Dusko Vujosevic’s legacy: Quotes, philosophy and the soul of Partizan

Dusko Vujosevic was not just a coach on the sidelines, he was a teacher of life, a man whose words often carried more weight than the game itself.

His statements were not just phrases. They were messages. Lessons. Principles.

Basketball did not just lose a coach. It lost a system, a philosophy, and a man who showed generations what hard work, discipline, and belief in the process truly mean.

For the London 2012 Olympics, we had a temporary £40million, 12,000 seat arena that was built and completed in 2011.

It was dismantled in 2013.

Perhaps the biggest failure around the Olympic 'legacy'.

👀 Before the Barcelona - Tenerife game, Tomas Satoransky compared Huertas' ageless showings to those of LeBron James!

🇧🇷🍷 Later the same day, Huertas led Tenerife in a win over Barcelona with 22 points, 6 rebounds, and 6 assists!

Instead of trying to create “three level scorers”

Maybe help your kids play off two feet and dribble/ pass/ finish with both hands. And consistently make open shots.

That would be great.

🗣️ He showed up every single day off, and that's why he is who he is. That's the reason he's where he is and why he won everything!

Vanja Marinkovic revealed something about Zeljko Obradovic that he had never seen in his career before – that kind of dedication 👀⚫⚪

@AndyBorrie Great point. Whilst youth NT’s ‘success’ shouldn’t be solely judged on results (better evaluated in many other metrics), the results (over an extended period of time) are a good indicator system ‘health’. How many players of standard? Can they compete physically? Tactically?
