be cool to get a coach that’s willing to inspire the way he does . It’s different & could be something that works for certain players
@@problemsnearyou3863 Coach Popovich is also of Serbian decent, Serbs have coaching in their genes, not only basketball
@@andrej0145 I didn't know that coach Popovich is with serbian decent. That explains his style of coaching.
Zeljko represents the purest form of the sport, NBA on the other hand is a fusion of sport and show inside and outside the court. I cant imagine Zeljko being a part of that show and just shut up for the shake of someones glow (and the money that brings in the club because the franchise in the USA is on a different level). I enjoy watching both although NBA game times are harsh in Greece!
Fan of Panathinaikos... Zeliko we love u!!
„Whether you win or lose, you have to work the next morning“. He is clearly a mastermind of this game. The world is not going to stop only because you feel bad. You have to live without giving up. Always pushing forward…
We shall be very happy to live in his era.. Im sure european basketball will see other great coaches in the future, new rivalries etc, but Obradovic seems unrepeatable. His temper, his character, intelligence as a person and overall presence are purely incredible. I really hope he finishes his career by winning Euroleague title with Partizan. This would be the fate he deserves for his hard work.
As a partizan fan i cant exprese enough what madness that would creat in Belgrade by grobari
This man couldn't work in the NBA , he wpuld make NBA stars cry and be fired
The best coach thet ever and ever will be 👌🏻 there is only one ZELJKO OBRADOVIC 🇷🇸

Panathinaikos's Green Era from 1999 up to 2012 under the guidance of the G.O.A.T. of European basketball coaches, Zeljko Obradovic is undoubtfully the most succesful running period of any European team in history. Legend! ☘️💚🏀🇷🇸

Great Coach, I miss his days in Fenerbahce. Wish him much glories 🍻
GOAT BY FAR
I mean, you look at someone like Doc Rivers who by all accounts has been mediocre and still has held multiple jobs. Obradović would easily be one of the best coaches in the league - if not the best - in terms of knowledge of the game. It's just that the way the NBA game and league rules are, it would be a tough business for any GM to put together a team that could play under him. And obviously most star players simply aren't used to taking shit from their coaches like that when they're coasting. Can you imagine someone like Harden playing under him? He'd ask for a trade immediately. Giannis and maybe Dončić would be the only ones who could cope because they would have an idea of who they're dealing with. Giannis I'd say for sure would be able to do it because he's a lot like Diamantidis whom Obradović loved: a true team player and professional, with an unparalleled work ethic.
To be fair Dončič played under Laso so he can handle him. Laso is "nuts" as well :D
I think any Europen player in the US could hadle plyaing under Zeljko, since most of the Europen coaches are explosive and loud, even in the junior categories
Obradovic is godfather of one of ituidis kids if i am right. He was obradovic second man for 7-8 years.
His impact on game is insane
Go watch some celtics games from 2007 to 2013 he was an elite coach the won a championship in 07 it's just these days with social media and granted some unacceptable losses people have created the narrative that he's not a great coach when in reality he's one of the best ever in any league at any level
Thanx for this video. Greetings from Slovenia.
Coach Obradovic would go bankrupt in the NBA due to fines for "excessive language" or would land in psychiatric hospital dealing with all those divas in the NBA. Just imagine if he had to coach 2021/22 Lakers. The things he would say to media about Bron, Russ or AD I hardly dare to imagine. The NBA media would rip him apart.
Hahahaha 100 %
Thats why players rule in nba...
Because he is smart! Go Serbjia go!
I don’t care if he curses me everytime, I would definitely play for željko Obradović.
Respect Zots from Olympiacos fan!!
Jedan je Obradovic Zeljkoooo🥳🍻🙏🇷🇸
Svaka cast za trenera💪😎
14:30 - if you haven' watched this press conference yet, I advise you to do so. It has english subtitles and it's the best media conference in sport you'll ever see
Zots might never worked in the NBA but he is there. All the work, devotion, BB thinking brilliance, team playing, keeping a low profile outside the court, respect for teammates and opponents which you can see in certain players, it is there mainly because of him (and a couple of other European coatches). Don't forget Giannis grew up and played BB as a kid in 2000 - 2010 Athens. When it came to BB everything was about Zots's PAO, especially in Giannis's neighborhood. He was a God for all coatches Giannis ever had in Athens and they were trying to learn from/being like him. Also keep in mind Jokic is Serbian and Doncic from Slovenia, both former Jugoslavia in which Zots is considered a BB legent/professor.
So, with the 3 of them leading the ALL NBA 1st team maybe people in NBA should start reconsidering. Maybe not about Zots, it is probably too late. But about coatches with a similar Yugoslavian/Eastern European/Greek mentality and mindset.
Yugoslavian school of BB is legentary and Zots is the GOAT. Although as PAO's coach served my team (AEK Athens) many bitter moments :-)...
Great video!! Well done 👏🏼
Appreciate the feedback 🙏
I would agree that in the NBA coaches don't seem to coach, they seem to manage players. As a coach myself, I agree you have to be able to coach your team, not be part of a management group!
I think you can translate this. Hvala na ovako lepom videu o najboljem treneru na svetu.
This LEGEND managed to make people frome Greece, Turkey and Serbia, and maybe whole Europe agree on one thing. HE is the BEST. He managed something noone ever will repeat. He created something out of nothing for so many times now. He's living legend. AND YET, there are some so-called "Serbs" , supporters of other basketball teams, that will insult this legend and his legacy each time they have a chance, while their biggest succes is nowhere near his. Zeljko, znamo svi da si dosao u svoju kucu da uzmes svoju 10. titulu i da tu stavis tacku, i dace Bog da jednog dana docekamo to, a misevima i prodanim dusama zelim da sa nama podele taj dan i uspeh, jer znam ce sigurno pratiti svaki tvoj , ili nas, korak. A true living legend, welcome back to Partizan!
I really enjoy this video. Thank you

he is back !
No hesitation . He is the best
If we would explain why he didn't move to NBA with one sentence, that would be "NBA isn't too much for him, he is too much for the NBA". In the NBA, Gregg Popovich and Quinn Snyder are considered angry and they would look like as innocent as babies next to Zeljko.
😂😂😂
We have angry coaches but no guns on street. Strange world and rules.
Best of best Obradovic :)
NBA is not ready for Zeljko Obradovic
He is one and only!!! I remember when we played with Real,he was couch there back then,all stadium was applaud to him!!! We were Partizan,of course,his home team!!! That much everyone respected him,then Even when he plays against us you must to show him love and respect,cause we all know that he's our man, Partizan child!!! And once again today he's one of us,Partizan in heart always!!!
There's a coach in NBA, who has similar coaching style to Obradovic. A coach, who also has Serbian background: Gregg Popovic.
He is the best coach ever who didn't get an offer to work in NBA.
Because NBA can't afford a legend like him.If he would have coached in NBA,today we would speak for the greatest dinasty of NBA.
He would dethroned every coach and every dinasty.
We would not talk about Michael Jordan because he would became a normal player.
That's the truth,but NBA is trying everything to keep the primadonna of 🏀.Those NBA matches which finish with high point scores,with European coaches it would finish with mid scores
And with 5 sec left, they stop playing and start shaking hands as it is over. In Europe, it is not over with 0.7 secs. Ask Cibona.
From Olympiacos fan, legend,NBA,i am sorry guys really he doesn't need to go in NBA,he is amazing but amazing coach,there is no another coach like him(especially in NBA ,aa just a little Greg Popovic),DUDA and Zeljko LEGENDS,no words
Greg is a Serb, too. LOL.
Bravo 🖤🤍🙏🏻
The Euroleague is so cool and should be more popular in America than it currently is.
Zeljko is GOAT!

Pitty you won just one of those three finals but you did win one - very few teams can say that. You are legends now. In my place our handball team were european champions in '73 and still are LEGENDS.
The best ever💙💛
Very Nice Coach👌
Željko Obradovic is an absolute legend, he represents everything that Serbia is all about in the beautiful game of basketball.
Immense Pride, unmeasurable confidence and a genius mind for the game of basketball.
NBA is a player and therefore marketing driven league, it is the competition packaged in the entertainment product.
So if people in the USA think of Greg Popovic as a controversal and unortodox yet one of the best coaches ever in the NBA, I could see Željko Obradovic doing the same and potentially even greater achievements, because he is Greg on steroids in terms of the respect he has to have from his players, and the methods with which he achieves it.
It is just the on/off the court drama that would come with his methods, and the question if the league was willing to give a chance to someone who would for sure be presented as a villain.
Simply the GOAT
Πραγματικός ηγέτης 👏
